| | BU Provost - Report of the Academic Practices Committee |
 | | Latin Honors are based upon attaining a GPA specified by the individual school or college over the course of an undergraduate degree program. |  | | The top 30% of the graduating class will be so designated by Latin honors, but the committee concluded that characterizing the other 70% of the class did not serve those students well and would not ultimately be helpful to the reader of the transcript. |  | | The committee discussed both the absolute and relative meaning of "honors." Given the comparative figures with other institutions and the absolute meaning of honors taken to be "superior," the committee ultimately agreed that conferring honors upon 39% of graduating students at Boston University is too high a rate. |

Payzant and persuade him to reverse the decision. |  | | "The cancellation of honors classes in English for sophomores and in modern languages for both sophomores and juniors is a misguided change in school policy and a break from the mission and tradition of Boston Latin School," Goodwin wrote. |  | | But Boston Latin Headmaster Cornelia Kelly said the school is simply trying to keep all 10th-graders in the same class to help them focus on passing the Massachusetts Comprehensive Assessment System exam - a graduation requirement starting with the class of 2003. |
