Blackstone College for Girls 17 Crass EXAMINATIONS AND GRADING SYSTEM A passing grade is indicated by the numbers above 75. The grades 95 through 100 signify that the work for t he term has been excellent; 90 through 94, that it has been very good; 85 through 89, that it has been average; 80 through 84, that it has been below average; 75 through 79, that it has been just passing. The grades 70 through 74 indicate failure for the term with the possibility, however, of having them averaged in at the end of the session; and if the average is then above 75, credit is received. A grade below 70 indicates unconditional failure, and cannot be averaged in, but the work for that term must be repeated by attending class again for the required number of hours and receiving a passing grade; or by taking special coach classes. Besides frequent written tests in each class, there is a general written examination given at the close of each of the three terms. All exami- nations are limited to three hours, and regular class work is suspended during the examination period. The examination grade is combined with the student’s class and test averages, but is never counted more than one-third of the final average for the term. A student who has made an Incomplete on any term must remove the Incomplete before the beginning of the second term following or the Incomplete becomes a Failure. If failure for a term has been caused by the final examination grade, one special examination only may be given to remove the Failure. Such special examinations must be given not later than two months after the first examination. Special examinations must be arranged through the office of the Registrar, but only after the payment of a fee of two dollars for each examination can such permission be given. TERM REPORTS Reports are sent to parent or guardian at the end of the first six weeks, in January, in April, and in June. This includes a record of the student’s examination grade and the student’s standing for the term. Other information may be included if it is deemed important. CURRICULA OFFERED Students expecting to continue their study beyond the Junior College should plan their courses to meet degree requirements, espe- cially the requirements of the college or university to which they intend to transfer. Those who intend to terminate their education with the Junior College are allowed a certain amount of freedom in arranging their programs.
