CLASPE RECEIVES SECTIONAL PRIZE li Judging from the number of "A" and "B" marks given by professors in 1925-1926 compared with those given in 1912-1913, the relative chance of a student's obtaining a high mark is rapidly diminishing, according to fig- ures shown yesterday by University authorities. The figures were com- piled for the literary college only. Of courses given in 1912 and 1926, 23 were selected at random for a basis of comparison. Of these 23 represen- tative courses, there has been an aver- age decrease in 16 courses, in the number of "A" marks given, of four and one-half per cent. In but five courses has there been any increase in the number of "A" marks, two courses awarding about the same marks last year as in 1912. In 14 courses the number of "B" marks given was six per cent less last year than in 1912. And in practically every course of the representative 23 the number of "C" marks given out was higher last year than in 1912. The five courses of the 23 in which any increase in the number of "A" marks given out was noted were those in French, Spanish, fine arts, biology,, and German. The grades of the rhetoric and mathematics depart- ments were practically the same last! year as in 1912.I As a whole, courses showed generali decreases in the number of "A" and "B" grades given, and slight increases in the number of "C" marks.
