An analysis of "F" and "I" grades given at Harcum Junior College during the last five academic years reveals a long-term trend of substantial stability. The average percentage of "F" grades given was 3.7 percent (range= 2.8-5 percent). The average percentage of "I" grades given was 2.1 percent (range= 1-3 percent). Past studies suggest that both student and faculty characteristics contribute to this five-year pattern of comparative similarities. For the fall semester of 1974-75, the total numbers of "F" and "I" grades assigned in each academic department were as follows: Behavioral Science--14 "F's" and 11 "I's"; Business--25 "F's" and 12 "I's"; Humanities--5 "F's" and 32 "I's"; Science--72 "F's" and 7 "I's". Three years ago the author predicted that stabilized grading practices at Harcum would lead to a rising level of "lower" grades. His conclusion now is that such a "rising level" in "F" grades has occurred. (Author/DC)
