Dr. Alfred E. Stearns Phillips Academy Andover, Hass. Dear Sir: For the past term the grades are as follows for Mr. Sinley Kong Yuen Chang: English 60 Greek General Average 71 History 80. Drawing Mathematics 75 Biology General Average of the class:73 Chemistry Economics Physics 70 Psychology French 70 German Spanish Latin Checked, item alone applicable. ( ) 4.

Recommended to Sophomore class but under “disqualification/’ (see Rule 3, over page), together with any other restriction of privileges prescribed by Sophomore rules. ( ) 4. Will not be recommended for admission to Sophomore class (i.e., to Group above)! until entrance conditions are removed. Remarks.:   EXTRACT FROM RULES OF THE FRESHMAN YEAR 3. “Disqualification” prohibits a student from representing his class or any other department of the University in any athletic, musical, or dramatic organization, as officer, member, or substitute, and from engaging in any other organized extra-curriculum activity. 6. “Term” is one of the two periods into which the year is divided; first term, September-February; second term, February-June. 7. “Grades,” on the scale of 100, are recorded only in multiples of five. The passing grade is.60. (Grades returned in June are for the work of the second term only; a failure in the work of the first term is waived only on recommendation of the Head of Instruction in the subject concerned. Notice of, any such recommendation is given over page under “Remarks.” A general average of 90 or above for the term classifies a student as a Scholar of the First Rank. A general average of 80-89 for the term classifies a student as a Scholar of the Second Rank. Lists of such Scholars are published in the University Bulletin and in the next catalogue of the Freshman Year. A grade of 90 or above in a given subject classifies a student as a Ranking Scholar in that subject.) 12. To be admitted to full and regular standing in the Sophomore Class a Freshman must pass all of his regular courses and not be under penalty. Any student otherwise entitled to Sophomore rating who (a) has passed less than four of his regular Freshman courses, or (b) who has obtained less than three (3} Quality Credits (one and one-half of which must be secured in the second term), or (c) who goes on general warning in June, will be under penalty of disqualification on entering Sophomore year, together with any other restriction of privileges prescribed by Sophomore rules. (One and one-half Quality Credits are given for a grade of 75 or above for one term’s work in any regular course. Any Freshman failing to secure at least one and one-half (1-1/2) Quality Credits for his second term’s work, regardless of the number secured for the first term, will be -under disqualification and will be deprived of two-thirds (2/3) of his cut-allowance for the first term of Sophomore year. Any Freshman failing to secure at least three (3) Quality Credits for the year will also be subject to the same penalty. The foregoing Rules are in conformity with a uniform Quality Credit System adopted for the Sheffield Scientific School, Yale College, and Freshman Year, to go into effect with the present Freshman class. Under the system each member of the class of 1925 must secure ten (10) such Quality Credits by the end of Junior Year, and eighteen (18) in order to graduate with his. class. Since all Quality Credits secured at any time count towards the minimum of eighteen (18) required for graduation, it is obvious that students should strive to secure as many as possible from the very beginning. 16. Warnings are issued in the middle of each term and after each semi-annual examination. A student below 70 in any regular course is warned in that course. A student whose grades are below 60 in two regular courses, or below 65 in three, or below 70 in four, is oh general warning, which involves" disqualification until the next warning period. 14. No Freshman will be recommended for admission to the Sophomore classes until he has removed all entrance conditions. 17. A student who has had a previous general warning may be dropped at the end of the term if his grades are then below 60 in two of his regular courses. 18. Any student who has received three successive general warnings may be dropped. 19. Any student whose scholarship is deemed detrimental to the scholarship of the Freshman class may be dropped from any course or from the class at any time, whether or not his case is covered by the specific rules. 20. A Freshman who is dropped from the class for scholarship deficiencies may be refused readmission to the Freshman Year. In any case, no student will be readmitted until he has removed all entrance conditions. Dr. Alfred E. Stearns Joseph R. Ellis Sinley K.Y.

Stearns, Phillips Academy, Andover, Mass., U.S.A. My dear Mr. Stearns: The return of my son Sinley from America after a departure of three years has brought us a great happiness. To my greatest pleasure I find that he is in very good health and has improved in his intellect. Indeed, American education has done him good. I wish to thank you heartily for your guardianship and instructions which, I firmly believe, can not be excelled. He is coming back to America about two weeks from now and will be in New Haven at the end of next month. During this trip I am trying to make him study the conditions and developments of this country to help him to decide his future work. I must regret for not having mentioned to you the way I send my son allowances so long you have been his guardian. I have been sending remittances three or four times a year through the British- American Tobacco Company in Shanghai to the same office in New York and asking them to send to my son $200 at the end of every month. I find that their service has been satisfactory. My idea is to let my son have some knowledge of economics by learning to keep his own account, and in the past years he has proved himself capable to do so. We are satisfied with what he has done in America. It is our desire and hope that he will finish his college work in a still better way than he has done, and we have no doubt that you will constantly guide him and give him instructions to enable him to better understand the meaning of life. I am now heading the Industrial Development Bank of China having head office at Peking. The political prospect is brighter, and we all hope that the time may not be distant when China will be united under a strong government like the one you are enjoying in your country. Although I have never been in America, I have learned many a wonderful thing about her from friends and recently from my son. I hope to make a trip some day. I shall be very glad to hear from you. With best regards, I remain, Sincerely yours, Dr. Alfred E.

N. Chang Industrial Development Bank of China Peking, China My dear Mr. Chang: Let me thank you for your very generous and friendly letter of August 28th which has just reached my desk. It has been a real pleasure to know your boy and to do whatever I could, which has been little enough, to make his stay in America a happy and a profitable one as well. He has been most responsive and always ready to cooperate to the fullest extent. I have, missed him greatly since he left us to take up his course in college. I fully approve of your method of handling the boy’s funds. The only question in my mind was prompted by the fact that in a number of instances bills have been sent to me for payment; though no funds for such purposes had ever been placed in my hands. I think I once raised the question with Sinley himself as to whether you had any wishes in the matter; but I had not the slightest intention of suggesting a chance in the arrangement. I do hope that you will find it possible to visit America some day, as suggested. My relations with the Chinese students who have come to us and with their families at home extend now over a period of more than twenty years and have been most delightful. At the present time, as you perhaps know, I have several of them staying in my own home. My own altogether too brief visit to China in the winter of 1912-1913 is still, and always will be, one of the pleasantest memories of my life.

My dear Sinlay: Your fine letter reached me this morning. I do not think I ever received a nicer one or one that meant more to me. As you probably know, I received a brief letter from Mr. Kung several weeks ago, in which was enclosed a draft which more than covered all outstanding bills. On receipt of this, I at once wrote Mr. Kung a long letter explaining my anxiety, not about the money, for that didn’t worry me a bit, but about the whole situation in view of his silence. Antung apparently has not been playing fair either with his father or with me; and I am distressed beyond words, for, with Anjohn’s death and in view of a long and serious talk I had with Antung at the time, I had dared hope that the boy had come to his senses and was about to turn the corner and play the man. The boys tell me that Antung is located in Boston, where he is loading a pretty gay and fast life, and that he has only a nominal college connection, I believe, with Boston University. Evidently this is done just to keep up appearances and with no serious intent of securing an education. I thank you again and a thousand times for your more than friendly interest in my problem. I am confident, too, that your visit to Mr. Kung and your personal report must have meant much to him, so I know it means everything to me. As I expect to be in New Haven Sunday, I do hope you will give me an opportunity to see you. With renewed thanks and every good wish for the new year just opening, believe me Sincerely and gratefully yours. secretary to Dr. Stearns Sinley K.Y.

For some years past a plan of quality credits has been in operation. By the plan that is now in effect, a quality credit grade will be 76, or C+. At least 30% of an undergraduate’s work shall be of quality credit grade. For each term-hour of work passed with a grade of 75 one-half a quality credit will be given, thus permitting a maximum of seven and one-half quality credits for either term or fifteen for the year. A student who fails to obtain quality credit in a term is under disqualification in the following term, and his allowance of "cuts" is reduced to five. "Disqualification" prohibits a student from representing his class or the- college in any athletic, musical, or dramatic organization, as officer, member, or substitute, and from engaging in any other extra-curriculum activity. A student who has not obtained four and one-half quality credits at the end of Sophomore year, or ten at the end of Junior year, will be required to withdraw from the College. No student who fails to secure a minimum of eighteen quality credits by the end of his Senior year may qualify for his degree until the fall of that year. https://chinesestudents.andover.edu/files/original/93ae44ff936e470f414e2a7ab4784980.jpg d9d1a6f8af44ca97d3215e558c565442 Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.
