Attention Faculty
To: AU students
From: Superintendent (Dean)
Subject: Standard procedure instruction on death of a student
It has recently been brought to our attention that many students
have been dying (while) studying for apparently no good reason—
furthermore said students are refusing to fall over even after they
are dead.
This practice must stop at once! On and after November 1. 1969
any student found sitting - up after he or she has died will be dropped
at the end of the term without any investigation ... under Regulation
29, section 8.
'The following procedure will be strictly adhered to:
If, aftr seven hours it is noticed that a student has not moved
Dr changed position, the instructor will investigate.
Because of the highly sensitive nature of our students and the
Dlose resemblance between death and their natural studying attitude,
the investigation should move quietly so as not to wake the student--
he or she should be asleep.
• If some doubt exists as to the true condition, extending the list
)f answers to the student is the final lest. If the student does not
reach for it, it may be reasonably assured that death has occured.
Note: In some cases the instinct is so strongly developed that a
spasmodic clutching reflex may occur. Don't let this fool you.
In all cases a signed statement by the dead person -must be filled
n on a special form provided for this purpoSe. Fifteen copies will be
required. Three for the. Main Campus—two to the deceased. The others
will be promptly lost in our file department_
