Texas students
live on $16 month
320 bendFiTb Unis
co-operative housing
AUSTIN, Tex. (I.P.). At the
University of Texas, 320 students
are getting: an education and liv
ing comfortably for the price of
three packages of cigarettes daily.
The 320 students are residents
of the university's fifteen co-oper
ative houses, established on the
campus since 1936. In cold figures
they are actually paying board
and room expenses with 50 cents
a day, figures released here show.
Save $40,000 a Year.
University officials estimate
that the whole group saves $40,
000 a year, and declares that if
co-operative housing could be pro
vided for the entire campus
enough money would be saved an
nually to retire the state deficit in
ten years.
While the average student
spends $30 and the dormitory resi
dent, $45 to $55 a month, the
"co-oporativc houser" spends an
average of $15.90 for room and
board.
"Co-operative housing will revo
lutionize America's system of liv
ing," one administrator predicted
after checking comparative living
costs. "If we turn out two nun
dred students a year who know
they can live comfortably on that
little money, think of what may
happen ten years from now when
the movement has spread back
home.

new teaching plan
Uses 'undergraduate
faculties' successfully
CAMBRIDGE, Mass. (ACP)
Pointing the way to what miy be
come a new system of U. S. edu
cation. Harvard university au
thorities have declared successful
the experimental plan of training
high school graduates by "under
graduate faculties."
Designed to aid high school
graduates who cannot attend col
lege, the nation's oldest university
has created classes that are taught
by students. Under the new sys
tem, 50 Boston h'gh school alumni
have followed college courses un
der the volunteer tutelage of 100
Harvard undergraduates, most of
them honor men.
Classes in the unique course
meet at night in the dormitory of
"faculty members." There they
have relayed on to them the ma
terial that the "teachers" have
learned in their college courses.
The "pickapack scholar" plan is
being continued this semester, and
has interested National Youtn Ad
ministration officials, who are con
sidering offering this work to col
lege students who now receive
government aid.
Besides learning In evening
classes, the "pickapack scholars"
watch experiments in the univer
sity's laboratories and have full
use of the university's libraries.

Tennessee aids
'flunked out' frosh
Claim one quarter not
enough for adjustment
KNOXVILLE, Tenn. (IP.) The
bewildered" college freshman ia
being given a helping hand at the
University of Tennessee this year,
with the university's new guidance
program in effect.
Instead of following the age
old regulation of suspending all
who "flunked out" during the fall
quarter, university officials have
allowed many of the first year stu
dents to re-enroll this quarter, as
signing them to special faculty ad
visers who will aid in solving their
difficulties.
"The university feels that some
freshmen should have more than
one quarter to adjust themselves
to the college program," explained
Dr. R. F. Thomason, registrar.
"After they overcome the bewild
erment of a new environment, we
can tell whether they are capable
of doing college work. Meantime,
we should offer them all the guid
ance possible."
