President Seeks
Student View
on Change
Dr. John W. Oswald, President of The Penn
sylvania State University is considering a
change from a term to a semester system in the
University calendar. He is asking students,
faculty and staff members to submit to him
their recommendations on the change by Decem
ber 1, 1980.
Dr. Oswald is considering the change be
cause of apparent disenchantment with the cur
rent four-term calendar.
". . . I am inclined to conclude that Penn
State should return to a semester calendar,
specifically the early semester plan which aims
to complete all instructional activities and
exams in the fall term prior to the December
holidays," Cswald said.
However, although the calendar change is
seriously being considered, the final decision
is definitely not certain. Several of the ma
jor issues that may affect and influence Os
wald's decision are: teaching loads, availabil
ity of laboratory and classroom space, faculty
research, faculty contracts, conversion of
courses, curricula, and schedules.
Because of these issues, Dr. Oswald is
urging students, faculty and staff to give the
matter serious consideration. If enough sup
port for the change is found, the conversion
to the early semester calendar would be made
in the summer of 1984.
PE'4 LUCK FOR CC READER
Actually, this was not
supposed to happen. Our new
look this week has been forced
upon us by the breakdown of
our Compuwriter I: Repairs
are underway, so we expect to
be back to usual form by the
next issue.
Thank you, Student
Affairs, for the use of the
typewriter!
