The following statistics of the comparative midyear grades of concentrators in Sociology for 1932 and average grades of the college as a whole, were given out recently by Professor P. A. Sorokin, chairman of the department. Six per cent of the Sociology students were in group I, three times as large as the two per cent for the entire College. Other percentages in the different groups, Sociology being given first, the College average second, are as follows: II, 20 and 7; III, 8 and 15; IV, 16 and 20; V, 33 and 30; VI, 9 and 9; Others, 8 and 16. Fifty-three per cent of the course students are in the first three groups, while the College at large places in the first four groups only 51 per cent.
These figures, Professor Sorokin said, are not to be taken as indicating that higher marks are given in his department than in others.
