To the Editors of The Crimson:
I am dismayed that the cornell Guide (sic) has repeated this year the wholly erroneous statement on page 9 that the Faculty of Arts and Sciences has voted to grant degree credit for all Advanced Placement awards. This was totally incorrect in last year's edition and remains incorrect now.
For all undergraduates, except transfer students and those who were eligible for and accepted Sophomore Standing upon matriculation, the degree course requirement is sixteen courses. No course credit or course reduction is permitted for Advanced Placement awards for such awards only placement not credit is offered.
I earnestly hope no student will place his degree in jeopardy by planning a program on the erroneous and misleading information printed in the last paragraph of the section entitled "Advanced Standing" in the 1971 Comff Guide (sic). I trust this paragraph will be deleted in future editions. Sincerely yours, David A. Harnett
