Four Semester Plan Not Likely Next Year
Of The Sixty Universities Questioned Sixteen Per Cent Use System
The four semester plan is not likely to go into effect next year, according to the Senate committee which has had the plan under consideration.
The Kansan has received answers from sixty institutions in reply to a questionnaire sent out some time ago asking for the four semester plan, universities.
Ten of the sixty universities, slightly more than sixteen per cent have already adopted the four term year. They are Chicago, Texas, Stanford, Oregon, University of Washington, Utah, Dartmouth, Mississippi, Georgia, New Mexico.
Of the remaining fifty, ten reported that they were considering the plan. These institutions are Maine, Syracuse, North Dakota, Boston, Carnegie Institute of Technology, Western Reserve, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Pittsburgh, Ohio State.
Letters from the heads of the other forty universities indicated that the two semester year with a summer school is proving entirely satisfactory.
So far as the Kansan has been able to learn the belief that conditions warrant a radical change to a four term year at the University of Kansas is held by very few members of the faculty or students.
