Summer in Europe
3
Language programs set
By CHARLA JENKINS Early next week, approximately 100 KU students wil make final arrangements for a summer in Europe.
By CHARLA JENKINS
The students will take part in the KU Summer Language Institutes in France, Germany and Spain.
In 1960, T. A. Burzle, professor of German, conceived a summer program where KU students could receive their second year of language study under ideal conditions, in the country where the language is spoken. The 1967 program is the seventh year KU students have taken part.
FRENCH STUDENTS study in Paris, which Spanish is studied in Barcelona. There are two German programs, one held in the little town of Holzkirchen, south of Munich. The advanced German study program, for second or third year students, is held in Eutin, near Kiel.
The institute program is a study program. Students attend classes and are given six credit hours for the study.
Classes are supplemented with cultural activities. Trips and sightseeing tours are offered.
THE STUDY PROGRAM lasts a little over eight weeks. Cost from New York to the country and back to New York is $800 for Kansas residents and $900 for non-residents. This covers transportation, housing, and expenses.
From 30 to 35 students in each language will be included. All KU students go over by one chartered plane. Quota is determined by housing conditions and bus accommodations.
Each year, the individual language departments turn in a list of interested students. Application blanks are made available
German writings are lecture topic
Peter Demetz, Yale University's German department chairman, will present a lecture on East German literature 8 p.m. Monday in the Forum Room of the Kansas Union.
Demetz's talk. "Literature in Ulbricht's Germany: Voices Behind the Wall," is being sponsored by KU's German department and is one of the series of University Lectures.
J. A. BURZLE, chairman of the German department, said, "this is the first time we have been able to hear anything about East German literature. It should be a fascinating occasion for anyone interested in what is happening in Communist-controlled sections of Europe."
Demetz will be at KU for three days, from Sunday until Tuesday. No other speeches have been scheduled for him.
Burzle cited Demetz as "one of the leaders in German literature." The lecture Monday evening will be given in English.
Rock Chalk origin
The famous phrase "Rock Chalk" was originated by Prof. A. R. Marsh who was connected with the English department from 1886 to 1889. The term was suggested to him by the chalk stretum of the Cretaceous geological period which covers the state and has several outeroppings on the Hill.
by Christmas. The language department makes recommendations and a committee, headed by Francis Heller, associate dean of the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences, makes the final appointments.
According to Heller, several
universities have similar summer programs, but none of them are as "academic" as KU's.
Heller said, "This study program is just that. People are over there to study. They enjoy themselves, but they spend a great deal of time in the classroom."
SMOP to sell food
"Scholarship Money is our Purpose" (SMOP), an Associated Women Student's (AWS) committee, will sell sandwiches in all living groups next Sunday from 5 to 6:30 p.m.
The money raised from the sale goes into scholarships to be given out this spring. The number of scholarships given depends on how much money SMOP raises this year. Each scholarship amounts to $300.
SMOP gives scholarships according to need, academic achievement, and campus activities.
Along with the sandwiches, SMOP will also sell hard boiled eggs, potato chips, dill pickles, and candy bars.
