SCHOLARSHIP STANDARDS RAISED

Ruling by Princeton Faculty to Affect Undergraduate Activities.

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

The Princeton faculty has again raised the scholarship requirements for students, particularly for students participating in athletics and other extra-curriculum activities. In the future all men of the three upper classes who receive mid-term warnings in studies covering half the number of hours per week which they are carrying, will become in eligible for the remainder of the term for athletics and for the other undergraduate organizations which are run on a competitive basis.

This will be particularly hard on athletes, as the warnings come out in the fall just before the beginning of the basketball, hockey, had swimming seasons, and in the spring, they break into the middle of the baseball season. The new rule will not affect football, as the fall warnings do not come out until the close of the season.
