Grade Option Discussed...

term, and who would be able to
use the option.
Jan Lunan. candidate for sena
tor-at-large. said the plan should
be used to allow students to
branch out into other fields.
John Dick, another candidate
for senator-at-large, brought up
the problem of what would hap
pen to freshmen under this plan.
For example, a student could
choose to take English composi
tion on a pass-no-pass basis.
“'Would he work as hard here
as in his graded classes.” Dick
asked, “or would he just slough
off?”
Nancy Holmes, women's co-op
representative, said that if a stu
dent came from a high school
that didn’t give him a good writ
ing background, using this option
the student would enable him to
survive.
The professor, she continued,
could just give him a no-pass
(which is not recorded on the
transcript) and the student would
take the course over again.

stitute of Marine Biology' at
Charles ton, will be honored at a
meeting of the Oregon Marine
Biological Society.
He will be honored during the
meeting at 2 p.m. Saturday at

Dave McCloskey, committee
chairman, said this approach
would help to change the atmos
phere regarding grading at the
University,
He said he felt that there is an
over emphasis on grades and this
type of an approach might re
move some of that emphasis. It
would then be put back on learn
ing, which McCloskey said is
where it belongs.
He also pointed out that this
system might give students the
option of having more responsi
bility for their own education.
