Report on Cul
System Given
By Needham
The system of class cuts an<
absences for students will remai
the same this semester as last, ac
cording to Capt. R. C. Needham
registrar.
For the benefit of new students
and those unfamiliar with the
system, The Gamecock reprints
the fdllowing important sections
of the attendance regulation
guide:
"The number of unexcused ab
sences allowed in a course is es.
tablished at twice the number of
class meetings per week. These
allowed unexcused absences are
considered ample to take care of
any emergency or illness of short
duration. They are not designed
to be used for the convenience or
pleasure of the student.
".No excuse for absences of two
consecutive class days or less will
be approved except for absences
incurred while representing the
university in an authorized ac
tivity.
"For absences of longer dura
tion than two consecutive class
days, approved excuse cards will
be issued only for (1) illness, ap
proved by the university physi
cian whether or not attended by
him, or (2) marriage, birth, death,
or serious illness in the immedi
ate family, approved by the ap
propriate official, or (3) absence
while representing the university
in an authorized activity. Ex
cuses for absences for other rea
sons will not be considered.
"No credit will be allowed for
a course in which a student fails
to make an attendance of 75 per
cent."
