PH10.11314 New program will aid major selection University Assistant Vice Presi dent of Academic Services Eugene Melander announced a new program last night called "Academic Major Preference and Selection," designed to help students pick the major which best suits their abilities. Melander said many majors are "out of balance" when it comes to the number of students who want to enter them and the actual amount of space available. This imbalance results in many students not getting into the majors they want, he said. The goal of AMPS is to help stu dents better understand their alterna tives and to help advisers and students have more "meaningful con tacts" by increasing the information flow between them, he said. Incoming freshmen will be asked to fill out preference cards listing the majors they are most interested in. AMPS will then send back informa tion on requirements for that major and a list of closely-related majors, Melander said. The program will "make a very big difference to students" and will oper ate "through a combination of a peo-, ple system and a computer system," he said. Melander, along with 20 other ad ministrators and fatuity members, met with students from the Golden Key Honor Society last night at the society's fourth annual President's Dinner. ::IlliteXpA411;2;416A111:6011Z1 Ira WI eIIE4IIWWII SZllnt:4 WINWINSIIII27IIX4II2 P. 9.11 t...kA 0510:111kPAIWIPA ROAM" MillarAll,,VAMMegaiergl t7:41/Mgi prel t.,•A Vtit • ;3g YZANTINEIII 4 V '4 '0 Sundays 410. 4 4. at Eisenhower Chapel s N ;20 ..
