McMTNNVILLE, ORE. -(I.P.)-Falling grades need no longer appear on a student's transcript at Linfield College. The faculty has passed a measure to make a student's transcript a record of satisfactory completion of requirements. The student now has the option of dropping a course at any time, even within CO days after a final examination, and having the record of his enrollment removed from his transcript at his request. The innovation is one which has also been adopted recently at Brown University. The philosophy behind this move is that a record of failure often precludes another chance in education or lessons acceptability in graduate school or employment. Linfield will require a 2.0 average for graduation and that a student be suspended for failure to complete fewer than five courses by the end of the first year, 10 courses by the end of the second year, 15 courses by the end of the third year, and 20 coursi the end of the fourth year. This would allow a student to complete his academic work in nine semesters, rather than eight, with no academic penalty. The number of courses required above applies after the fall of 1970 when Linfield goes on the three courses per semester system.
