ENGLAND, Jan. 10 (Corresiondence of The Associated Press) Responding to. the stimulus imparted by the war, Cambridge University is contemplating changes which may affect the whole scheme of modern training in, English-speak ing universities and provide a broad er basis for liberal education. The first of these is designed to oring tne examination which candi datee must pass either before or af ter entering Cambridge more Into line with the requirements-of the modern world. To accomplish this it has been proposed to abolish the compulsion of candidates to study two classical languages: "Thls'ap- pes oniy to tne 'ordinary" courses, as distinguished from . the "honor" courses which latter are for,the abler . While there Is no entrance exam inatlon at Cambridge, all candidates are required to pass the so-c'alled previous examinations" in which at present Greek , and Latin are both compulsory. s It ndw has been proposed that. In stead of compelling the candidates to take two classical languages, two foreign languages should be required m me -previous j examinations") of wnicn iatln shall -be one: and that the candidate shall have th antlon of offering as his second foreign lan guage euwr ureek or French, . or uerman. u Is felt that the exist. eiice of .classical entrance scholar- snips win effectually promote the study of Greek at the university by many of the abler men. - It Is not proposed to make the "previous examinations" easier but to tfpen the avenue to a degree to those who have been educated at universities where two classical lan guages are not compulsory, . . When once the "previous" examln aflon" Is passed the "ordinary" stn- aeni usually proceeds to take ne of more special examinations. Itls suggested to Increase the number of these and generally to widen the cur riculum. New subjects may be In troduced and re-grouping will prob ably, follow. , , A committee has recently been ap pointed . "to consider the means of promoting collaboration -with the - -universities of the empire and the, foreign universities." This commit-. tee with ' its wide Influence will doubtless deal with such questions as tne interchange of professors, and what facilities can be afforded to young graduates from non-British 1 1 universities for proceeding to cost- i graduate courses and degrees. camDridge has no Rhodes schoU ars, but she has numerous students from the United States, and a wel- tome Is now being extended to the soldier-students already In Europe who cannot spend their short leaves in America. ' There are already over 3000 American University mem stn- dents and graduates, engaged in ac- i uve war work jn France, and It is expected that in a short time there may be more than 10,000. Univer sity authorities hope that next year groups; of these students will visit - Cambridge and spend a few days in its ancient colleges. It Is already known that all the colleges are will ing most cordially to cooperate la this movement and as far as hi pos- ; sible every hospitality' will he x- tended fo the .guests from across the teas.
