PRESIDENT OSWALD

UK Wants
Women

Over 25
By ELAINE STUART
"Come back, come back,
wherever you are," President
John W. Oswald told the Kentucky Federation of Business and
Professional Women's Clubs in
Louisville Saturday.
Oswald issued this invitation

to women over 23 to enroll at
UK. He noted that these women
run into problems as well as
satisfaction here, but added that
the University is determined to
solve these problems.
Outlining work being doneby
WAUK, the new program, for
women at UK, Oswald said, "It
was started just this past September, and it is designed to help
the University serve women over
the age of 25 by working out
courses, programs and schedules
to meet their particular needs."
Now there are S22 of these
women at UK, an increase of
40 percent over the same group
enrolled just last y ear. Most are
housewives, many having preschool age children. Studies most
pursued are education, home economics, library science, counselling and English.

Community Colleges Increase UK's Flexibility

By HELEN McCLOY

A willingness to change, an effort to
preserve uniqueness, and a desire for

the "educated society" were emphasized
as requisites for "The Comprehensive

Cov. Edward T. Breathitt, before announcing an $18.4 million building program in 1967 for the community colleges,
said "from time to time we must evaluate
the role of higher education" to be certain it is not "fashioned to meet an
ideal that never existed and never will."
"It is no longer adequate to seek the

technology."

LaVire added. When the other junior
colleges now authorized in Florida are
built, there will be one in commuting
distance of 95 percent of the population. Hie figure already stands at SO
percent.
As a final duty, community colleges
must establish programs, or "tracts", in
addition to the vocational-techiuca- l
programs, (nursing, agriculture, engineering,
etc.), which geneally are meant to terminate in two years when the student
joins the work force; and transfer programs, which are designed for students
who know when they enter a community
college that they will wish to continue

Between the two. Dr. LaVire hopes

7070: Good Idea
The Interfraternity Council is
to be congratulated for inaugurating a new service to the University
community, the information telephone service.
By dialing 7070 a person,
through an electronic secretary furnished by General Telephone for
$2S a month, may learn of many
of the day's events on campus.
As Mickey Miller, IFC treasurer, recently said, the future success
of this service depends on the full
cooperation of the many campus
organizations. The more information given for the phone service,
the more it will be used.
We hope that t His cooperation
will be rendered, and that this
very good idea will be allowed
to live and grow.
