Education Department Tries Out New Course A new course this year that the participants describe as “the Radical Education Pr0j~ eat" is radical — it is the first of its kind in the education de- partment — and involves inde- pendent 4-credit educational projects by 11 students who meet tor a seminar, The course intends to treat education as an academic discipline and to to. cus on how to bring about change in higher education. According to Donald Liggett (Education), who leads the dis- cussions, the course is not un- like a graduate level seminar, but is unusual in an under- graduate school. Liggett, \vho took Several graduate courses in higher education at Slam tord, was approached early last May by a group of students ivho were taking education courses and lclt. that the Grinnell curriculum lacked a course in higher education by conceit trating only on secondary school teaching There is such a wide range tor possible student projects that grading the students in the Course Will be dilticlllt. Each Tuesday night at 8:00, the 11 students meet in Conterence House, usually with a number of Conference House residents Sitting in, to discuss their inde< pendents, various reprints that nggett has made, and new ex< periments on different cam< puses. Conference House is new building a library or 59100 SCARLET AND BLACK Humanities EPC Discusses Credit The humanities division of the Educational Policies Commit! tee met Monday alternoon to discuss a variety or topics.

The reason, they were informed, was to insure that all the dormitory rooms would be filled this semesterr The new dormi- tory would have added 150 ad- ditional spaces to be filled. According to Donald Lamhie, ment. on this matter will be based on a valid concensus. The rest or the meeting was devoted to minor departmental decisions and the presentation of material to be discussed in the future meetings. Page Sn treasurer of the college, the dormitories are not presently overcrowded. He said that the dorm was first suggested along with the idea of increased en« rollment, Because of the ewe demic problems anticipated with an enlarged student body. the proposal to increase the en- rollment was dropped. Conse- quently, the need tor a new d o r m i t o ry was eliminated. Lamoie went on to say that in the last three years, runds have been directed towards the l provement at the present dormi- tories. In the near future he concluded, renovations in aca- demic buildings would have a higher priority. 1. Wow] What is it? Python LTD.
