Author Description

Excerpt from The Gopher, 1921 The first Students' Work Committee was organized in the College of Science, Literature and the Arts nearly twenty years ago. A regulation was passed by the faculty that any student who failed to pass at the end of any term in sixty per cent Of the work registered for, was automatically dropped from the Uni versity. The purpose of the Students' Work Committee was to hear appeals for reinstatement, to decide whether the failure was due to inability or lack Of endeavor. In attempting to reach such a decision it became necessary to go outside of the class for information, questions as to health, financial condi tions, maturity, home life and any other information which might help in arriving at a just decision.
