Hopwood said his only concern is that the newsletter, which is not scheduled to come out until late this term, may get thrown away or lost in the shuffle when students leave at the end of Spring Term. The committee hopes to reach as many students as possible before they leave this year because some will be living off campus next year. Distrib uting the letter to students off campus would be more expensive and more difficult, he said. Raymond 0. Murphy, vice president for student affairs, said he thinks studen'ts are most inter ested in how the calendar conversion will affect classes in their discipline. ' A transition handbook will give a list of courses the University community by distributing flyers and posters, and publicizing special events such as workshops. Funds will be handled by Kathy Ankers, who is next under the term system and a comparable list under the semester system, Hopwood said. He also said the council will not allow class sizes to increase to the point where the quality of education will suffer. • , "I am always looking out for academic qual ity," Hopwood said. "It is not the intention of any member of the council to change for the sake of change." He also said much of the control on academic quality will have to come at the department level. The council is using examples from the basic classes like math, chemistry and English compo sition as models for .determining other curricula, Hopwood said. The advisory board also expressed ,concern about what the University is telling incoming freshmen about the calender conversion.

He said he was worried about how many things like the gazebos slipped by students and their representatives in student organizations. Also, Murphy said the Physical Plant Adminis tration Advisory Board should have known about the plans. Cluck said he is concerned about how the building of the gazebos can be justified in light of increasing tuition and housing costs, and dimin ishing funds.. Murphy said the gazebos will be funded by private contibptions specifically designated for the beautification of the campus.
