Petition Seeks
Exam Delay
The continuation of the University
strike for the remainder of the semester
will be decided to a large extent by the
threat of upcoming final examinations,
and it was in this light that the Law
School formulated a petition dealing with
this problem.
"We propose that the Law School not
hinder a student from embarking on a course of
action he deems morally necessary by threatening
that student with the possibility of
irreparable injury." Meaning that in the present
situation, examinations would interfere with a
student's "academic freedom."
They propose:
1. That examinations be delayed until fall
semester; or
2. That any student desiring to take
regularly scheduled examinations may do so; or
3. That a student may not take examinations
and, at the option of an instructor,
receive a grade for the course if determinable.
