The Report of the Association of University Teachers on Entrance tests and Initial Degrees

Extract

Mr. J. T. Combridge, in opening the discussion, said. My first duty is to give you a brief summary of the Report on Entrance Tests and Initial Degrees, adopted in June 1930 by the Council of the Association of University Teachers. My second duty is to offer such comments on it as may provoke a heated discussion among those who might otherwise be disposed to agree in approving or condemning it. For the benefit of those who have a copy of the Report, I would say that the mysterious reference at the foot of p. 4, “See pp. 4-10”, in reference to the English test, is due to the fact that the Report is an offprint from a certain number of the Universities Review, and the test referred to appears on pp. 4-10 of that number
