Something to Aim For
Few Graduate
'With High Distinction'
By Del Hood
The sheep Whose skin is
stamped "with high distinc
tion or "with distinction" at
graduation time has a lot to
baa about, and so does the
graduate who gets it
Few walk away from the
rostrum on commencement
day with a degree bearing
these special gold seals, but
those who do have at least
one thing in common brains
which they've: used.
If you're in the market for
one of these special sheep
skins, you can do a little com
parative shopping at the vari
ous colleges "listed below.
None of them reqquires per
fection. .
Arts and Sciences Grad
uation with honors is not
based solely upon grades, al
though only those with good
over-all averages are consid
ered.. Most students vying for
recognition must write a pa
per based upon original re
search, pass a comprehensive
examination in their major
field of study, and be ap
proved by the Committee on
Graduation with Distinction.
A number not to exceed 5
of the graduating class is con
sidered for honors based on
scholarship alone.
Business Administration
Not more than six of the
senior class is eligible for
honors; those with 7.5 or bet
ter are considered for high
distinction award; all nomin
ations are subject to approv
al by faculty committee
which takes into account gen
eral excellence as well as
scholarship.
Pharmacy. No specific
grade requirements; for high
distinction, scholarship must
be "unusually high" and the
student must write a paper
on some topic in pharmaceut
ical science which must be
approved by a faculty com
mittee. About ten of the grad
uating class is considered for
honors.
Graduate College Students
are ineligible for these hon
ors. AgricuK-re A total of six
of the graduating class is
considered, of which two re
ceive the degree "with high
distinction." High distinction
requires grace average oi o
or better, distinction 7.5. Stu
dent's participation in college
activities carries some
weight.
Dentistry No require
ments specified. Top students
in the College of Dentistry
are elected to membership in
the dental honorary, Omicron
KaDDa Upsilon.
Engineering and Architec
ture -Selections of honor stu
dents is based on the faculty's
evaluation of a candidate and
his grades; high distinction
requires 8 or better, distinc
tion 7.4.
Law No specific require
ments; nominations, subject
by faculty com- j or, and the student's com-
to approval
mittee.
Teachers Advisers recom
mend students for honors;
list of prospective candidates
is circulated among faculty
for approval, and each stu
dent must get at least five
faculty signatures in order to
rate consideration by the se
lection committee; selection
is based upon scholarship (8
or better for high distinction,
7 or better for distinction),
professional promise as indi
cated by grades received in
student teaching, advice of
the student-teacher supervis-
munity service activities.
These aren't bargain-counter
prices, but the cost really
isn't too prohibitive.
Such high honors . are
"within the range of a lot of
people if they'd work a little
harder," says John Fristoe,
who graduated with high dis
tinction in June 1958.
And apparently graduation
with honors is a good guaran
tee against failure, according
to Chancellor Clifford Hardin.
"It has been our experience
that men and women who
graduate from the University
with high distinction continue
to excel in whatever walk
of life they choose to enter,"
Hardin said.

Highlighting the annual
Greek Week, from May 11-17,
will be the "Greek Games"
Friday from 2 to 5 p.m. at
the south end of the football
practice field.
Sponsored by the Junior in
terfraternity council,- the
games are promising to be
new and different when the
Greeks gather to test their
physical prowess.
This year the games will
feature a phone booth paka
a women's hurdles races, a
raw egg race, a back to back
race and the traditional char
iot race.
Four men, instead of the
previous two, will be required
to pull the chariot in this fi
nal race, which will begin at
4:30.
According to the rules set
up by the Junior IFC, the
wheels for the chariot are to
be 26 inches in diameter, with
the maximum distance from
the axle to the tip of the
tongue to be 10 feet. The
shape of the tongue is to be a
"T" and is not to exceed 7
feet in length.
The girl representing the
fraternity must be protected
from the wheels in some
manner and the chariot must
be sturdy enough for her
safety. The minimum length
between the wheels is to be
3 feet, while the maximum
length Is 3 feet 8 inches.
The box must be at least
3 feet at its1 longest point,
with its minimum height to
be 2 feet 6 inches. The final
requirement asks that there
be no sharp edges on the
chariot.
Starting the games off at
2 p.m., fraternity men will be
able to repeat their "cram
ming" performance at Spring
Day activities, only at this
event, phone booths will be
used.
Strictly on a time basis,
two fraternities at a time will
compete and try to cram as
many men as they can into
the booths.
Following this bone-crushing
event, sorority women can
kick their heels in the hurdles
race. Selected in an impartial
drawing by the fraternities,
the co-eds, dressed in skirts
and sweaters, will have to
hurdle bales of hay.
One runner from each fra
ternity house will compete in
the raw egg race at 3:30.
Covering a track of 220 yards'
the barefoot runners in or
der to win, must still have
the egg (intact) in their
mouths.
The eggs can be held in
the mouth. In the hands, or
taped to the body. The last
three losers in the race will
have to eat the eggs.
Entries in the race will be '
eliminated if they run off the
track, break another's eggs
or break their own eggs.
In the back race, each
house will submit two entries,
a heavy man and a light
man.
The runners must wear ten
nis shoes and run the 60
yards distance first one way
and then return. No pushing
or any other type of foul
play will be permitted.
The Greek competition tro
phy will be presented to the
i fraternity accumulating the
nignest number of points at
the conclusion of the chariot
races.
The phone booth pak will
be scored: 1st, 6; 2nd, 4; 3rd,
2. The chariot races will be
scored: 1st, 10; 2nd, 6: 3rd,
3. All other events will be
scored: 1st, 5; 2nd, 3; 3rd, 1.
Applications for the "Greek
Games" must be submitted
to Dick Stuckey at the Delta
Tau Delta house no later
than Wednesday. .
