nation's fiber already had been tested and had proved strong.
He said he reported on the state of a union at peace with every nation of the world" and could therefore concentrate his message on proposals for home front action.
NIXON ALSO SENT Congress a 35,000-word written message which charted his
"Looking at the year 1974 which lies before us, there are 10 landmark accomplishments that are possible," the President said.
Among the possible accomplishments are:
-An end to the energy crisis.
-Taking another giant stride toward lasting peace in the world.
—Checking the rise in prices
- Establishment of a new system of high quality health care.
—A crucial breakthrough for better transportation.
A historic beginning for the fight to protect personal privacy.
A new start for reform of the welfare system.
-Establishment of the economic framework within which Americans will share more fully in expanding worldwide trade.
NIXON THEN SAID he was reporting a
new development, Citing the disengagement of Israeli and Arab forces, Nixon said an early meeting would be called to discuss the lifting of the oil oil em
He said the country would spend $10 billion in research on energy in the five years, but private industry would spend $100 billion.
Saying the time is at hand to bring comprehensive health care within the reach of every American, he proposed a health insurance program against the costs of catastrophic illness.
Grading . . .
OTHER EXAMS are necessary, he says,
because a student "needs to know during
the semester what the professor feels
is want. They also tell you what you don't
know."

Jim Hall, Overland Park sophomore, says a treed toward professors placing him in the top five.
"It used to be to be they counted enough to ruin your grade," he says. "I don't know whether it is because professors have realized the futility or ridiculousness of placing the whole grade on the final exam or what."

CWC...
didn't like being assigned to a CWC on the basis of a living group.
"There were advantages of other CWCs that were off limits to me because my scholarship hall was assigned to a different CWC." Dyck said.
THE THREE CWCS THAT offer special educational programs have been faced with criticism since the programs were implemented.
"There's one easy reason the educational programs failed," said Robert P. Cobb, director of Numerism College. "They were prepared before they were really ever tried."
Nunamaker College dropped its tutorial program after only two students signed up.
Quinn said there had been signs of curricular innovation in CWC educational programs but the programs couldn't attract students because of a lack of resources.
Quain said the CWC had mistakenly been seen as a challenge to departments because the CWCs were so innovative and could encroach on the department's domain.
The Pearson Integrated Humanities Program (PIHP) is the strongest educational program in any of the CWCs, Cobb said.

solidarity, but group solidarity often tends to unsettle people," he said.
*Essentially the Eastern Civilization program is open to all students, but we do not give permission to enter.*
North College offers Eastern Civilization as an alternative to the Western Civilization requirements, said Elliot Gillerman, director of North College.
"I it's nice that the CWCs have special programs, but fine arts students don't get to see them," said Dee Thompson, sophomore, "I hope the fine arts department can set up their own programs."
Gary Ayers, Mulvane senior, said the WE programs had become too exclusive to the program.
"The activities and tours that Pearson College offers have become very exclusive because they are designed around the Pearson Humanities program," said Sally Walton, Webster, S.D., freshman in Pearson College.

"The Pearson Humanities program has prepared me for upperclass work," said Vicki Markley, Kansas City, Kan. "I am a pre-graduate. I prepared me for going out into the world."
SUSAN RAPP, OVERLAND PARK
sompomore, said she wanted Pearson
College to sponsor more activities for the
students. The programs were limited to PHIP students.
Tara Masish, St. Cloud, Minn. sophomore, said she had wanted to participate in the PIHP, but that the program wasn't flexible enough for a pre-maed student.
"Iliked being in Pearson English because I like to read classics instead of contemporary works," said Suzy Stutz, Topeka, junior.
Karne Dirks, Dodge City senior, said she thought the CWC educational programs weren't restrictive, but she said she would have to go back for CWC if she had been given a choice.

"IAM IN FAVOR OF giving students the choice of selecting a CWC," said Debby Westlake, Wichita senior. "However, the University is so involved in power politics and no one is willing to take the risk of being invited to another department or another CWC."
Becky Bergman, Seneca sophomore, said she thought the educational programs had been phased out because they were never adequately publicized."
"If students are given the choice, there is the chance that one CWC will become larger than the others, thus gaining more money for their education and accessibility is lost because of power politics."
beyond public education The future of the CWC educational
programs are still in doubt. Last fall the College Assembly voted to eliminate curricular features and concentrate on strengthening the advancing system, Cobb said.

A REPORT ROM THE ad hoc Committee of the Future of the Colleges-With-the-CWC recommended that an experimental CWC program be developed immediately faults in the existing CWC programs.
"I am a great believer in the Colleges Within-the-College," said Cobb. "I just think that we have talked about and dropped some of the worthy objectives of the program without ever evaluating their value to the University."
