Bruhn, president. High Honor indicates that students stud-ents made a total of 14 credits of straight A in their college work. Achievement of a position on the Honor roll indicates a grade point average of 2.5 with a total of 40 or more honor points. When a grade of A is given, 3 honor points for each credit hour is awarded. A grade of B is figured on the basis of 2 honor points. 2.5 average, therefore, is midway between be-tween an A and a B. A student to make 40 honor points would need carry the equivalent equi-valent of about 16 hours of work, with such an average to merit inclusion on the Honor roll.
