University of Texas Bulletin No. 2824: June 22, 1928 Honor List of the College of Arts and Sciences, the School of Business Administration, the School of Education, the College of Engineering, and the College of Pharmacy Second Semester, 1927-1928 PUBLISHED BY THE UNIVERSITY FOUR TIMES A MONTH. AND ENTERED AS SECOND-CLASS MATTER A.T THE POSTOFFICE AT AUSTIN, TEXAS, UNDER THE ACT OF AUGUST 24, 1912 The benefits of education and of useful knowledge, generally diffused through a community, are essential to the preservation of a free govern· ment.

Lamar COLLEGE OF ARTS AND SCIENCES EXPLANATION The purpose of this honor list is to commend officially those stu­dents, about one-tenth of the student body, whose grades during the second semester rank them scholastically above the remaining nine­tenths. This highest tenth is subdivided into five groups, the students in each group being listed alphabetically. In constructing this list, account is taken both of the quantity and of the quality of work accomplished by the student as shown by the reports of the instructors. No account is taken of the grade in the required physical training or of courses registered for but not passed. Heavy emphasis is given to quality by counting an A on one semester hour as 4, a B as 3, a C as 2, and a D as 1, in computing the score of the student. For example, a B made in Chemistry 412f, which is a four semester hour course, counts 12-as much as an A made on a three semester hour course. Because Freshman grades run lower than those of Upperclassmen, a Freshman to win any certain rank among his fellow classmen, does not have to make so high a score as does an Upperclassman. The following table shows the scores, for Freshmen and for Upper­classmen separately, that win ranking in each of the five groups.

This list, long discontinued, was again published during the period of 1913-1919. In 1919 this annual or Long Session honor list was replaced by the present semester honor lists, the work done by a student in all of his courses being commended rather than the work done in each individual course.
