Academic Affairs Committee Reviewed Policies The Academic Affairs Committee For This Year Included: KLEF T TO RIGHT AROUND TABLEQ Chris Bremer, Gerald Jindra, Gerald White, 'W ,x Fr. Owen Blum and Fr. Michael Crosby reviewed existing policies. In an effort to keep Quincy College up to date on aca- demic policies, the Academic Affairs Committee made many decisions. Among the most important and time consuming were those dealing with policies concerning class attendance, final exams, academic privilege and comprehensive exams. The committee decided that class attendance should become the responsibility of the student, eliminating academic privilege. Compre- hensive and final exams were left up to the department. For many students, this meant that the dreaded com- prehensive exam was no longer mandatory. Al Bogdan, Fr. Owen Blum, Fr. Michael Crosby, Fr. Tom Brown, Gary Carter, James Link, Dave Costigan and Ridgely Pierson. -,-.- . u-1 While Gary Carter, registrar, kept track of what went on, Fr.
