their program for the exemption of all
graduate stuc from chaperone rules,
at the monthly meeting of the Self Gov-
ernment Association. held on February
a7. oe,
E. Dulles, '17, who seconded R. Wood-
ruff's motion that graduate students be
exempt from all chaperone rules, pointed
out that only fourteen graduates are
under chaperone rules and that these
fourteen are often given permission to
go unchaperoned. “Moreover,” she con-
tinued, “graduates have finished their pre-
liminary work and are considered eligible
for responsible positions. We must as-
sume for them a certain degree of ma-
turity.”
Opposed to the motion, M. Buchanan,
President of the Graduate Club, said
that in her opinion it was better not to
remove restrictions, but bringing the pre-
sent rules up to date, to keep them so
that they would serve as protection to
students coming from colleges in small
towns. She would collect and amend
existing regulations so that graduates
would be exempt in the following cases:
those over twenty five, those who have
had one year of teaching or of graduate
work, any who were detailed by pro-
fessors, groups of two or three when one
was exempt, and those to whom special
permission was given by the Executive
Board.
President Taft, in accordance with
President Thomas’ custom, called a
special meeting of the Graduate Club to
discuss Self Government. She stressed

THIRTEEN BRYN MAWR STUDENTS

licka, University lecturer at Oxford,
who was at Bryn Mawr two weeks ago,
and Miss Donnelly, who studied at Ox-
ford, thirteen Bryn Mawr students hope
to be admitted to Oxford or Cambridge
for a year of graduate work in 1921-22.
From 1920,.D. Clark, M. Dent, L. Kel-
logg, E. Leutkemeyer, L. Sloan and K.
Townsend, and from 1921, F. Billstein,
E. Cope, K. Cowen, H. Hill, K. John-
ston, S. Marbury, J. Flexner and K.
Ward are considering the plan.
Miss Czaplicka has advised the Bryn
Mawr students to split up between the
three Oxford Colleges, St. Hilda’s, Lady
Margaret’s and Somerville.

New requirements for the degree of
Master of Arts were approved by the
Academic Council on February 10.
“This degree is open to college gradu-
ates who shall have satisfied the Gradu-
ate Committee that their course of study
has been equivalent to that for which
the degree of Bachelor of Arts is given
at Bryn Mawr College, or that it has
been adequately supplemented by subse-
quent study.
The candidate must attend at
Mawr College three seminaries, or their
equivalent, in graduate courses, unless by
permission of the Graduate Committee
she is allowed to substitute post-major
(third fourth year undergraduate)
courses for one of the seminaries. Pre-
liminary training equivalent to the Bryn
Mawr College undergraduate major
courses in the subject of the seminary,
or in related subjects of equal value in
preparation, is required for admission
to a seminary. Each seminary requires
one-third of the student's time for one
year. The minimum time in which the
work can be completed is therefore one
year, but the work cannot be done in one
year unless the candidate is thoroughly
prepared in all the subjects she offers,
and gives her entire time to graduate
study.
The candidate is required to pass with
a creditable grade written examinations
on the seminaries or courses offered,
such examinations to be held in the first
week of the May examination period.
The examination books, together with
the examiner's estimate, shall be sent
to the Graduate Committee, which shall
report to the Academic Council.
The degree shall not be given to any-
one who cannot read French and German
or who is unacquainted with Latin. The
Graduate Committee will provide writ-
ten examinations in French and German
twice each year, namely, once during
the week before Thanksgiving and once
during the week before spring vacation.
Students who have already passed the
Bryn
or
general language examinations of the
College in these languages may be ex-
cused from this requirement.
The prospective candidate must reg-
ister with the Graduate Committee dur-
ing October of the academic year in
which she intends to take her degree,
and her statement shall contain the ap-
proval of her courses by her instruc-
tors.”
