LEXINGTON,

KY., WEDNESDAY,

5, 1901

By BILL BAXTER
Kernel Staff Writer
Dr. M. M. White; dean of

the College of Arts and Sciences, is not in favor of
changes in the University's
grading system at this time,
although he believes the system will change itself.
Dean White said last week
that a "P and P" system such as
is being tried at some other colleges "would be detrimental In
many ways."
"With just two marks, passing
and failing, both the student and
the teacher might have an easier
time of it," the dean said, "but
how's the student with a transcript full of P's and F's going
to transfer credits to another
school, or get into graduate
school?"
Dean White admitted that several of the Arts and Sciences professors are In favor of such a
system, and that if the faculty
voted to install such a system,
It would be done.
"But I'm against It," he said,
"for four reasons: first, I think
the student is entitled to know
how he Is doing, both in comparison to a perfect standing and
with his fellow students.
"Second, I think he should
have some kind of a definite
transcript to admit him to graduate and professional schools.
"Third, the grade report Is an
incentive to the student to do
better work.
"Finally, what about the boy
who does poorly his first year
at the University and then makes
A's and B's in his next three
years? There needs to be some
way to show his initiative in the
face of low marks, and his excellent recovery."
"I'll tell you something else,

which you won't believe," the
dean smiled. "They need those
grades for their automobile insurance. I had
bor in my office the other day who stood to
save $20 if I would verify the
fact that he had been In the
top 20 percent of his class."
Dean White said that there
was an argument against grading, but not such a strong one.
"Say you've got a boy who makes
a C in a class, but that's the best
he can do. One the other hand,
a boy who could make an A
slides through and draws a B.
Who deserves the better grade?
Why, the boy who did his best,
the one with the C!"

Dr. White shook his head. "But
P and F isn't the answer. I
know, for one thing, that a lot
of schools have tried it and gone
back to grades. Oberlin used to
do it, but at the same time they
privately ranked every student
in the school. I admit West
Point ranks its students, too, but

can

you imagine

us trying

to

rank 10,000 students? Not with
a P and P system!"
Dean White said that although
at first glance it would seem that

but the honors student would
benefited by such a system,
doubted if any large group
students would be helped.
"If all we had to worry about
was the honors student, we could
Just give three grades," he said,
"II for honors, and P and F.
Some graduate schools do that
even now. But you can do that
because the 2.0 student isn't in
grad school."
"As for the 2.0 student at UK,
I don't think a P and F system
would help him that much. He
might fool himself into thinking
he can wait to the last minute
and still pass a course. And as
creative stufor the

make as high grades as the

like getting out of jail," Mrs.
Ray Fields, project resident, said.
She, like mosi other current
occupants, had moved into the
new units shortly after their
completion last August.
"I wish I could have raised my
family here. My eight children
grew up with none of the advantages we have here now,"
said Mr. C. Wells, a resident since
Aug. 6.
Many of the residents felt that

executive director of muSnider,

Snider said residents were required only to pay their rent on
time, keep the apartments clean,
and not bother the neighbors,
and not keep pets in the dwellings.
Snider and his secretary occasionally check units to see that
are
standards of cleanliness
maintained. Residents Interviewed said that these inspections
were fair and necessary. Most expressed the feeling that those
who did not take care of their
units did not deserve to stay In
them.
"The Inspections are part of
an educatiouul program to teach
people to care for the new housing," said (Mayor) Dora Baker,
Walkertown's fliot resident.
The Inspections are conducted
on no regular basis and tend to
be Infrequent.
Since the opening of the project, five families have been asked
to vacate for continued violation of rules.
Residents said that application
procedures were relatively simple.

Although an average rent of
a month must be maintained, Snider said that no applications had been turned down
because prospective residents
could not pay that sum. Rents
range from a $27 minimum to a
$67 maximum.

pression. The volume also reveals
Clay's concern for his family and
hi continued interest in Transylvania I'niversity.
Elected In 1823 to the House of
Representatives and to the speakership of the 18th Congress, Clay
resumed his leadership In national affairs. His speeches indicate zeal for Latin American independence. He applauded the
principles of the Monroe Doc
trine and his regard for the ideals
of liberty extended to the Spanish
and Greek revolutions. He also
made major addresses on internal
Improvements and the tariff.
A continuing
thread in the
volume Is the presidential campaign of 1824. Clay's correspondence shows the changes in political techniques brought about by
the emergence of the Jacksonian
type of campaign.
The volume ends with Clay in
the powerful but uncomfortable
position of being able, by throwing his support to one of three
candidates before the House of
to choose the

States.
The Clay papers include about
10,000 documents collected during 11 years of research by historians at I'K.

* More Room
For Criticism
Moving to protect itself from adverse publicity, tlie Intel fraternity
Council may have given cause for
even more criticism of itself and the
system it represents.
By advising a Kernel reporter he
vas not to take notes at Thursday's
IFC meeting, the council seemed to
be striking out against Kernel editorial policy specifically a Kernel editorial of Jan. 28 advocating more
r
activities for independents.
Rather than recognizing the editorial as a challenge to the largest
segment of campus population some
75 percent the fraternities may have
Leen challenged themselves by this
admonition to independents.
By challenging a reporter's privilege to take his own notes and keep
his own record, and by utilizing the
"press release," the IFC moves within
its authority. Still, some might question the wisdom of this view.
It seems somewhat surprising that
Assistant Dean of Men Fred Strache
expressed agreement with If'C's views.
Jle told a Kernel reporter that the action was taken so the IFC would have
'"some
discretion"
over fraternity
Hews.

This form of news relationship is
being established, according to Mr.
Strache, because IFC matters are difficult to discuss under the
system. An unreasonable critic
might charge that IFC has something
to hide.
.
Fraternities were born in the era
of the gentleman's C, social castes, and
jhe like. Although these still exist

Kernels
Everybody's giving the theater a
black eye. I wish people realized that
they don't have to go to brokers and
don't have to pay fantastic prices for
tickets. They can buy tickets to any
ol our shows at any of our box offices.

In quite a long experience now, I
liave often found that a man who
trusts nobody is apt to be the kind
of man that nobody trusts. Harold
Macmillan, M.P.

to some extent, they are merely a
fading image of a beautiful yesteryear.
Changes in our way of life have
driven colleges, universities, and other
segments of academic life to face a
serious reappraisal of purpose and
method.
Faculty, administration, students,
and athletics have not escaped this
critical examination. All must justify
their existence in this primarily academic environment.
Greeks seemingly should be exposed to the same pointed questions
concerning their purpose and place
in the scheme of higher education.
We are aware of the expressed
Greek goals of service, scholarship,
and brotherhood. We agree that these
are indeed noble. However, some say
these noble aims are many time forsaken for the less noble and the more
easily achieved.
Greeks also have been called to
answer criticisms of their methods of
selection. They are such that Greeks
choose only those whom they feel will
most easily adapt to the groups' requirements. Might not the fledgling
Greek thus find himself subjugated
to the group, losing his own individuality?
The system takes an aspiring
young student and informs him that
he must measure up to certain standards in order to remain a member.
He is resjwnslble for the welfare of
the group, but the group perhaps has
no similar responsibility to the individual.
There is nothing wrong with a
group that is primarily socially oriented or has restrictive membership.
Man is a social creature. In fact, no
college or university can escape the
social realities. However, neither tan
we escape the University goal: a dedication to learning.
We do not suggest that fraternities and sororities be abolished. They
fulfill a necessary social function. But
this role should not result in control
of the campus by this group.
It seems reasonable to ask of the
whole Greek system that it face the
problems of today. This involves an
attempt to revise and revamp the
acsystem to meet the
ademic orientation of university and
college life.
