Chase Makes Important p
Rules Announcement h
An important change in the rules
governing absences made by the fae- |
ulty lately, has been announced by t(
John A. Chase, Jr., registrar. r,
Paragraph seven, page :i?> in the s
catalogue has been changed to read
that absences for one or two days n
from each class on account of illness
will be excused when certified by tin
University Infirmary, parents, or phy- v
sicians. Last year the rule read that n
before a student's absence could be >
excused on account of sickness, an ill- h
ness of three days or more had to he ti
incurred. , g
Other than this change, the cata- 11
loguc can be referred to in regard to P
