FINAL EXAM CHANGE Final examinations for the current semester were originally to begin Satur day afternoon, June 1. In view of the fact that graduation exercises will be held Friday, May 31; that the Final Ball will be held following graduation exercises; that the Final Review will be held on Sat urday morning, June 1; and that many stu dents will have their family and friends here at that time, it is thought that the best interests of all concerned will be served better if final examinations for un dergraduates do not begin until Monday morning, June 3. In order to effect this change in the final examination schedule, all examina tions scheduled for period K, 1 p. m. June 1, will be changed to 1 p. m. Friday, June 7. The regularly scheduled exam inations for the conflict period will be held' Saturday morning and Saturday afternoon, June 8. No other changes in the examination schedule are necessary, and the rest of the schedule as announced on page 4 of the official schedule of classes will be followed. F. C. BOLTON, Dean.
