EDUCATIONAL. Accelerated Program 0fC. U. Openfo All In Arfs and Sciences Dean Campbell Announces Means for Cutting Lay Terms From 4 to 3 Years To make Catholic University’s recently announced accelerated pro- gram of studies during the war emergency apply to all full-time undergraduates in the college of erts and sciences, the Very Rev. James M. Campbell, dean of the college, announced yesterday two methods by which the school term for all lay students may be reduced from four to three years. Freshmen who enroll in the col- lege next June may attend the six- week courses in the summer ses- sionggof 1942, 1943 and 1944, plus an additional course in the accelerated program of study in the same years to qualify for graduation at the end of the academic year 1944-5 instead of 1945-6. Those who enter the college at the opening of the regular term next September on an accelerated program must attend the summer session of 1943 for 12 weeks and the summer session of 1944 for six weeks and be graduated at the end | of the academic year 1944-5 in-| stead of 1945-6. Arrangements for Seniors. Students now enrolled in the col- lege may also advance their grad- uation day by fulfilling certain re- quirements. Seniors who complete 34 basic courses at the end of the present semester, which terminates Saturday, may elect one extra basic course of study for the second se- mester, which begins February 2, and thus qualify for graduation on May 29. Seniors who have com- pleted less than 34 basic courses at the end of the present semester may also be able to work out a pro- gram of extra courses during the second semester which will qualify them for graduation by the end of the summer session in early August. | Similarly, members of the junior class who may have deficiencies at the end of the first semester of this year's school term may participate in the accelerated program and re- duce the four-year term to three. And members of the sophomore class of 1944, by taking the accelerated program, could finish in August or September, 1943, while freshmen could complete sufficient credits in the summer sessions to graduate in May or June, 1944. Defense Courses Open. Dean Campbell also .announced that non-credit national defense courses in navigation and funda- mental electronics will be open to lay students of all the schools of the university during the second semester, beginning February 1. These studies will be helpful in equipping students to pass Naval Reserve and other defense exam- | inations. A primary course in the use of logarithms, solution of tri- angles and other material from plane trigonometry will be available | for students from 5:10 to 6 pm. Wednesdays and Fridays. A second course adapted to aircraft naviga- tion will be scheduled for the same period Tuesdays and Thursdays. ‘The course in fundamental elec- | tronics, designed to familiarize the | student with radio and allied de- | vices, and entail two hours of lec- tures and two hours of laboratory work from 7 to 9 o'clock each Mon- day and Wednesday evening. These courses are open to full- time students without extra charge, while part-time students will be required to pay a nominal fee. | Defense bonds will be awarded | as door prizes at the annual prom | of the junior class of Catholic Uni- versity at the Shoreham Hotel the evening of February 10, Chairman Michael Morrisey of the committee announced.
