Committee Resolution

"The Faculty of Arts and
Sciences has provided a reading
period of no more than five
class days to be used by
students for thorough review
and some independent work
after the course is over and
before final examinations
begin," the resolution
explains.

Because of fewer class-days
on the 1973-74 school calendar,
reading days for next year are
being reconsidered. "Still," a
similar resolution approved
Oct. 31, 1972 stated, "it would
seem highly desirable to
protect the students from
quizzes, papers, etc. in the last
few days of the semester."
