When they re- turn to school the following scholas- tic year, they will take a qualifying examination, and, if successful, will receive such privileges as not being required to attend classes and lec- tures. Each student will be assigned a tutor with whom he will plan an individual concentration program. The courses he chooses may or may or may not be given at the University, and, in the event of the latter possi- bility, will be entitely under the direc- tion of his tutor. The Rochester honors division, be- sides being excused from class at- tendance, will not be required to take the other schools, work in close eo- operation with tutors. University Plan Outlined Half of the work engaged in by stu- dents accepted in the University's honors plan is in regularly scheduled courses, but the other half is done in- dependently under the guidance of tutors. Weekly conferences pertain- ing to the extra-class study are held, and tutors report this work as a regu- lar course, filling in a grade for the final accomplishment. The present 'package" system of examinations is replaced by comprehensives, ad- administered at the end of the senior year in the field of concentration and allied subjects. All three schools place special em- phasis on independent reading and research under the guidance of the tutorial advisers.
