EDITORIAL Retain second-semester pass/no-credit grading The faculty should elect to retain the current pass/no-credit grading system at its meeting next Wednesday. Eliminating the sec- ond semester of pass/no-credit would do little to increase "flexi- bility," diminish "overloading," or increase preparedness in upper- M- level subjects. Rather, the elimination would further increase the e stresses of MIT, and have a disproportionate impact on those who,

for various reasons, have difficulty adjusting to life at the Go Institute. The proposal advanced by the Committee on the Undergraduate Program provides for the elimination of second-term pass/no- credit grading and the addition of one credit/no-credit option for -students in each remaining term, with some restrictions. The pro- posal strikes a chord with the faculty not because of "flexibility" A= or freshman "overloading," but because of a desire by some to is toughen-up standards in the freshman year. ff Faculty opponents of pass/no-credit claim their upperclassmen come to them poorly prepared in the science core subjects. At last w: month's faculty meeting, one professor of electrical engineering and computer science went so far as to claim that one third of his students were unprepared in fundamental subjects. But the blame' a for such perceptions should not be placed upon pass/no-credit, since passing grades of any kind are supposed to denote proficien- cy in a subject. Several departments, including EECS, require C work in prerequisites, and an Undergraduate Academic Support w Office profile of the class entering in 1984 reveals that on average 70 percent of freshman grades in the core subjects were As or B's. 0 In light of these figures, faculty must realize that their expecta- a tions may be too high - some of the "unprepared" students are w receiving B's, or even A's, in their prerequisites. If freshman grad- 0 ing is too easy, there are remedies far less drastic than eliminating pass/no-credit. Moreover, the elimination of second-semester pass/no-credit would not serve to increase curriculum flexibility for freshmen or Graduate Council should assess pledge interest (Editor's note: a copy of the investigate thoroughly- and must come from both groups. reduce perceived "overloading" in the second-term, as the Com- following letter, addressed to weigh the social and environ- For this reason, we ask you to mittee on the First-Year Program claimed in its report to the CUP.
