As will be seen, the new regulations of the faculty regarding degrees with distinction at graduation have made some very desirable changes. Heretofore these degrees have been granted almost wholly on the basis of As received. The present scheme, however, offers a much fairer method of counting college work. By this method it is possible, for example, for a student to receive a magna cum laude although he has not received As in half of his college work-that is, by receiving the equivalent of fifteen full As and Bs. And this is only an instance. The same general fairness runs though the entire plan. The arrangement is on all accounts an estimable one, and ought to receive the praise of every serious student.
