the Kernel yesterday that the

"The Court of Appeals decision

M. M. White said, "If the schedule

which will eliminate great con- fusion, (1) the exam schedules (2)

than In normal classroom atmosphere.
In answering one phase of the
questionnaire which asked the student what he considered the
roughest part of the course, one
person quite honestly said, "This
test WOW!!!"
The program's audience evidently consisted of many besides those

One such letter was from a

Dr. Snow guessed that about

Continuing he said, "The fact
that it's taken hold of the community shows a lot of people are
understanding anthropology at a
level they never have before."
The services of the program has
been extended to nine surrounding colleges by Arts and Science
Dean M. M. White.
Students of these colleges may
get credit for the course by paying
a certain fee to the University and

The Trimester Plan
plan that would offer college
students an opportunity to complete
their studies and receive their degrees
in two years and seven months instead of the traditional "four years"
without increasing the work load for
any school terms would probably be
hailed by students with little reserA

vation.
Such a program is being followed
at several American universities. The
program that can so drastically
shorten a student's college career is

the trimester plan.
Under it, unlike the quarterly system, the school year would be divided
into three equal parts instead of the
two full sessions and the half-tersummer session in effect here. Fall
classes would begin immediately
after Labor Day and the fall session
would end immediately before the
Christmas holidays. The spring semester would begin after the New Year's
break and end in April. The third
term would run from April to August.
The benefits to be derived from
such a plan in addition to shortening
the number of years spent in college
by the majority of students would
enable the University to operate at
lower costs in the long run. The same
maintenance crew is necessary to
keep up UK in the summer as is
required during the other two semesm

ters.
Because it pays its electric bills
on a demand basis rather than a consumption basis, the University pays
as much for electricity in the summer
as it does at any other time.
Most UIC dormitories are unoc

cupied in. the summer, yet interest
on bonds issued to finance the newer
dorms must be paid just the same.
In spite of the smaller number of
students, the University costs just
about as much to run in the summer
as it does in the fall.
A trimester plan would not only
benefit those students who would like
to get out of the University in two
years and seven months, but would
actually help those who have to work
during vacations to pay their way
through school. A UK student would
have the advantage of being able to
decide whether he would rather work
in the summer, fall, or spring. There
are many instances where jobs that
are stiffly contested for in the summer are easy to get in the winter when
all other college students are back
in school.

There are very few people who can
intelligently argue why college students should have a full 16 weeks of
vacation a year. Students who graduate and enter the business world
certainly do not find many jobs which
offer them more than two weeks vacation in a year. A student who feels
he must have a
vacation
can however, take his vacation in the
summer, fall, or spring.
While the University calendar for
1960-6- 1
has already been drawn up
and approved, a trimester plan should
be considered by the University Faculty and the Board of Trustees from
the outlook of efficiency of operation
and economy. Such a plan would be
an excellent addition to the campus
three-mont- h

Basketball In A Cage
With two successful Auburn free
throws and a blocked shot in the
final seconds, Kentucky's Wildcats
were virtually eliminated from the
Southeastern Conference basketball
race Saturday night in Alabama. It
was a saddening loss for Coach
Adolph Rupp's team, which played
one of its better games.
"fair
Now we expect the

basketball domination is gone forever, perhaps it is not. If it is, we

These will come despite Coach
Bupp's irrefutable expertness as a
basketball coach and the Kentucky
players' determined endeavor throughout the season. They will come although Kentucky recognizably had
one of its weaker squads in years.
But we think this season has taught
UK basketball fans a lesson. Now
they should be more appreciative of

The Readers Forum
Beautification of the UK campus at
night would lie an asset to the school
and to those who pass this way.
The task is simple.
The Fine Arts building on Rose

Street could be lighted each evening
instead of just on nights of Cuignol
productions or special events. The
building is one of the more leautiful
on campus and the evening lighting
would add to the impression of the
entire University.
Memorial Hall is another building
that could be made very attractive
as an evening landmark on campus
with a few lights directed on its pillars ami the clock tower.
These are but two examples of
buildings that artis
