Interpretation of Rules for Degrees.

The fact that the new rules concerning the granting of the degrees of bachelor and master of arts have failed to provide for all possible cases has caused some confusion among candidates for these degrees. The possibility of receiving a degree in the middle of the year has contributed to this result, and has led to the necessity for further action by the Faculty and governing boards. Until the statutes have been made more comprehensive, official interpretation of the rules will enforce the following: the degree of A.M. will not be given until one full year has elapsed since the degree of A.B. was granted.
