A General Statement About the
Summer Programs

The academic work to be offered during the summer of 1943
is more extensive than that of previous summers, owing to the
military needs of the day. For the first time a regular summer
semester (May 22—September 11) has been planned, allowing
those in the armed forces, and others on an accelerated schedule,
to continue with their studies on a twelve-months-a-year basis.
The School of Engineering and Architecture, however, will not
start its summer semester until July 1, as the result of the as-
signment at that date of a group of naval Engineering students
who will hereafter form an important part of the student body of
the school; but for V-1 and V-7 students, and Engineering students
with deficiencies to make up, as well as for entering students in
Engineering who are deficient in mathematics or who wish to get
an early start on their work, a special five-weeks’ interim program
(May 22—June 26) has been provided.

As during previous summers, there is to be a regular Summer
Session (eight weeks in length), designed especially to serve the
needs of teachers in the public schools who may wish to continue
their training, and those of other classes of graduate students.
Work is also offered for students in the College of Liberal Arts
and Sciences and:in the School of Fine Arts—particularly for
beginning students in these two divisions who desire to earn
some credits before the fall semester but who cannot attend the
entire summer semester.

Several short independent courses have been organized for
particular classes of students who, for one reason or another,
cannot do needed work in courses otherwise offered. -

Questions about the summer programs which are not answered
in the pages which follow should be addressed to the Registrar
of the University, Dr. Laurence C. Woodruff, or to the dean of

the school concerned.
