Preliminary Schedules No Longer Requested From Upperclassmen

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

Preliminary study cards for the fall term will not be required of Sophomores and Juniors this spring, Sargent Kennedy '28, Registrar of the College, disclosed yesterday.

Kennedy said the Faculty Administrative Board recommended the change because the official announcement of fall courses is not available in the spring. In addition, students often radically change their course plans during the summer, and tend to fill the cards haphazardly because the choices may be changed in the fall. As a result, statistics compiled from the forms are inaccurate.

Spring study cards are still required of Freshmen, Kennedy emphasized. "The cards are necessary for Freshmen because they are in the process of choosing a field of concentration." Study cards lead to a more careful consideration of students' programs in future years, he noted.
