Intercollegiate Press Bulletin
Medford, Mass. Fresh
men at Tufts University will
have a choice this year be
t w e e n seminar courses
taught by students and sem
inar courses taught by
faculty members.
The students maintain
that freshmen learn more
when the class leader is
"asking them not telling
them."
The faculty stresses the
hope "that the opportunity
for social contact in an in
tellectual context between
faculty members and fresh
men will give the student
an insight into the lively
practice of intellectual en
deavor and discovery."
FRIENDLY RIVALRY
The friendly student-faculty
rivalry is the result of
separate efforts by student
members of the Experimen
tal College Board and fac
ulty members of the Com
mittee on Curriculum to
provide alternatives to the
usual lecture and labora
tory courses now offered
freshmen.
Students have long main
tained that such courses are
too impersonal. The semi
nars will be small group dis
cussions on selected topics.
Women's
Honorary
Holds Tea
Alpha Lambda Delta,
freshman women's honor
ary, will sponsor a tea for
all female recipients of Re
gents Scholarships Thurs
day at 4 p.m. in the Ne
braska Union.
The tea is held each year
to encourage these recipi
ents or maintain high schol
arship at the University.
The honorary is also
planning a fall initiation for
women who achieved an
accumulative grade aver
age of 3.5 second semester
of last year.
Current officers for the
honorary include Vicki
Schick, president; Rilda
Baker, vice president;
Pamela Carter, secretary;
Carol Ann Fling, treasur
er; Carrie Douglas, histori
an; Jane Sitorius, news
editor.

HELP WANTED
Student Experimen
tal College Board members
who proposed the seminars
said they are intended to de
velop a questioning attitude
in freshmen. '
VARIETY TEACHING
They are not to teach a
set of facts or a particular
piece of knowledge, but how
to go about acquiring any
desired knowledge.
The classes will meet
twice a week with one or
two upperclass leaders;
note taking will not be dis
couraged, and each fresh
man will be required to
keep a journal for entries at
the end of each discussion.
The students, in propos
ing these seminars, de
scribed the freshman year
as "a dismal and drudgery
filled experience."
OPEN SEMINARS
The college board chose
student-led seminars be
cause "freshmen will open
up more with another stu
dent than with a professor.
They still have their pre
vious conception of a pro
fessor as an infallible
source of knowledge," and
"the leader is exploring the
topics with tp" students and

The faculty, in proposing
their seminars, will begin
this September to include a
considerably wider variety
of courses. The faculty will
limit each class to 10 stu
dents. STUDENT BENEFIT
The formal faculty report
describes the seminars as
"explorations in diverse in
tellectual areas." In stating
reasons for instituting the
seminars the report said:
"In these seminars the
benefits of individual in
struction may be realized;
independent and analytical
thinking will be encour
aged; new educational ex
periences both in areas of
study and in type of study
will be made available to
incoming freshmen; the im
portance of intensive stu
dy as opposed to extensive
survey will be emphasized.
"It is believed that faculty-designed
and faculty-directed
freshman seminars
will contribute to satisfying
a strongly-felt need among
both freshmen and faculty
for well-focused and di
rected investigations in lim
ited areas."

"The course is an entirely new approach to reading
and learning. It's most valuable characteristic is the
knowledge it gives a student about his own capabil
ities. It no lousier makes all the material we want
to read seem so unsurmountable instead, through
selection by preview and depth reading of import
ant material, it is possible to accomplish much."

"The course helps with studying, particularly in cov
ering large amounts of material for reference pur
poses. It also allows you to cover a subject in depth
and gain a further knowledge above what von could
normally obtain in a given amount of time."

"Beading Dvnamick is an excellent way to improve
your present reading potential. It is a truly satisfy
ing Hay of lecomiii a more efficient, faster reader.
Jt will increase your desire to read, as you can read
the same material you are now reading in less time
with less effort. There isn't any limit to the amount
you can learn when you apply yourself."

"After completing the course I can read more and do
it in less time. Heading has become a more mean
ingful and rewarding experience. This course would
be beneficial for any high school student, but es
pecially those contemplating college. Not only is it
nclpful in reading novels and fiction, but also very
helpful in studying texts."
