Students will be subject to the discipline of the Faculty when the total unexcused absences in any month amount to five.

Any student whose absences from a class during any month amount to as much as 25 per cent. of the scheduled meetings of the class, is required to stand a special examination on that month's work, according to the schedule laid down below.

In the case of those whose absences in a given month amount to 25 per cent., or more, of the scheduled meetings of the class, and who fail to stand the examination provided for such absences, it is left to the discretion of the instructor to retain them in the class.

Students who are absent from a class during the months of December and May as much as 25 per cent. of the scheduled meetings of the class must stand an examination for these months before being entitled to any grade on term examination. This special examination is to be held in connection with the regular term examination, or at some time during the examination period.

EXAMINATIONS.

Each student, before being entitled to any grade upon an examinacion, is required to subscribe his name to the following pledge: "I hereby certify that during this examination I have neither given nor received aid.” Students who hand in papers at the regular examinations are considered to have relinquished any claim to special examinations for grades. Students who fail to attend regular examinations, or who fail to hand in papers, are regarded as handing in blank papers, unless they have been previously excused from the examinations.

Excuses from examinations are granted only in case of absolute necessity. Such an excuse, to be valid, must be obtained from the President on or before the day of the examination, and communicated officially on that day to the instructor holding the examination.
