After only 244 out of 700 men passed all of their February academic course work, the College enacted stricter requirements to help reduce the number of failures. Freshmen who failed would be required to attend 10 nights of supervised study hall.

Copies of the failing list were sent to faculty to encourage staff to give special attention to the failing students.
