Honors concentrators who fall below B- level in their work are reclassified as Pass majors, and candidates for a regular degree cannot remain in their major field if their average falls below C-. Students disqualified from concentration must raise their grades to the required level to gain re-admittance. Bradley calls both minimums--especially the C- requirement--"too low," and he is determined to up them soon...
