Did You Know There's Trouble In Tahiti?
With the average college student moaning about going to school four years, the School of Engineering and Architecture has quietly been one of the pioneers in a drive for a 5-year program for engineering students.
You've Got 4 - Care To Try For 5?
"Although there are very few engineering schools in the country that offer a 5-year program, we have had such a system at KU for over 10 years," said T. DeWitt Carr, dean of the School of Engineering and Architecture.
"We encourage students who have the time and money to take advantage of the extra year," Dean Carr said.
The added year is offered for those who desire a year of liberal arts work in addition to the 4-year engineering course.
To be eligible for the 5-year degree, a student must complete 30 additional hours in the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences besides the 60 required of all engineering students, Dean Carr said.
Bachelor of Science degree in the engineering department in which he is graduating besides the regular Bachelor of Science degree.
Then he may be granted
The first year may be spent in any established college or junior college recognized by the University. The student may complete the 30 hours at any time during his college career.
"The number of engineering students who are taking advantage of this special degree is small but has been increasing slowly since the program was established," Dean Carr said.

Group Organizes KU Statisticians
Twenty faculty and graduate students have organized into a group called KU Statisticians. They are interested in facts and information through the use of statistics.
"The group meets every two weeks to discuss a topic of statistical interest," said Robert R. Sokal, assistant professor of entomology and organizer of the group. "Statistics is becoming more important in the various fields," he said, adding that the University has not had such an interest in statistics.
"Statistics is used in two different meanings." Mr. Sokal said. "One is the actual data, and the other is the analization and evaluation of this data," he said.
