Committee Mulls Hike
In GPA Requirements
T hr* Student Activities Com
n.lttee which met Tuesday, has
come to no decision yet concern
ing the taming of the minimum
GPA for participation in activi
ties and athletics.
However, three views were
presented, which will be dis
cussed. said Joel Berreman, chair
man of the committee, again at
tlie next meeting of the conimit
I* e.
BI.KKKM \\ said that the sub
ject of raising the minimum GPA
has come up at the commit
tee meetings every year, but the
rules have been left the same.
"There is some feeling that the
minimum GPA should be the
same for athletics as well as
other activities," said Berreman.
AT PHKSFNT the minimum
GPA for participation in activi
ties is a 2.0. In athletics, a per
son must have a 1.7ft in. his soph
omore year, a 1.9 in his junior
year, and a 2.0 in his senior year.
Last year, Berreman stated, a
proposal was made by the com
mittee for raising the minimum
GPA requirements, but it was
opposed by the faculty and the
rules were not changed.
