They cOtild recommend to- the de partments that the plan- be fol lowed, he said. The original resolution, as pass ed by ,the All-College Cabinet and submitted to the. committee is as follows:.-.;V'.. .. - “The All-College Cabinet peti tions -the- Senate Committee on Student 'Welfare to. recommend- to their faculty members- that final examinations, covering :■ the . com plete course, - be- eliminated:. This request-’does- not - refer- to blue books' -which- would-- include- part of the semester’s class work. “It has been pointed out by students - that- four .or- five final class- examinations- would create hurried “cram” sessions in a -last minute effort to review the whole course,- would entail the taking of four-or five final examinations in one day, and would- place a strain upon professors ■ who would be compelled to correct the final papers in- two. or three days, ar range-for the- next semester’s courses, and. act as registering clerks, scheduling officers, • and advisers. “It is understood by students that some examinations cannot be eliminated and that bluebooks probably must jbe given in every course. But) .the reviewing of a semester’s work in .a hurried week of study, which includes regular class work,', and. the. attempt to cover the entire course in a. one hour final. examination would be Useless and not worth while.” - fa THE DAILY COLLEGIAN We, 'Die Women May Day—To Be Or Not To Be As the entire College rapidly adapts its program to meet the war emergency, WSGA Senate. is l/on dering changes to make in its cal endar. One of the questions it faces is the feasibility of having May .Day and, if it is scheduled, when. to have it. As the date now stands, it is planned for the Saturday sec ond semester ends. - Before definite-decision is reach ed, both sides of the question must be weighed: In such times; is it wise- to completely eliminate cele brations such as this? : May Day. would serve a definite purpose by affording, students an opportunity .to "celebrate a tradi tion, something .which marks the Spring season. Since it is cele brated in conjunction with Moth ers’ -Days, festivities would honor mothers-when the sacrifices they are making seem greatest. > Such e xercises would-have a prominent place in building good will among students. No one can . work through months without some diversion, and . May Day would be welcome interlude. .- On the other side, there is the argument that such a celebration would be useless waste of time and money. Many think there is a less spectacular way of celebrating the tradition and honoring mothers. ■ The time, they claim, could -be used toward training for defense; the money, -toward, defense bonds or other worthy causes. . ' Whatever WSGA Senate decides - will probably have to be tentative pending additional, changes in the . College calendar. But we may be assured that all angles of the sit uation will ibe studied and that the decision will be one it feels in keeping with the best interests of the students, the College, and the nation.
