DEAN LEWIS TO CAUTION FIRST CLASS VIOLATORS

Fifty Juniors and Seniors, who have seriously abused the first and last class ruling in the opinion of the University, will receive warnings from Dean Lewis later in the week, but will not be placed on disciplinary probation. This decision was reached at the meeting of the Administration Board yesterday.

If the mid-year grades of any of these men show that they have not met the standards required by their courses, however, they will immediately be placed on scholastic probation. The warning, in other words, will be placed on their records for future reference.

Sophomores Not Affected

This ruling does not affect Sophomores, many of whom have already been subject to disciplinary action, an official stated last night at University Hall. Since they were definitely omitted from the Hanford statement on the abolition of attendance records for advanced courses, the official saw no reason why a member of the Class of 1937 should have construed that it applied to him.

It is made clear that stringent measures will be taken after the Easter vacation and that the sole reason for leniency in the present instance is due to the "general misunderstanding." Whether attendance is taken in a course or not, each man will be obligated to attend his first and last class. Any detected infringements of the rule will be subject to disciplinary action.
