Committees Devise Courses

need, he is encouraged to do so,
Prof. William Alston of the philos-
ophy department says.
"New courses are occasionally
needed because prominent funda-
mental concepts change," he ex-
plains.
"The suggestion for the creation
of a new course usually comes
from the faculty or instructional
committees," James C. O'Neill of
the Romance language department
says.
The time necessary to prepare
a course varies depending on the
course content and the person
preparing it. Usually a professor
designing a new course has spe-
cialized in that particular field and
is able to draw from material
accumulated over a period of sev-
eral years.
"There is a good deal of pro-
fessional autonomy in carrying out
teaching responsibilities within thej
framework of the college," Robert-
son says.
"The departments assume re-
sponsibility for the planning,
teaching and grading of the teach-
ing fellows as part of the graduate
study program.
Competence Assumed
However, once a teacher has
reached the level of a full-time
instructor, he is assumed to be
competent.
"A faculty member is hired with
the expectation that he will be
teaching in his specialty. .
"It is desirable and expected that
senior members will work with
graduate students, but the college
is also committed to the principle
that senior members serve them-
selves and the college in the un-
dergraduate courses," Robertson
concludes.

dents in 1949-1950 to a predicted
180 for this year with peaks of
197 and 230 being reached in 1958-
59 and 1959-60 respectively.
Prof. Mersereau attributes the
biggest jumps in enrollment to
the effect of the Sputnik launch-
ing and the subsequent levelling
of the the fact that students
quickly learned that the language
is very difficult.
However, he says, the decline
in enrollment in the elementary
classes is more than compensated
for by the increase in the number
of students taking advanced
courses.
In addition to the languages
which have currently aroused an
urgent interest, Latin has recently
experienced a considerable jump
in enrollment. Prof. Else says un-
dergraduate enrollment in Latin
increased 187 per cent between
the years of 1955 and 1959.
