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.
