An important change in the schedule of language examinations has been made by the college office this year. Heretofore both elementary examinations were given at the same hour and both reading knowledge examinations came at a corresponding hour the following day. This made it impossible to take advanced or elementary examinations both in French and German. Now a student may register for elementary and advanced examinations in both languages.
The series of four examinations will start on Monday, October 1, when an elementary German examination will be given at 5 o'clock in the New Lecture Hall. The elementary French examination will be held at the same time the following day in Emerson D. The first reading knowledge test will be in German and will be held at 5 o'clock on Wednesday, October 3, in Harvard 5 and 6. The series of language examinations will close the next day with a French reading knowledge examination at 5 o'clock in the New Lecture Hall and other rooms which are to be announced.
The College requires all students who entered after June 1920, to show a reading knowledge of French or German and an elementary knowledge of the other language. If the requirement is not satisfied by the end of the Sophomore year a student automatically is put on probation.
Applications to take the examinations must be made in writing at University 4 on or before Thursday, September 27.
