Show be approved by the Dean of Men or the Dean of Women and returned to the Registrar's Office. If withdrawal from school is made after the sixth week, the Registrar determines the scholastic rating of the student in each course registered. For a grade of C or better, a W is entered in the student's permanent record; otherwise, E, a failure, is recorded. Good Standing. A student is in good standing on Weber College records who has been honorably released from the College and is eligible to return or transfer to another school. Incompletes: Incompletes are permissible only in instances wherein the student has been absent for illness or is delinquent for other thoroughly justifiable causes, and in such instances only when a grade of passing work prior to the absence is revealed by the class record. The giving of an Incomplete is further contingent upon the student's having made known the cause of absence to the instructor, prior to the issuance of grades. It is further provided that any Incomplete given under such ruling shall appear finally on the records as an "E" unless made up during the first succeeding quarter in which the course is given. Changing of grades: Grades entered with the Registrar shall be unalterable except in instances in which written explanation to the Admission, Credits, and Graduation Committee, or to the Administration, is expressly made by the teacher concerned, and then, only in the event that error in recording or computing grades is shown to be the cause for the change. Make-up Examinations: No make-up examinations are allowed except on the payment of a one-dollar ($1.00) fee to the Treasurer and the presentation of the receipt of such payment to the instructor concerned. Work Program: A student who is working for the College or elsewhere should so inform his counselor so that a satisfactory in-school and out-of-school work program may be effected. A well-planned and a well-balanced program of work and of studies is most important as it presents a situation conducive to success and greatly reduces the chances of failure. Unsatisfactory work: A student who is doing unsatisfactory work is interviewed during the quarter by members of the guidance committee. Constructive assistance is given the student in meeting his educational and personal problems. Probation: Students failing to maintain a C average or better are on probation during the subsequent quarter and may also be limited in registration. Students who fail to meet the social standards of conduct of Weber College may be placed on probation. A probationary period, unless otherwise specified, is for the duration of one quarter. Forfeiture of Privilege: Forfeiture of privilege to attend the College in so far as it is affected by scholarship is enforced whenever a student on probation fails to pass ten hours of work. Forfeiture of privilege to attend the College may also result from unsatisfactory conduct. If for any reason it is felt that injustice has been done, the student may appeal to the Standards Committee for a hearing. The Committee may then recommend that the student be reinstated if the members decide that the case warrants such action. Forfeiture of privilege to attend a class is enforced whenever a student is dropped from class. A student may be dropped from class because of unsatisfactory progress, lack of attendance, or unsatisfactory conduct. The student may be reinstated by securing written approval of both the instructor and his counselor. College Attitude: A student enters college through choice rather than by law requirement. He is arriving at the age of maturity where good judgment and ability to make wise choices are most desirable. For these reasons he is given considerably more freedom than he has had in the past. Numerous rules and regulations governing this new degree of freedom are purposely omitted. It is presumed that college students are capable of acting as men and women. The vast majority of the students demonstrate their abilities to profit by these liberties. It is only the few who ostracize themselves because of their immature judgments. ELIGIBILITY Eligibility rules apply to students who participate in competitive activities and to members of social and service clubs. To be eligible to represent the College in any competitive activity, a student must (1) be a graduate of a standard high school, have fifteen units in high school studies, or meet entrance requirements by passing G. E. D. tests; (2) be registered for at least ten quarter hours of college work; and (3) have completed satisfactorily ten hours of work in the previous quarter of attendance. If a student is not passing in ten quarter hours of college work, he is placed on probation. At the end of the probation period, if the student's work is still not satisfactory, he is declared ineligible for that quarter. Eligibility should be affirmed twice during the quarter. Students who participate in intramural activities are governed by the foregoing regulations. Students who participate in inter-school athletics are governed by the regulations of the Intermountain Junior College Athletic Conference. Directors of opera, drama, debate, and yearbook must file a list of participants before any position, part, or office is officially given to a student. In case of an opera or a play, eligibility is in effect for the duration of the production. In all other cases, eligibility must be affirmed at the end of the fourth and eighth weeks. Eligibility for social and service clubs is maintained according to the regulations of the Inter-club Council. A student must (1) be registered for ten quarter hours of college work; and (2) have a grade point of at least 1.0 in all work during the previous quarter of attendance. Social and service club members who in the previous quarter have not maintained a 1.0 grade point average are declared ineligible to participate in any club activities during the new quarter, or until the grade point average is raised to at least 1.0. |
