COMPLETE CAMP COVERAGE VOL. 27, No. 38 Adoption of 7-Hour Schedule Must Come Slowly, Says Bissey Inadequate Laboratory Space Cited As Problem PROPOSAL MIGHT PROVE PRACTICAL IN 3 SCHOOLS Eliminating 4 O'clock Classes • Would Curtail Electives, Officer Declares That a very gradual adoption of the 7-hour day plan to provide for two-hour recreation period would be the only Possible method of cutting the 1 o'clock hour from the daily scholastic schedule, is the opinion of Cyrus V D. Bissey, College schedul e= officer. "Insurmountable difficulties would crop up if the plan •vine adopted next semester on a wholesale scale." Mr Ilissey maintained "For instance, if the 7-hour project Were put into effect at once, four Schools, Agriculture, Chemistry and Physics, Engineering and Mineral Industrie% would find it next to inmossible to adiust their cur ricula to suit such a schedule " The plan, he pointed out, might be practical for the Schools of Educa tion, Libeial Arts, and Physical edu cation and Athletics In time, he stated, moos of the scheduling prob lems may be seised so that the plan might be generally adopted, but sonic courses could never become adjusted For example, architectural engineer are required to tale many hours a week of supervised drafting. This would be impossible under the 7-hour plan. Lack LaVaratarr.ftace— "In arranging class schedules each semester," the scheduling officer pointed out. "I have found that on an It-hour daily program all curricula having over Unity-five hours per week were extiemely difficult to sichedule Working on this assump tion every course having more than this ty Ileum per week would be diffi volt to , handle undo the 7-hour plan. At preent only seven percent of the courses in College requite thirty-five hours a week If the dav's schedule were shortened an hour, thirty-three percent of the curricula would have over thirty limns per week It is evi- dent, then, that scheduling difficulties would he increased five times under the new plan " Lack of laboratory space, Mr. Ohs cry contended, is ut preaent the main objection to the plan. Students tak ing courses requiring work in engi neering drawing, advanced chemistry, roology liiboratoi v, bacteriology, air ritultural chemistry; and advanced physics, would find sections so crowd td that schedule arrangements would lie impossible without running into the 1 o'clock hour Conditions in the School of Agi i culture, it wao his belief, might b• /e hayed if the proposed Deity budding Is constructed.
