Carl Olsen Asst. Ronley Bedard Corner of 18th & Polk 343-3655 Most free universities, like the ! Free University of New York, are 1 organized outside of institutions, i Not only is the EC part of an in istitution of higher education, but i it has the support of the institu tion. Therefore, college credit is available in most seminars for those students who wish it. However, the Experimental Col i lege, itself, does not give credit l for those classes which it organ j izes. Credit Arranged Those wishing credit can ar 'range for it through several methods. The newest of these is the "77, 177, 277” series, passed by the Academic Senate last spring. Through these course numbers | in each department, a professor ' may form a new course, get the 1 department's approval, and offer ! it through the regular college catalog or through the Experi mental College. Students Develop Course Thus one person or a group of students may conceive of a course he or they wish to have offered, find a prof willing to sponsor it. and stick it in the regular catalog. Professors have co-sponsored courses with the Experimental College, and the whole class has received credit for the course. There are also many options open for students through SF State's independent study pro gram. i Last spring SF State's Academic i Senate, where students have vot ! ing power, also instituted two more possibilities tor experi | mental education. The first of these possibilities are experimental sections of multi-eection courses, which would apply, for example to the dis | cussion section of a Western Civ ' or English literature course. Teaching Departures Provided Experimental departures in the teaching of courses currently in the catalog are also provided for. Here the only requirement is that the department chairman and the school dean be kept informed and that a record be kept. There are many possibilities j for student initiation and exclu sive registration under this sys j tern. Through special arrangement with the professors, students are; also able to get credit through j regular classes. After registering in the regu lar class, the student usually makes an informal agreement with the professor that the stu dent will fulfill some specified requirements without attending or doing the work regularly in volved with that class. With this method, a student' may do outside work and receive ! credit for the course he is regis- j tered in. Statewide Exhibit Given bv Museum “Have Art, Will Travel — by land or air" might be the new slogan of the University Art Mu seum, Now in its second year of operation, the University’s pro gram of circulating exhibits is drawing enthusiastic response from all over the state. Last year about 10,000 persons viewed 24 exhibitions in 14 Oregon communities. This year, plans are to nearly double the number of exhibitions, and to use an airplane for delivery of exhib its to outlying cities, according to Dennis Gould, graduate student in painting and manager of the program. ' Formerly, many local communi ties were unable to provide art shows because they could not af ford to pay for exhibits. Last year, with the inauguration of the federally-assisted work-study pro gram at the University, a way was found. Friends of the Mu seum Association of the Univer sity Art Museum, agreed to pay expenses for the shows, and the program would be staffed by stu dents who could qualify for em ployment under work-study. Truck Delivers Art A panel truck, purchased for the museum’s circulating exhibit by the Oregon State System of Higher Education, traveled a to tal of 15/100 miles last year in order to deliver and recover art shows in communities in the western section of the state. Communities which are farther away will soon be able to have the exhibits flown in by a private air plane loaned by one of the Friends of the Museum, Gould said. The main source of the shows! is the University Museum of Art, j which also provides the over head and the experience neces- j sary for implementation of the! traveling exhibit. Three circulating exhibits have been shown to date this year, and a fourth is now in progress at Mt. Hood Community College in Gresham, titled “Recent Acquisi tion of the Haseltine Collection.” | New exhibitions which will be available to local communities the remainder of the year in clude: “Portland State College Faculty Show,” (tentative); Uni versity of Oregon Faculty,” (ten tative); “A New Look at Dante’s Inferno,” “Pacific Northwest Ar chitects;” “The Architecture of Pietro Belluschi;” “Northwest Craftsmen;” “Potters at Oregon,” (tentative); “Painting With Silk,” “Collages by Masatsugu Nagasa ka” and “Fabrics by Jane Gehr ing.” What comes next? Possibly a somewhat more ambitious out-of state program of shows and ex- i changes. “We’ve already had some requests,” Gould said.
