Heaton, registrar, will allow seniors to register Thurs day afternoon, January 22. Under classmen will register Friday and Saturday, January 23 and 24. Class es will begin again Monday, Jan uary 26, and will run continuously without spring recess until May 16. This year, since the high schools are not geared to a war footing, the next semester will not start until approximately June 1, 1942, by which time the freshman class will be ready to enter the college. Wide publicity is to be given the change to the three semester change, and all students who would have entered the college in Sept ember normally will be called up on to enroll June 1. However, reg ular courses will be offered for those who do enter in September. The college will then go on the three semester per year cycle for the duration of the war, accord ing to the proposal. This will allow a student to complete his college course in less than three years of continuous work, having him grad uate at an average age of 20. For the second semester of this year, the only change in the curric ula planned is to double the num ber of hours spent each week on military drill. This is being done at the recommendation of Col. M. D. Welty, commandant. The four hours per week of drill will be taken from 1 to 5 p.m. on Tues day, Wednesday, and Thursday. Students who cannot arrange a program to allow a full afternoon without some scheduled class will be allowed to mix sections in regis tration so as to provide for it. No mention has been made of having classes scheduled on Sat- day afternoons. It is expected that Dr. T. 0. Wal ton, president of the college, will request corps area headquarters to allow juniors who are now en rolled in advanced military science courses and who will graduate in February, 1943, if the plan ’is adopaed, be allowed to complete their academic work, going to camp upon graduation and receiving their commission at the completion of the camp.
