For a brief moment this fall there was a rumor that students wtth a 3.5 grade point average or above would be sent a letter. from the school recognizing and congratulaung them on thetr achteve~ent. However this rumor is apparently just a rumor, as several admmtstra tion offi cials who were contacted passed the buck on knowledge, until finally Keith Cleveland said " I have no comment, good-bye" and hung up. . . There are three reasons why Columbia should set up a dean s hst and join a national honor roll society. . . The first is that students with good grades sho uld be gtven recogm tion. Even at community college level there is a dean's list. It is important to g ive excelle nt students recognition for their achieve ment· it makes them fee l like they are valued members of the student body: and that the administration of the college recognizes that. A dean's list g ives a ll students something_to shoot for, not JUSt the achievers. Students are proud to have thetr name on such a hst, and students who might not otherwise aspire to high grades may dectde that it would be worth the extra effort to see the tr name on that ltst. Secondly, it would enhance the image of the college. This college has an open admissions policy. Columbia takes students who have Letter to the editor difficulty reading or writing and then recognizes the fact that they are not making the grade by putting them on academtc probatton when To the Editor: To the Editor: To The Editor : their grade point is less than average.
