A	Work of consistently high caliber Participation in class discussion outstanding in quality Intellectual enthusiasm Considerable initiative and originality in approach Ability to apply the factual material learned, draw conclusions, make comparisons, and develop general concepts
B	Good grasp of subject matter Thoughtful applications of facts learned Ability to express ideas with facility and fluency Meaningful contribution to class discussions
C	Adequate understanding and use of subject matter Acceptable class participation and preparation
D	Work slightly above minimum requirements. (This level of work at year's end gives little promise of marked success in any further study of the subject.)
