Council Continues
Frosh Hours Study
Freshman Council yesterday set ,up a committee to further in
vestigate giving two special 11 o'clock permissions to second semes
ter women with high scholastic averages.
Council':: unanimously voted to give some recognition to women
who make good averages with their first semester, but it has not been
decided Whether this would be
special hours.
The committee, headed by Mar
garet Boyd, second semester edu
cation major, will compare Uni
versity : hours with freshman
hours at other schools and take
a poll in the freshman dormitories
to get student views.
Each council member will ask
15.10 20 women in her dorm unit
the following questions:
1. Are you in favor of grant
ing two special .11 &clocks to
second semester women : : :with
high scholastic averageil -
2. If so, what grade do yob.
think should be the basis for
giving these permissions?
3. If not, what sort of recog
nition do you think should be
given for high scholastic aver
age?
Patricia J. Thompson,• assistant
to the dean of women, said ;the
average in the poll 'Should be in
terms of letter grades, because
confusion would occur if numbers
were used' and the - new grading
system is adopted.
It will be stressed to incoming
women students next year that
some recognition will be given for
high averages. This will allow the
committee to continue its work
next semester rather than coming
to a final decision this semester.
Miss Thompson asked the pro
posal not be pushed through in a
hurry as information would have
to be gathered and voted on by
council Tuesday in order to pre
sent it to the final Woman's Stu
dent Government Ass o ciation
Senate meeting Wednesday.
Vote on whether to. accept the
proposal was split five to five.
Because ' the feeling was - not
strong in one direction, .the com
mittee was • formed, to - study the
situation.
.
Janet Reid, town repres enta
tive, felt granting special hours
would not be f air - to town
women who had made. good av-.
erages, as they are under • par
ental control on hours. 'Barbara
Stock, council chairman, said if
*hese hours were given to fresh
men, •upperclasswomen would
have the• right to demand late
permissions for the .same aver
age.
This was answered by Barbara
Hendel, second semester chemis
try major, who said upperclass
women in WSGA had sent this as
a proposal in the first place, thus
giving their approval to the idea.
