Extension Courses Touch All
Walks of Life.
Correspondence Work Reaches from the
Sheep Ranges of Oregon, to High
Plateaus of Thibet.
Prom eastern Oregon sheep herders
to Indian school teachers, come applica
tions in as many varied forms to the head
of the extension division for registration
in many branches of study.
A Mr. Porassala, who is teaching a
school in South Tracanhore. India, sends
a postal asking for outlines of corres
pondence courses, offered by the Uni
versity. Porassala has passed the matri
culation examination of Madras Univer
sity and wishes to obtain an A. 15. degree
in educational lines. A letter recently
came from China, seeking information as
to courses of study.
Having graduated from the Ashland
high school, a young, man now engaged
in herding sheep for a living, is still am
bitious for a collegiate education and'
writes a lengthy letter to the extension
department, asking for full particulars on
courses of study.
A letter was recently received from n
New Zealand woman who is lecturing
with the Ellison-White chautanqua com
pany in this country in a group of New
Zealand entertainers. Thus engaged in
supporting her fatherless children, she is
planning to enter the University between
circuit seasons.
Although no figures have been com
piled upon the large number of persons
throughout the country occupying their
spare time with extension courses, the
largest percentage of them, it is held,
are teachers working to secure credits in
normal school work, now so universally
required throughout the country.
