The Handbook Committee is working on
the handbook for the school year 1960-
1961. The Administrative Committee in
preparing the administrative regulations
for next year has already voted to keep
the same policy regarding dancing and
smoking for the women students. The Ad
ministrative Committee is working out an
administrative demerit system to go into
effect next year which will apply to the
violation of administrative regulations.
At the present the Student Government
Association is administering a demerit
system to the student government and
dormitory rules. The administration is
aware of some violation of administrative
regulations, and there has been no penalty
system for such violations. Students,
under the new administrative penalty
system, receiving a specified number of
administrative demerits will be considered
on disciplinary probation and will be
warned as to their standing in the college.
The new demerit system of the adminis
tration will work separately from the de
merit system of the Student Government
Association.
