NEW UNIVERSITY
HIGH OPENS WITH
S18 ENROLLMENT
(Continued from Page One)
under the present plan with the first
three years as Junior high,, it is ge-
pected that all grades will be includ-
ed at the end of two years. Professor
Schorlir.g expects to have 500 stud-
ents enrolled in five years. It is not
his aim, however, to push the at-
tendance record of the institution but
to let it grow gradually and pay the
utmost attention to curricular prob-
lems and the proper training of1
teachers.
The program of studies as well as
the number and the character of the
school activities will be arranged
with the idea of attaining simplicity
of student life. Chief among the
hopes of the new school is the de-I
sire to achieve greater individual in-
struction than is in vogue in the mod-
ern high school.
The school day is divided into hour
classes, from 9 to 3- o'clock, with an
hour for lunch. In addition to the
above all the students meet at 8:30
o'clock in their home rooms for a
daily assembly and physical educa-
tion work is required three times
during the week.
The new building has been out-
fitted with the best mechanical aids
possible for education and is coma
plete in every detail. Double tables
for students have been provided in
all classrooms rather than the con-
ventional arm chair arrangement.
Professor Schorling beieves that this
will distinctly aid the pupil in his
work.
In the science rooms the desks are
combination writing tables and ex-
perimental work desks combined.
This saves both time and space as the
student need have but one desk for
his laboraory and his classroom
work. The biology department also
has a,specially outfitted room, and in
addition it will have a greenhouse.
The auto mechanics shop is. a sig-
nificant unit in the Industrial Arts
shop. This is in addition to the ma-
chine and wood shops and is so con-
structed that automobiles can be
driven on to the floor for study by!
the students.<
A special boys' club room for meet-
ings of the different societies that
may be formed is also provided. This
is immediately off from the princi-
pal's office so that, he can get in
closer touch with his pupils and work
with them. In addition there is a
large reading room and study hall
extending the width of the building
where sudents can profitably spend'
vacant hours.
TE MPORARY DIRECTORY
BEING M DEBYSCIAr
In accordance wih is usual custom,
the Student Christian association has
organized a temporary directory of
all students registering at the Univer-
sity. This work is a regular part of
the program of the association and
all students coming in are immediate-
ly registered and their addresses
taken. Already there are several
thousand names on file, and the direc-
tory is available to all who desire
information of this nature.
Representatives of the association
have been meeting trains coming into
this city, and helping freshmen to get
registered and to find rooms. The as-
sociation also is conducting a special
bureau, where desirable rooms are
listed for he students, and it is urged
that those having rooms to rent
list them at this bureau, and so help
the association in this work.
In addition to a large, airy gym-
nasiun and a complete locker room,
there has been built a special recrea-
tion room, where any social events of
the school can be held. This is
roomy, although somewhat smaller
than the gym and does not have as
cold an atmosphere as the conven-
tional gymnasium.
Tuition in the new high is 36 dol-
lars per year and includes all ex-
penses. In addition to the tuition,I
pupils have 'to provide their own
books and locks for lockers. Each
student has been provided with a five-
foot coat locker in, the hall, as near
as possible to his home-room.
It is the further hope of the school
in establishing these home rooms,
that the teacher of these may be of
service in establishing a good public
spirit in the institution and a fine re-
laionship with the individual pupil.
In addition a definite, desirable cor-
relation of the work which the pupil
does in the different school subjects
is sought for.
There will be no mid-year groups
this February. It is felt by those in
charge that if the school grows grad-
ually more attention can be given to,
curriculum problems.
United States Veterans' Bureau has,
moved from its former quarters at
Lane hall to room 105 Mason hall.I
