Drop Date Nears
The Registrar reminds all students and staff that Tuesday, March 24, is the last day to drop a course without a grade. All courses dropped after March 24, must receive a grade of WE or WP.
A grade of WE counts in the quality point index the
same as an E grade; a grade of WP, however, dops not count in the quality point index.
Instructors are required to indicate whether a student is passing or failing on the drop slip for all courses dropped after. March 24.
“Their past record is certainly enough to qualify the team,” stated Mayor Richard.
Barry Richard and Neal Sonnet, both graduating seniors, felt that the regional committee knew Miami wanted to attend the tournament and make a bid for the national competition.
“The technicality they rejected us for is irrelevant,’’ said Barry, “we have a good team and they wanted to keep us from going to the national competition.”
President Henry King Stanford had protested to Christophersen and asked him to poll the committee members a second time for a reversal of the decision not to admit Miami to the tournament. Christophersen suggested to the committee that two more teams be added to the competition, but was turned down.
"I am extremely disappointed that our excellent debating team was not selected for the regional tournament,” concluded Dr. Stanford.
