SCHOOL OF COMMERCE

Programs which do not comply with the regulations hereinafter de-
scribed will be allowed only in the cases of students who are not candidates
for a degree, who have had here or elsewhere a course equivalent to two
years in the College of Letters and Science of this University, and who have
had the prerequisites of the particular subjects they wish to pursue. Until
such students have demonstrated their ability to maintain a grade of at
least C in the courses to which they are admitted, their status will be that
of students on probation.

The attention of students is called to the desirability of concentrating
in the junior year on the required courses as listed above.

LOWER-GROUP STUDENTS (those whose grade-points do not exceed their
credits by at least fifty per cent) are required to diversify the work of
the major and may not offer more than two courses from any one of the
fields described below for upper-group students. Lower-group students,
however, who succeed in earning 50% more grade-points than credits in the
work of their major, i.e. the courses required and elected in economics, may
ask permission through their advisers to be admitted to thesis work.

INDEPENDENT WoRK. Upper-group students who have done distinctly
superior work may, beginning with their junior year, undertake special
work outside of regular class instruction. Assignments will be made by
professors in charge of the various fields and conferences will be held on
such assigned work. An examination will be held toward the end of the
junior year on such independent work as shall have been assigned for
that year. Toward the end of the senior year there will be a final exam-
ination which will include general economics, the field of special concen-
tration, and the independent work done under assignments in Economics
180.
