Elon College, Dec. 30—Miss Hazel E. Knott of Winston-Salem made the highest grade average of any student at Elon College for the fall term. Her average was 95 percent on all her studies, the highest possible average since 95 is the highest grade given on any subject.
Miss Knott is a member of the Freshman class, having graduated from the Richard J. Reynolds High school in the spring of 1923. Her record from the high school also shows that she was an excellent student during her high school course, making high grades throughout. Miss Knott is the only member of the class here who made the maximum grade on all subjects taken.
The fall term grades have all been compiled and sent out to the students. The 60 percent rule, which requires that as student must pass 60 percent of his work in one term before he can register for the next, was found necessary of application only in a very few limited number of cases this year, about five in all. This shows that the students have done a more stable grade of work this fall than heretofore.
College opens for the second semester on Tuesday, January 6th. More than enough new students are expected to enter on this date to fill the vacanies made by those who have dropped out during the fall.
