Show LOCAL STUDENTS ARE HONORED FOR HIGH SCHOLARSHIP SALT LAKE CITY Two Washington county students were included among the 272 University Univer-sity of Utah students who received re-ceived grades giving them high honor standing for the winter quarter classes at the university, according to an announcement made by E. J. Norton, recorder. In recognition of their superior work, these students have been awarded honor cards. The cards are given only to students who have received a 2.5 average or higher, which average is equivalent equiva-lent to a grade of "A" in half of their classes, and at least a grade Bf "B" in the other half of their courses. The cards are awarded only to undergraduates and to advanced students in the Schools of Law and Medicine who have not received their bachelor's degree. This is the largest number ever to receive honor cards, according to Mr. Norton, and is an increase of nearly 20 per cent over the number of cards issued at the end of the fall quarter. The students receiving the honor cards comprise about. 8 per cent of the student body. Washington county students thus honored were Orville Isom, Hurricane, and Clair W. Judd, La Verkin. |
