T Scholars vs. Teachers JN AN article printed yesterday in tho Emerald, Prof. W. P. Boynton, of the department of physics and chairman of the Schedule Committee, outlines the Saturday class plan and gives some of the reasons which have influenced the committee into feeling that the plan is necessary for relief of classroom con gestion. The motion, reading as follows: “To open Saturday to the regular scheduling of classes: i. e. to adjust the present sched uling scheme so that it will be possible to arrange a 3-3 and 4-2 plan for classes, with an opening for morning laboratories,” ap pears to contain a number of angles, however, which are not at first apparent but would markedly affect campus life if the plan were placed in operation. One of the biggest objections to such a system would be the opening of morning hours for laboratory work. Laboratory periods usually are of two and three hours. It is difficult to ?ee just how the arrangement of class schedules can be arranged so that other than an almost intolerable situation would result. At present, laboratory periods generally fall during the late afternoon and no conflict with regular one hour lectures occurs. If the student has laboratory periods during the mornings of retain days, he will have to take his lectures during other morn ing's of the week, and in the afternoons. How then will he be able to obtain a free day to work? It appears that endless confusion would result and l)r. Boyn ton, himself, states, “The committee recognizes that its proposal will call for some readjustments of the. campus life, and occa sionally work real hardship.” He goes on to say that no alter natives can be seen now, which are at the same time possible, economical, ai’,1 equally acceptable. from the experience of this year, it does not seem that the present situation is as unsatisfactory as the proposed plan would be. In fact, it is entirely possible that adoption of the six day scheme will, contrary to working an improvement, onlv make matters worse. It is advocated that the plan is economical. On what basis? That this “educational plant” will give a larger interest return on the investment by utilizing it one more day out of each seven? There are only a certain number of professors. There are not enough funds available to hire more. There are few members of the faculty who would be in favor of conducting more classes a week than they do at present. There wou'd be no greater yet urn if the “plant” is used one day more a week if the total number of classes conducted was not increased. Faculty members know, which many laymen do not. that their most valuable work is accomplished outside the classroom. It is in the time given to research and study which distinguishes a scholarly faculty members in a university from those who are merely teachers. To ask that they conduct more classes each week would be, from the business standpoint, alone, a poor investment of the money which is drawn for their salaries.

Then too, there is. an other result which will be far more serious. The men who are working their way through school will be deprived of the best day upon which to work—and Oregon boasts of the number of students who are earning their own ’expenses. “My heart fills with tears every day T look upon such people, living with the devil.” It looks as though the author of these lines had been using the feature articles of some Sunday newspaper as her source of ideas.
