ALLOW GENERAL FINAL EXAMS.

MAY REQUIRE STUDENTS TO PASS SPECIAL TEST IN FIELD OF CONCENTRATION.

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

At the last Faculty meeting it was voted that any Division or Department may hold a general examination at the end of the college course for any man concentrating in the Division. The examination is to be of a general type covering the work done by the man in the department and probably will be similar to the general examination now given in the Division of History, Government, and Economics.

The decision as to whether the departments will adopt the plan remains with the department heads and several have already tentatively accepted the idea.

Only Group II Excepted.

If the expected plan goes through, examinations will be given in all departments except those listed under Group II in the elective pamphlet, which include the sciences as well as mathematics. Members of the Class of 1922 will be the first men to be affected by the new plan, since men in the present three upper classes will continue under the system which is now in use.
