UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS Office of the Chancellor December 4, 1944, ™O HEADS OF DEPARTMENTS ; The schedule of the conferences on the 1945 summer session budget is given below. Although the length of the session has not been decided, it is suggested that department heads come to the conference with recommenda- tions as to courses and instructors for an eight-weeks session start- ing about June 27 and ending about August 17. (Medical departments will need to submit also their recommendations for the summer session.) There seems to be no basis for forecasting probable enrellment, but the consensus is that the registration of regular students may not exceed one-half of the pre-war figure. In addition, a number of veterans ~- possibly as many as 100 -- will be enrolled. Departmental offerings should be selected to meet the needs of both groups. This will call for a wider and richer choice of courses than the normal summer session has afforded, but we are hoping that the Legislature will approve our re- quest for a special appropriation to cover the added cost of providing courses needed by veterans who desire to accelerate their programs. Please bring to the conference any information which may have a bearing on the discussions. Conference will be held in Mr. Nichols! office. The committee for each conference will consist of the University Budget Committee, the summer session director, and the deans and depart- ment heads interested in the work of the department concerned. The mem- bers of the Budget Committee are Dean #.B. Stouffer (chairman), Dean P.B. Lawson, Dean J. Allen Reese, and Raymond Nichols (secretary).

THE UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS SCHOOL OF EDUCATION LAWRENCE December 5, 1944 To Education Staff Members: The budget conferences for the 1945 summer session are scheduled to begin Monday, December 11. While dates have not been officially set, the tentative plan is to start the 8-week session about June 27. The Schocl of Education is asked to present its program to the budget committee on December 18. You are asked to submit any suggestions that you may have as to the kind of offerings that this school should provide for the 1945 summer session. Which of our regular tourses should be offered? Is there any special area from which offerings should be set up to meet the needs of any group that you have in mind? Do you heve any suggestions as to institutes or workshops? It is important that we pool our judgments on the kind of program that will meet the 1945 summer session demands. I shall appreciate your suggestions and cooperation. Very truly yours, os ) og i es (Pree fd. W. Twente _f Dean UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS LAWRENCE DEPARTMENT OF PHYSICAL EDUCATION December 14, 1944, Dear Dr. Allen: I am suggesting the following courses which we might offer in the eight weeks summer session: 202. Organization and Administration of Physical Education 100. Principles of Community Recreation 200. Theory and Practice of Athletic Training and if there is some way that we can offer some coaching or a coaching clinic, we might teach football, basketball and track. be offered returning veterans and those students who are not able to take our’regular physical fitmess courses. This course would be adapted to the needs of the returning service men and those who are disabled or for any reason unfit to take regular physical education. a fours’ to me that a course labeled "Adapted Sports" might The objective, of course, would be to teach each boy rules, skills and strategy of activities and sports which the individual can engage in without undue strain or damage to his wellbeing, and at the same time provide him with types of physical recreation which he can engage in throughout most of his life. The activities in the course would necessarily have to be adapted to fit the needs of the various individuals who would make up the class. I believe the course should carry one hour credit, and we might need more than one instructor hand] ing ite I suspect that we might have to go before the College faculty and get the course approved as we have never offered anything exactly like this. These are merely suggestions. I will be glad to talk with you at your convenience. Sincerely yours, In addition to Organization and ek of Physical Education, Principles of Community Recreation, and Theory and lractice of Athletic Training, I believe we should offer courses in the following activities: Football, Basketball, Track, Baseball, a major course in Officiating, and a refresher course in Gymastics. I will submit a sample program. i
