six hours until I go home, I
might have forgotten about it."
"And there's not just the in-

interjects, "but between us and
both our groups of post-
doctoral fellows and then their
interaction with each other, too.
They're getting broader edu-
cations in science and will be
better scientists as a result of
having been in a lab where a
variety of things are going on."

people who had the need to
work half-time might not get
together," adds Ethel. "In that
case, they might not share on
an alternative basis, but work
simultaneously. It also has real
advantages for the University
department. in these days the
departments don't have very
much money to hire new faculty.
Suppose there are two new areas
in the sciences that they '-ight,
want to represent in their de-
oartment and they have only,
one faculty position. They might
be able to hire two half-time
people, one in each of those
areas. I've heard this kind of
thing suggested by Vice-Presi-
dent (Frank) Rhodes as a sort
of direction that the University
is going to have to look to in a
long range future with tight
money.
"But I think it might be hard-
er to sell that to the University
because the University tradi-
tionally has been kind of su-
spicious of part-time employes,
in particular part-time faculty,

UNITED STATES READING LAB
OFFERS SPEED READING COURSE
AT THE UNIVERSITY OF MICHIGAN

e

is

h

United States Reading Lab will
offer, a 4 week course in speed
reading to a limited number of
qualified people at U-M.
This recently developed method
of instruction is the most innovative
and effective program available in
the United States.
Not only does this famous course
.reduce your time in the classroom to
just one class per week for 4 short
weeks but it also includes an ad-
vanced speed reading course on
cassette tape so that you can con-
tinue to improve for the rest of your
life. In just 4 weeks the average
student should be reading 4-5 times
faster. In a few months some stu-
dents are r e a d i n g 20-30 times
faster attaining s p e e d s that ap-
proach 6000 words per minute. In
rare instances s p e e d-s of up to
13,000 wpm have been documented.
Our average graduate student
should read 7-10 times faster upon
completion of the c o u r s e with
marked improvement in comprehen-
sion and concentration.
For those who would like addi-
tional information, a series of free,
one hour, orientation lectures have
been scheduled. At these free lec-
tures the course will be explained
in complete detail, including'class-
room procedures, instruction meth-
ods, class schedule and a special 1
time only introductory tuition that
is less than one-half the cost of
similar courses. You m us t attend
any of the free meetings for infor-
mation about U-M classes.
These orientations are open to

4 short weeks you can read 7 to 10
times f a s t e r, concentrate better
and comprehend more,
If you are a student who would
like to make A's instead of B's or
C's or if you are a business person
who wants to stay abreast of
today's everchanging accelerating
world then this course is an abso-
lute necessity.
These free special one-hour lec-
tures will be held at the following
times and places.
