Math Clinks: To Help Students I/eam . .
I Theoretically Math ClttHra are a f«>od
Wea. Whether they will worti at AAM
aunt be proven.
A Math Clinic ia a place (umially a
rlaMrooml where student* may go any
time during afternoons to receive help In
working out their assignment* On hand
at the CUhi* to aid student* is a profea-
mnr prepared to tackle any problem in
course* of the department he reprenenta.
Studenta may u*e the t'lmic a* a study
hall to work up future assignment* When
they encounter a point they don t under
•Hand, or run up against a problem they
can t work the itrofeaw*- w there to help

,These (Time* would best function on •
departmental baaia
lb such department* a* the Mechani
cal engineering. Electrical Engineering.
Mathematic* Chemistry. Physics, and
Petroleum Department* where problem
courses art numer«sis Math Clinic* could
serve students
The advantage of the Math Clinic over
the present system of contacting your
professor is that a student is always a*
•ured of someone being present at the
(Time, but there is no such certainty now
that an instructor will be m hut office
when students call for help
Such an ea}*»nment as the Math llinic
wa* tned in the Mechanical Kngmeenug
IVpartmeut during the final ten day* m
March of this Aear Two inKtructor* wer*- ,

In view of the Mct'arthy-lattimore
Building They were on ha no between 4
and 5 every afternoon during the time the
experiment was condiartsd
After ten day's the ME Depsrtment
abandoned the Math (Time experiment be
cause of lack of student mterant Why did
this failure develop’
The answer cuuM be one. or never*I
reasons
The Math Clinic eiqrenment and H*
purpsnss could have been msuffnientiv
explained to ME students The experiment
could have lacked the initial publicity
which should promote interest in it.

Other college* have used Math (Times
with notable success Aggie* who have at
tended Arlington State College will re
member the excellent success both the stu
dents ami the school enjoyed through the
clinic conducted there by the Msthematjc*
I >ep*rtfnent.
We feel that the Math Clinic ex|>en-
ment should be attempted again next fall
Kx;»iain it t<> students and encourage their
interest in Math Clinics.
If student* will participate in Math
('limes they will profit through better
grade* and clearvr understanding <»f |>rob-
lem* which previously stuin|>ed them
After giving the Math Clinic* another
chance the College can better determine
if thi* attempt to help student* learn is
successful.

A farmer boy observed that the |*u*-

timber wolves were ramwckmg the pantry.

As (his chane began to |»all and some
of the brothers began to aak why they
should [uy so much attention to junior,
the boy created new excitement by yell
