1983-1984 Academic Catalog

The student is expected to a 2.00 cumulative grade point average. Any student not achieving the 2.00 average will be placed on academic warning as a reminder to make a serious effort to reach the required average. The first-quarter freshman who does not meet the 2.00 average wil1 not receive official warning, in order to provide some time for the student to make an adjustment to college life. A student who has received academic warning for two consecutive quarters shall be suspended for at least one quar– ter unless the student's average indicates progress toward the re– quired average. Consideration for continued enrollment may be made by the academic dean for documented personal illness. Any student not reaching the cumulative grade point average of 2.00 by the end of the third quarter of the sophomore year will be sus– pended. A student suspended for academic reasons may make applica– tion for readmission during a quarter in the regular academic year following the suspension. Faculty members and other counselors are available to discuss student progress. The student in academic difficulty should plan to utilize these personnel to help find solutions to academic prob– lems. Academic warning implies no particular restrictions on college activities, but should be considered as a serious warning that the student faces academic suspension unless grades improve.
