Page 6 THE BATTALION THURSDAY AFTERNOON, OCTOBER 3, 1946 OFFICIAL NOTICES The following revision covering AB SENCES has been approved by the Faculty and is in effect: 17. (1) Prompt and regular attendance upon classes is required of all students. A student is expected to give class at tendance first consideration and to arrange necessary absences to cause the minimum conflict with college duties. (2) Absence from class, regardless of the cause, results in a part of the work in that class being missed. Responsibility for making up work missed rests on the stu dent. The instructor of a class is the sole authority as to a student’s proficiency and final grade in that course. He is also the sole judge as to whether the circumstances of the absence and the work of the stu dent warrant his cooperation in providing rtunity to make up quizzes and labo- of eacl partment is responsible for maintaining a insistent policy within the department. (3) Each instructor in charge of a class or section shall keep an accurate consistent policy within the department. t policy ch instr pportumty to make up qui atory work missed.

Whenever a student is absent from class for one week for reasons unknown or deemed unsatis factory to the instructor, and in such other cases as the instructor deems ad visable, he shall report such absences through the head of his department to the dean of the student’s school. (4) For persistent absence from a class or classes a student may be required to drop the course or courses upon recom mendation of the instructor. Students ceas ing to attend a class prior to filing with the Registrar the approval of their dean to drop the course, will be considered ab sent from class and subject to penalty for persistent absence.

This list shall be for the information and guidance of the instructor in providing opportunity for a student to make up work missed. It shall be the responsibility of the student asking such opportunity, to call the attention of the instructor to the presence of his name on such list promptly upon his return to class. (6) Students allowed to register on pro bation, as provided in Paragraphs 29 and 30 of the Regulations, are expected to at tend all classes except where the absence is absolutely unavoidable.

The Security Office offers other services to the student who might have some valuable article or arti cle which he holds in high esteem, in eluding the registration qf iden tifiable articles, providing a possi ble identification for property lost or stolen. Such articles may in clude typewriters, bicycles, watch es, or slide rules, which have serial numbers or other means of identi fication. When an article is lost, it .should be reported, after which checks will be made at second hand stores and every effort will be made to recover the article. Second-hand stores check -vOith the Campus Security Office before any equipment is purchased in or der to make certain that the arti cle is not lost or stolen. Another service rendered by this office ,is the renewal of applica tions for drivers licenses. On the other hanjd it is this office which is responsible for parking tickets in restricted zones. Band Tops Outfits In Football Signs Top honors in the first week’s football sign contest were won by the combined band. Displayed on Dormitory 11, the sign was an original idea presented by Fish Neuberger, of Palestine, and Bill O’Donelly, sophomore from Hous ton, did the art work. The winning sign portrays the Aggie team as a steam roller smashing NTSC and charging on toward each succeeding team. Prize money, given by, J. E. Loupot, was presented to drum majors J. B. Cooper and Phil Kosub and Cadet Captains Sam Dixon and Larry Mangold by Cadet Colonel Ed Brandt. Winner in the second week’s sign contest was not announced by the judging committee. DENTIST Office in Parker Bldg. Over Canady’s Pharmacy Phone 2-1457 - Bryan DR. N. B. McNUTT —MESS HALL— (Continued from Page 1) supply, stated Mir. Peniston. At the present time the mess hall is forced to obtain its meat supply by purchasing animals on the hoof. The slaughtering must be done with college facilities, which raises the cost of the meat above packers’ prices. This is because the packers can make profit on the by-products of the animal while the college which has no outlet for these products is forced to absorb the waste. Also there are many portions of the meat which the din ing hall does not use, but which the packers can dispose of to var ious sources. According to United States Government standards, beef is composed of the following per centage: 50% stew and hamburger meat; 20% roast; and 20-% steak. This means that most of the meat served must be either stew or ground meat. These are some of the reasons that milk is rationed, that stew and hamburger are so prevalent, and the chow lines are so long and slpw. Perhaps some time in the near future an improvement of con ditions will allow the mess halls to give better food service.
