Reactions from the deans to the proposed review period are be ing gathered by Wight Sher burne will talk to University President Arthur Flemming about the idea Final approval of the plan must come from a committee composed of the academic deans Academic Standards “I think academic standards will be raised with this three day reading and review period,” said Wight Nine reasons were given by Wight explaining why he thought the proposal should be put into effect: 1 It would allow time for thor ough review 2 Since many finals are weight ed heavily in a course, it is only fair that students have time to prepare for them 3. With no papers or exams to do there would lx- more time to review with less cramming 4 With the extra time, profes sors would be able to write fair exams that would test a student's knowledge, and they would have CAMPUS BRIEFS H‘n*» B'fith Hill*) Foundation will join with Temple Bet** !%rar! m the observance of Sukko* The Feast of Tabmuclw which |»r|(ti > VVfdnrMb- evening.

There would he an equal ity of chance for students carry ini' heavy loads to have time to i study for finals, fi Students would not have to stay up long nights studying and could get their necessary sleep 7 It would allow time for stu dents who like to go beyond a course’s minimum requirements to do more, and would also allow more time to prepare for tests. 8. Some students need extra time to catch up and review after term papers and the term’s read ings. 8 hack of preparation is the major downfall of people who fail exams or get low grades. With this period of time, stu dents could better prepare them selves.
