' EARN COLLEGE CREDIT 2000 Men and Women Take University Work in Study Centers. More than 2,000 men and women have earned university credit in the 100 study centers sponsored by the university extension divi sion, it was revealed in the Uni versity Extension News issued last week. Because of the interest shown by students over the state, the department is preparing to set up new study centers in co-operation with the county superintend ents of schools, the bulletin states. ; Enrollment in the organization is in terms of university hours and the work, when satisfactorily com pleted, can be applied towards an undergraduate degree, used for certification purposes, or trans ferred from the University of Ne braska to some other institution. Last summer there was one county in the state in which three study centers were operating simultaneously. The interest thown in the projects is partly attributed to the fact that students attending the centers could stay at home, thus saving money. Men and women enrolling in the study centers must agree to spend a minimum of five hours a day, five days a week, in attendance and work at the center, and the ex tension division advises those reg istering to enroll for not fewer than one-half nor more than three fnurthn as manv hours as there are weeks in which the project is to operate. Tnus, a center wnicn plans to operate for a period of eight weeks should have enroll ment for not fewer than six hours and not more than nine hours of work. Students must furnish thilr own texts, meet the postage expense on lessons sent in and returned, and must provide themselves with the necessary Btudy supplies and equipment.
