REGULATIONS.

The following regulations, adopted to define the policy of the Faculty,
are published for the information and guidance of the Students:

1. Practice-courses as well as lecture-courses must be conducted
under the Honor System. The student who submits any work to be
graded is considered to submit it under pledge.

2. When the lecture-course and the associated practice-course are
given in the same term of the same year, no student will be admitted to
examination on the lecture-course until he has completed at least three-fourths
of the practice-course.

3. No student will be admitted to any practice-course unless he is
at the same time pursuing the associated lecture-course, or has already
received credit for the same.

4. No student will be admitted to the graduating examination on a
lecture-course unless he has been present at more than half the lectures
in that course.

5. In the technical courses in Engineering (i. e., courses not given
in the College) term-grades shall not be averaged; except that the term-grades
for Freshman Drawing (600-601-700) may be averaged for first-year
men only, provided no mark is below 65.

6. The pass-mark in every course is 75. If a student's term-grade
in any course is less than 75, but more than 65, he may be admitted by
the Faculty to re-examination at the beginning of the next session, provided
he has completed all the associated practical work of the course.

7. No student who fails to make 75 on re-examination shall be
granted another examination on the course until he has again attended
lectures on that course.

8. Special examinations are not given except by reason of sickness
on the day of examination, attested by the written certificate of a reputable
physician, or for other like providential cause. In every case they
must be validated by special vote of the Faculty.

9. A student whose term-grades average less than 40 for all the
courses in which he is registered shall be at once dropped from the rolls.
If his average is above 40 with no mark above 65, he is placed on probation.

10. A student on probation, who in the next term makes less than
65 on each and all his courses, shall be at once dropped from the rolls.

Upon the completion of the four years' course as defined in any one
of the Programmes of Study and the presentation of an acceptable graduating
thesis, the Faculty will award to any student in regular and honorable
standing the appropriate Degree of Civil Engineer, Mechanical
Engineer, Electrical Engineer, Chemical Engineer, or Mining Engineer.
In each programme will be found the Topics of Study for the several
years. The hours for lectures and laboratory exercises and the dates
for the examinations are given in the Schedule.

The student who adheres strictly to any one of the above programmes
will escape all conflicts of lecture hours, laboratory periods,
and examination days.
