Ten THE MICHIGAN DAILY Saturday, May 17, 1975 ._ 'U' Regents approve GRC proposals by 6-2 margin C cA elt evice (Continued from Pafge 1 ments encourage students to. undertake a course or a term of independent study. "I would have preferred a requirement, in all appropriate departments, that would have called for 3-6 hours of indepen- dent study in the junior year, and up to 15 hours in the sen- ior year," said Brown. "Right now, independent study is the exception rather than the rule." Counseling procedures under the new CRC plan will not re- quire students to obtain a coun- selor's approval for course se- lection each semester. The on- ly mandatory meetings be- tween student and counselor will take place at freshperson orientation, when a distribu- tion plan is chosen, and at the declaration of a concentration program which must come be' fore the end of the second year. ARGUING that under the adopted GRC plan not all stu- dents will take the initiative to see a counselor, Regent Baker said, "the exceptional student is going to get the benefit of the majority of the counseling." Although Baker, who supported the other GRC meas- ures, justified his no-vote ex- plaining, "You can't accept on- ly part of a proposal and you only have one vote, yes or no." Reacting to Baker's com- plaints, Associate Dean of Aca- d e m i c Counseling Marion This.Ptet $2.50 ". COLUMBIA RECORD'S Diana .Ada eflvitz Jackson said, "If I didn't be- lieve that the new system would allow for personal and sensitive gounseling for a range of stu- dents I would have had real trouble supporting the GRC re- vision." J A C K S O N explained that the time which was formerly spent on course card signing can, under the new structure, be devoted to more significant exchanges, geared more to- ward students'needs. "What the Regents (Baker and Brown) were probably con- cerned about - and they had a legitimate concern -is that vehicles of regular student- faculty contact not be under- mined," Jackson said. "I have enough confidence in the student body in that they will welcome our resources . . . the intent is to increase and im- prove student - counselor rela- tionships," she added. ADMINISTRATORS received the news of the pack- age passage with excitement. Coordinator of Academic Af- fairs John Meeker gleefully de- clared, "We were very glad that they took it as a whole because all of the proposals are closely related, and taking the revi- sions piecemealy would have proven detrimental to the pur- pose of the report" Plans for implementation of the revisions will be taken up immediately by the University Curriculum Committee, Execu- tive Committee and Administra- tive Board in consultation with Acting Dean Billy Frye. According to Charles Mor- ris, all of the revisions to the Faculty Code are simply await- ing implementation dates as no ENROLL NOW FOR SEPTEMBER LEWIS UNIVERSITY'S COLLEGE OF LAW 0 Applicants are indvidually rdviewed with a 4-week Pre-Law 500 learning/test LSAT alternatives. 4 Inter-disciplinary curriculum-challengng track" programs - begin the first year * The Lewis approach to legal education guides you to your future as a competent, humanistic attorney. * Our128-acre suburban. campus offers a unique learning environment, close-by a major metropolitan area INTERVIEWS AVAILABLE MAY 1 AT S.M.U.

"VIRTUALLY allof the changes could be imple- mented by September 1st," Morris speculated. However, he cautioned against i m - mediately putting certain pro- visions Into effect such as the new rule limiting the number of transferable credits to /60 as opposed to the present 75-hour maximum. "We ought to give a year for the word to get out to all of the various outside institutions," he reasoned. Regarding the impact of grad- ing revisions upon this year's Spring and Summer-term stu- dents, Morris said, "It would be unwise to change the grad- ing system in the middle of the semester," pointing out that some courses which begin in May contitue until August. THE NEW grading system will include the addition of pluses and minuses to the cur- rent grading system, and an increased flexibility in the pass- fail option to include up to one quarter of the student's total credit hours. "I would assume that any student entering the University prior to the effective date of the changes may choose to ad- here to the old requirements," Morris said. "But it is not likely that anyone will want the more stringent old policies," he add- ed. "If you fill the old require- ments, you fill the new ones." IN OTHER business yester- day, the Regents approved sev- eral key appointments, most notably Dr. Ara Paul to the Deanship of the College of Pharmacy (see related story, page 3). The Board also approved three new departmental chair- manships: Prof. Roy Rappa- port, department of anthropol- ogy; Prof. Allen Shields, mathe- matics department.
