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

pportumty to make up qui
atory work missed. The head of each de-
lible for main
ithin the depa
or in charge c
te reci
of attendance of its members. He shall re
port the total number of accumulated ab
sences of each student on his mid-semester
and semester grade reports. 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. Flagrant violation of
the absence rules may result in the dis
missal of the student from the college.
(5) The Dean of Men shall publish, reg
ularly, a list of students absent due to
illness and those absent on trips authorized
by the Executive Committee such as in
spection trips and official trips represent
ing the College. 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. A list of such
students will be issued from the Registrar’s
le. Instructors are
icted to enforce the “no cut” provision
office as soon as possible. Instructors are
expec
of the probation and to report unnecessary

FRIENDLY ADVICE
ON CAR BUYING
Triple savings are possible

from your friendly local
banker.
2. PAY CASH! — often you
may get a better deal.
2. SAVE CASH ON INSUR
ANCE— by getting State

It was stated that the store is

hoped that a system will be put

The Security Office offers other
services to the student who might

cle which he holds in high esteem,
in eluding the registration qf iden
tifiable articles, providing a possi
ble identification for property lost

fication. When an article is lost,

be made to recover the article.
Second-hand stores check -vOith the

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

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.
