Students Comment On Course Survey ICditor’s Note: This is the sec ond in a series of three articles on the ASUO's course evaluation booklet. The final article will deal with faculty refactions. By JKAN SNIDKR Kmrruld SUIT Writer Glen liolderrced, a graduate student from Montana, remarked, “The faculty evaluation system should be universal. They grade us universally." Students were given the chance last spring to evaluate the qual ity of the teaching which they receive at the University. This fall, sales of the booklet compiled from the data of those evaluations have reached 2,070 copies. Although faculty evaluation does not seem to be the most talked-ahout subject on campus this fall, students do have some definite ideas on the usefulness or failure of this experiment. Be cause of the small number of cop ies printed, many students did not have a chance to use or even see the booklet. Therefore, few people found it to be of use in planning their fall class schedules. “The booklet is of little value to students in upper division courses," said Ruth Gc/.clius, a junior, “because the require ments for graduation and the 4£0 mx. lvkhqkecn'r oDONALD TODAY 7:00-9:15 — Open 6:30 — 201H Century Fo* Pfcsonts «i" , mmmmmmrnaMmmmmmBmmi CHARITON HESTON REX HARRISON C--M• Comm by 0*uV 1 tl/no clement in schedule pro gramming do not allow for choos ing the instructor.” However, she noted that "the booklet should he valuable to freshmen and sophomores. Most students interviewed felt that a more honest evaluation could be given after the termina tion of the course. However, since the grade received in the course would obviously prejudice most students, it was almost unani mously fult that the evaluations must be made before the students received their grades. Linda Johnson, a junior, sug gested that a sequence course should be rated only during the third term because instructors often change style and procedure during the course. The space for personal com ment was appreciated by another junior, Joyce Horton. “The choic es offered after the questions were not always exactly how I felt,” she commented, “so I was forced to choose the one closest to my opinion. However, if each question allowed for comment, then each student would be able to clarify his opinion.” Today's Events 8:00— Reglfttration—Ballroom Orcgani Saleh -I>obby, 2nd FI. 9:00 Y.li.

VAN HEUSEN' younger by design In First SU Board Meeting Rugby Reception Set The University community and the general public will have a chance to meet the Oregon rugby team, who recently returned from a 10-game tour of Europe, at a public reception from 3 to 5 p.m. October 9, in the Student Union. The reception, to be held by the SU Board, will honor the players from both the University and Oregon State University. Tro phies from the tour will be on display, and slides will be shown. The team won three games, tied two, and lost five. In other action of its first meet ing of this academic year, the SU Board decided to interview peti tioners for the recreation council and for the chairmanships of the personnel, talent, and movie com-j mittces next Wednesday. Petitions are still available for interested j students. The Board approved a re-as signment of office space in the i SU, and in view of the crowded l conditions, unanimously decided to recommend to President Arthur S. Flemming that space in the SU basement, now occupied by a program of the Speech Depart ment, be allocated for more office space for programs directly con cerning students. Such space is badly needed, the Board feels. As member Ken Settlemier put it, some offices are housing so many different programs that “You can’t get in the door.” The Board also gave its per mission for a homecoming sign to be put up on the front lawn of the SU, and for the Campus Crusade for Christ to charge ad mission for a special program Oc tober 28. The Board will be host to a re gional conference of the Associ ation of College Unions to be held here October 20-22. LAST YEAR'S U.T. SEASON COUPON HOLDERS: RETAIN YOUR PRIORITY NUMBER!!
