NEW STUDENT UNION PROJECT ON CAMPUS
GAINS FAVOR AS ENDORSEMENTS POUR IN
Dr. Graves Reports Tremendous Success at
Occidental; Activity Building Integral
Part of Student Life
Meeting inslant'approvnl among students, the preliminary
nnouncement of the projected new student union building here
ignali-ed the opening of a campaign whose by-line Is, "Give the
Inion a Trial—It Will Pay." Studciil lenders were elated by the
espouse attending the initial shot of a strenuous campaign to be.
Dr. T/iomas Defines Limited Status;
Outlines Basis For DisquaHtication
Following some confusion among students concerning their
status In college after grades were received, The Collegian
sought a statement 'from the president explaining the details
of probation and provisional status, their affect upon the standing of sudents, and the conditions under whi-h they may be
removed. The following, explaining the details of limited status
and basis for disqualification, is a quotation from Dr. F. W.'
Thomas, president of the college.
"The request from the editor of The Collegian that a statement be prepared, setting forth the distinctions between provisional and regular students, and defining the basis for disqualification, seems to reflect a rather general interest and uncertainty regarding these rtiattcr-.. On this account the follow-
ing statement is intended to make clear the most recent regula-
ions of the cabinet with regard to satisfactory status.
"Dear admission requires 12 recommending units on the high
school record. Any less number of recommending units will plact
the student, if admitted at all, upon provisional standing. This
provisional status may be removed by a record which shows at
least is honor points earned during the first semester or bj a
clear "C" average, that Is, no honor point deficiencies at the end
of any semester thereafter. Provisional standing must be removed
and clear admission earned before the junior certificate may be,
secured, or a recommendation given for admission to the Unlver-
ir other collegiate institutions.
'Hereafter there will be no distinction made between regular and provisional students with regard to the scholarship basis
for disqualification. Any student who in his first semester fails
10 units of work or lo make at least a "D" average on
program carried, is disqualified. A student who docs not
ualification but whose average marks show an honor
point deficiency of at least 10 is placed on probation, and If at
time while on probation a further deficiency of 5 points is
red, disqualification results.
"The disqualification of a provisional student is regularly
■i.ianent one. This means that a low high school record fol-
I by an unsatisfactory college record indicates lack of promise
college student. Only by a satisfactory showing in the Col-
lege Aptitude Test or by supplementary preparation at some other
ill Indicate better promise of college success,
considered for re-admission. A student who
imission may be permitted re-admission at
ster following disqualification, provided thi
intervening time has been satisfactorily spent.
"Some interesting experiments are being conducted at two
different California universities with regard in a more satisfac-
batil for admission. The University of California has re-
I its entrance requircmenL-. so that DOW only 8 recommend-
nits are required, but these must include A and Ii marks in
etna':.-«, Science, antl Foreign Languages. The University of
tent I'nlifornia has admitted a special s.ilion of stuilentM
; high school records were not recorom ending, in order tc
thi-ir achievemenLs in college under th, BMSl favorable con.
m which the University can provjde.
Although there is still disagreement among the higher in.
ions as to the best kiwi of admission resulaUont, the rules
ii effect at Fresno Slate are in agreement with Ihe best prac-
With the opening of bids and final awarding of c
Saturday at Sacramento, the last delay in
Fresno Stale college's new library building has been removed, and
work on the structure to be erected at a total cost of $260,000
will probably begin by February 20, Dr. F. W. Thomas said yes-
