B.G.S. Classes May Be Limited
By JEFFREY STINSON Kansan Staff Writer
Students in the new bachelor of general studies (BGS) program may be limited in the number of advanced courses they can take. Professional schools, recent inquiries indicate.
Most schools said that they would welcome B.G.S. students to introductory courses but that facilities and the number of students already in their schools would limit the number allowed to take "for-majors-only" courses.
Otherwise, the schools indicated they would make few changes in their curricular or requirements to accommodate students who onted for the new degree.
CANDIDATES FOR THE B.G.S. degree will be allowed to take no more than 25 hours toward graduation requirements in the schools of Business, Education, Fine Arts, Architecture, Engineering, Journalism, Social Welfare and Religion. This restriction was set by the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences.
"We would welcome students to take certain courses at the undergraduate level." Dale Scannell, dean of the School of Education, said, "Anyone who is seeking a liberal education should be exposed to education in the professional schools."
He said it would be inappropriate, however, for B.G.S. students to take student teaching and other directed activities in a lack of background and prerequisites.
"I DON'T SEE how we can make allowances for them," Edith Black, administrative assistant in the School of Social Welfare, said. "Our courses are filled with our own students, and we don't have any room."
She said that there would be no changes in introductory courses in the school and that courses 21, 121, 110 or any of the topics would be open to anyone in the University.
"There's no room," Thomas Korton, dean of the School of Fine Arts, said. "We have a lid clamped on the number of students we have. We have to accommodate our majors first."
B. G.S. STUDENTS will be allowed to take six hours that will count toward graduation in musical organizations such as marching band.
CHARLES KAHN, dean of the School of Architecture and Urban design, said that he considered educating clients as well as staff members in the school as little room for nominaries in the school.
"We have the problem of how to accommodate our majors, much less students who just want to understand architecture," she said. "We need two students for every three we admitted."
"Our architecture history sequence, planning theory, urbanism and theory of environmental design are courses we hope students study student would take advantage of."
Aaron Victor; Ends Classic 5 Under Par
AUGUSTA, Ga. (AP) - Tommy Aaron, a quiet, curly-haired veteran who once surprised from the Augusta National Golf Club in shane, stroud proudly past the greatest players Monday with a final row of 82 and won the 57th Masters title Monday.
Nicklaus, eight strokes off the pace when the day's play started in mild, windy weather, shouldered his way into the ranks as he ran out of sparking, six-under-per 36 for a 248 kb rating.
He leaped high in the air and brandished his putter over his head after holing a 30-shot birdie putt on the final hole while he turned. It was played, was playing the 520-yard, par-five 15th.
He replied by chipping delicately to about 14 inches and tapping in the birdie pit that 18 inches had fallen.
His 283 total, five under par, destroyed his image as golf's perennial runner-up and helped erase the haunting memory of a slip into the mud in 1968. With a chance at the Masters crown in 1968
He stunted to par in, twice making the little nuts of two to three feet, ussing a birdie on the final hole. But he still had to endure the closing bid of J. C. Snead, the sleemed 31-year-old nephew of Sam Snead, Oosterhusir, the 24-year-old Englishman who led by three strokes at the end of the third round.
Oosterhuis lost his last chance when he took six on the 18th, missing the green in three, chipping poorly and then failing to his knees in something approaching agony when a 10-foot par-saving putt refused to drop.
Both were four under par and were three holes back of Aaron.
And Snead could do no better than par on the hole that yielded litterly dozens of holes in this tournament that was postponed to be played when Saturday's round was washed out.
The 36-year-old Aaron, just a face the crowd for 13 on the pro tour, was only four under at that point and faced the fierce dangers of the famed finishing holes.
Snead, a former professional baseball player, still was very much within range, however, at one stroke back. He parried the 17th after finding a sand trap, then put his approach some 30 feet above the cup on the 18th hole.
Smeed stroked the putt that could force a
shot. It just slid by an Aren was a winner.
Spokesmen in other schools said that prerequisites would be a problem for B.G.S. students, because fulfilling prerequisites would use up most of the 28-hour allotment or would be too specific for a general studies program.
"BUSINESS IS PRETTY professional for students who are looking for broad subjects." Arnor Knappe, associate professor of business said. "By the time they get the prerequisites, they would come pretty close to using up their 25 hours."
The School of Business now requires students to take 17 prerequisite hours before graduation.
Krupper said that he did not expect to be flooded by general studies students wanting to take upper-division courses but that the courses they possibly could be made in certain cases.
"They must present a proposal with reasons explain why they want to take action."
THE STUDENT who wants to learn about engineering without majoring in the field would have to take 15 hours of junior and senior calculus, physics and analytical geometry, according to Donald Metzler, associate dean of the School of Engineering
qualified," he said. "If a student presents a proposal, we should be prepared to consider it and
"We don't have any restrictions in any of our courses, provided the student has the prerequisites," he said. "I don't think we'll need a precalculus." B.G.S. students because of prerequisites.
The School of Journalism School Committee decided Friday to recommend to the committee restitution that entrance requirements remain the same, Lee Young, associate dean, said.
He said that it would be difficult to determine the effects of the B.G.S. degree on his job.
"IT MAY ALTER the requirements from
the viewpoint that after 30 hours the student may elect to come over for the professional degree but he won't have the traditional and sophomore requirements," he said.
The same undergraduate religion courses are open to B.G.S. students as are open to bachelor of arts candidates. Cources count as humanities distribution credit.
The Kansas School of Religion presently offers a graduate degree but no uni-
"We're hoping that the B.G.S. may create more of a demand for a major in the College of Liberal Arts," Robert Shelton, assistant professor of religion, said. "There is presently a proposal for a 24-hour major program before the College.
