Profs, students discuss law school grading standards

the law courtroom yesterday to discuss grading stan
dards
The grading practices controversy. II
problem this year. stems from grading v ariances among

recurring

professors who teach the same course but in different
sections Also a source of controversy Is the apparent
move toward Inore strenuous grading of first year law
students

FIVE l’ltttFESSURS ,\.\l) II student representative
formed an ad hoc committee to review grading stan
dards In the law school, l’rol' Rutherford (‘ampbelL
committee chairman. began the discussion with
studean by outlining the problems

”lt‘s obviousthere are high and low graders In the law
school and. of course. many studean feel this is
somewhat unfair." (‘ampbell said

(‘ommittee members and students discussed the
standards for approximately two hours before it was
decided. on (‘ampbell's suggestion. that students would
formulate their opiniors and submit them to the cont
mittee through student representative Marilyn Daniels
The committee will then present recommendations to a
full faculty meeting on April 28

P “(I ll-.Ili (’\.\l|’lt| ll outlined the committee‘s

Hnlv one committee member favored the proposal

to define grades an “A"papei‘ for instance. would
tH'IIttt‘ which is well sritten. concise. etI All committee
members approved the proposal

to define an average class grade such as a 3.4 2 t‘»

number of grades which could be awarded above this
level

l'lll‘i l’RitI'USAIASI. IF adopted at the taculty
meeting, would not be binding but only serve as a
guideline tor professors

Several students who spoke at the forum expressed a
desire to shift the grading system to pass. fail and
honors

Such a system Is "unquestionably ideal" but im»
possible because "we just don't have the resources."

 

 

 

«"ampbell said lie explained that limited classroom
space and the large of number ot students in each class
would make it more difficult for professors to evaluate a
student‘s peitormance than under the present system

I’ltItI-‘, PH l. Ititl-IRST. ,\ committee member.
favored keeping the present five letter grade system
because it “offers taculty more alternatives" In grading
students

.-\lthough he acknowledged that students “are road
because of comparative grading." ()berst did not favor
gradIng guidelines. "You can‘t program the faculty to
turn out certa in grades at certain t imes." he said.

t‘ommittI-e member l’rof Alvin Goldman.
cited a number of reasons why professors grade dif—
ferently. Differences in the type of examination. the
texts used, class aids and how the professor approaches
the SUDJOCI were among the examples given,

.\ Mm E 'I‘IM‘ARD IIARSHER grading of first-year
students began with a memorandum from a law
professor stating that 1973-74 grades “were too high.‘
law prof Kenneth Germain said.

Germain said he was part of “a conspiracy" to grade
students more strenuously He said. however. the effort
failed in that grades dropped below normal levels

The harsh grading was not an injustice but a “good
faith effort to normali7e grades to a reasonable level."
Germain said

The number of first-year law students on academic
probation Ithose receiving a GPA of 2.0 or below many
semesterI increased from til percent in fall 1973 to 22 per
cent In fall 1974

UK concedes on two points
concerning civic center use

(‘ontinued from page I

Singletary said if the new
proposal is not satisfactory to the
parties involved he wants to
begin the negotiations “on an
entirely different basis than I
think has existed up till now."

"IF THEY‘RE (EUING to say
clearly and unmistakingly to us
that there‘s going to be no special
concessions to the University of
Kentucky, then l want to ap-
proach that contract with an
equally clear statement that
there will be no special
obligations assumed by the
l'iiiv'ersit)',” Singletary said.

From the outset of
negotiations. the l'niversity was
given special consideration to
protect against competition from
professional basketball. he said.
“But in retum we think that from
the beginning we have also made
a special contribution 'l‘hat is . a
larger financial stake in it than
ambod) elseproposing to use it."
Singletary added

"I have know ii from the
beginning this is clearly a no win
proposition Whichever way
_\ou go _\ou lose somehod}
’l'here's no on) out of that except
to lose \l} question is how we
lose best.” Singletary said
