Success Story
The number of University freshmen
qualifying for the Dean's List after one
semester has virtually doubled since the
1962-63 school year and the inauguration
of the Freshman Year of Studies,
according to Dr. William M. Burke,
dean of the program.
Whereas 105 freshmen achieved
Dean's List status in 1962-63, there
were 208 first year students on the list
after the 1964-65 first semester. Twenty
of these have a straight "A" (4.0)
average, an increase of 12 over last
year. The number of academic probations
for freshmen has dropped 25
per cent.
There were an additional 200 freshmen
with a "B" (3.0) or better average
who did not meet the Dean's List
requu-ement of 3.25. In all 408 (28
per cent) of the .IjSSO freshmen last
year had a "B" average or better.
According to Dean Burke the freshmen's
academic success can be attributed
to three factors: an active
counseling program to identify to the
student areas of strength and weakness;
the new Memorial Library; and the use
of more experienced teachers for freshman
classes.
