B-2 6. W. U. Infensifies 4-Year Course fo Speed Graduations Summer Terms to Open To Permit Completion In 2%4 Years George Washington University an- nounced today that, because of the war, its educational program is be- ing concentrated so that students can complete the regular four-year course in approximately two and ® half years. ‘The result will be gained by inten- sification of the summer school course, so that it will be posctible to earn a degree by attending two full years and three summer sessions. In this way high school students graduating in June could earn their degrees by the close of the summer session in 1944. Students will at- tend two six-week terms during the summer, replacing the former nine- week terms. Begins June 22. ‘The first summer session will be- gin on June 22 and the second on August 6, concluding on September 18. Class periods during these terms will be 60 minutes in length. The establishment of the summer terms also will permit junior college students to earn their certificates in a shorter period. Two summers and one full-year session will be the equivalent of the normal two-year course. All students entering the school of medicine will be required to start classes on June 8, instead of Sep- tember 21. Students in medical schools, all of whom receive selec- tive service deferments pending the completion of their education, will be graduated in two and two-thirds years. Two Years for Law School. ‘The law school course can be fin- {shed, under the new system, in two years instead of the usual three. By concentrating the prelegal work it will be possible during the war emergency to complete both pre- legal and legal work in four years instead of seven. The school of engineering will operate on the two-term basis also during the summer. At the same time it was announced that the uni- versity would give a number of spe- cial courses next semester, fitting Into defense work.
