To the extent of my un

awhere in "The Green Street

qually invalid as they represent a

In conclusion, the SGA may be

TO THE EDITOR:
The function of all universities is
education. "Completed"
education is the only true
evaluation of a student's standing.
Therefore, this attempted hours
nonsense is a free ride for
freeloaders.
Is the student who attemnt* nnH
completes 30 hours or more to be
relegated the status equal to one
who only completed half of his
attempted 30 hours? If so, what is
the criteria?
This ruling not only hurt the
transfer student, but also the
continuing students at USC.
