...touches upon the principle that the Dean's List privilege is, or should be, relative to current standing. The freedom granted by academic excellence is not so great that it should be accorded only twice a year, and it may be so valuable, properly used, that more students should enjoy it, for however slight a time, whenever they qualify in their courses.
