The freshman English pro-

jGene Ilardy director of
freshman English.
The three semester se
quence, known as English X,
1 and 2 has been discontinued.
Also English 3 and 4 have
been renumbered.
Under the new system, 95
cent "f aI1 freshmen will
take two semesters of Eng

1 and 2, receiving three credit
hours for each semester.
Honors sections are now
termed English 3 and 4. and
accomodate the upper 5 per
cent of first-year students.
All sections are presently
meeting three times a week.
Hardy was quick to deny
that the measure might con
stitute a stiffening of qualifi
cations in view of the recent
hike in freshman enrollment.

To alleviate increased pres
sures on any students, the
English department is making
a veteran member of its staff
available to give extra help to
those having difficulty due to
the modification.
"However," Hardy stressed,
"students registered in the
old English 1 classes will be
allowed to complete the se
quence by taking the old Eng
lish 2, for two credits, either
in the summer or during the
fall term "
The English department em
phasized that the course con
tent of the sequence is not be
ing changed, only redistri
buted. Although students continued
to register for either English
B or 3 this semester in order
to avoid any contusions or
interruptions during registra
tion, the Registrar's office is
now changing the registration
of these students to read Eng
lish 1 (three credits).
During the past week many
students have been flocking to
221 Andrews Hall, as well as
the Registrar's office, at
tempting to get needed signa
tures in order to make the
changes officiaL
"Students wb fall one of
the English courses or re-enter
school after an absence of
one or more semesters win
be advised Individually by
either Dr. Hardy or me,"
noted Mr. Ned Hedges, assist
ant to Dr. Hardy.
Thus far the English de
partment views the innova
tion as both a necessary re
form and a probably success.
Those freshmen instructors
contacted expressed satisfac
tion with the new program.
They noted a relaxation of
previous pressures involved
in having to approach sec
tions of B and 3 differently.

and adviser to fraternities at Iowa State University, Ames,
la.
Dean Robinson, who is a guest of the IFC during Its
Pledge Education Week, compared the IFC at Nebraska
with his own at Iowa State, and stated "my Impression
of your fraternity system is very good ... I am very Im
pressed."
Robinson said that there must be no conflict between
loyalty to the fraternity and loyalty to the university. Fta
ernities must work to improve relations between them
selves and their university administrations.
Dean Robinson concluded his presentation by present
ing a model positive pledge training program.
Give the pledge a sense of belonging to a group
identified with the university, with a realization of Its re
sultant obligations.
Inculcate an understanding of the purposes of 8 uni
versity. Aid the pledge in fulfilling his academic potential.
Stimulate an interest in learning, cultural develop
ment, and the selection of a purposeful set of values.
Increase the pledge's understanding of various per
sonalities. Train the pledge in social amenities, and create op
portunities for social experiences.
Educate the pledge regarding essential matters of
his fraternity (objectives, history, traditions, lore) and
his fraternity's relationship to the greek system and to
the university.
In other action, the IFC passed a motion confirming
participation for all fraternities in the spring rush week
end, to be held March 6-7.
