The four-term year will not affect a faculty member’s credit load when compared with the present two-semester arrangement; however, an additional ten weeks have been added. Many faculty members will teach only three terms; some will teach four, de pending on the contract of the in structor. •Some .of the advantages in herent in this new plan seem to be a provision for year-round opera tion of all University facilities, a chance for students who need to interrupt their studies to re-enter at more frequent intervals, an opportunity to make-up classes in shorter, less costly sessions, and an increased flexibility in scheduling which could enable a student to achieve a degree in three calendar years.
