TUESDAY, DECEMBER 4, 1951 THE MICHIGAN DAILY PAGE FIVE TUESDAY, DECEMBER 4, 1951 PAGE FIVE Rate Faculty This Week Evaluation Plan Continues Today Today and tomorrow students in the literary college will con- tinue to rate their instructors and courses under the Student Legis- lature sponsored student-faculty evaluation program. Dean Burton D. Thuma of the literary college pointed out that it was important for students to consider the questions seriously and has cleaned up some, of the ambiguities to be found on the blanks. QUESTIONS ONE to four which deal with the difficulty of the course, clarity of course objectives, value of the text and the effect- iveness and fairness of examina- tions, are self explanatory. In question five, however, which deals with the correlation of lectures, text, lab work, quiz- zes and reading, Dean Thuma pointed out that the instructors * method of presenting the ma- terial must be taken into con- sideration. "'Some instructors use the text only to supplement their lectures r while others find the material covered in texts sufficient enough to follow it quite closely," he ex- plained. * * IN QUESTION SIX, which asks the student to rate "Regularity and adequacy of meeting class ob- ligations (eveness of assignments, return of papers, etc.) ", the dean emphasized that the type of exam given must be remembered. "Long essay type exams pre- sent a real time consuming grading problem," he explained, "and any time under a week to ten days should not be consid- ered too long." In question nine, "Open mind- edness and encouragement of dif- ferences of opinion," Dean Thuma interpreted it to mean acceptance and presentation of the views of other authorities rather than willingness to accept student's op- iniob. s . * MOST BENEFICIAL to the in- structors, who will see their rat- ings at the end of the semester, are the comments requested in question 12. Dean Thuma emphasized the importance of writing a good con- structive commentary, either fav- orable or unfavorable, on the in- structor and the course. 4- "In these comments students should explain why they have giv- en the rating they have and use concrete examples whenever pos- sible," he concluded.

Union Says Coats Stolen More than 10 overcoats havex been stolen from students in the Union this semester, police report. Union manager Frank Kuenzel said that this number is not too high in relation to past years. However, he warned students, against leaving their coats lying in the Union lobby. Many of the thefts occurred when owners left their coats on benches in the second floor lobby before dropping into the library for a few minutes. When they returned, their coats were gone. However, Kuenzel emphasized that since the Union provides free checking service on the first floor, it cannot be responsible for overcoats that people leave around the Union and don't bother to check. As yet none of the overcoats, which ranged in value from $60 to $90, have been recovered. All reported cases have been turned over to the police. Badminton Club Members of the WAA Badmin- ton Club will meet at 8 p.m. to- day in Waterman Gymnasium.

Mrs. Hatcher has expressed the hope that all who attend will feel free to wander about the house at will and make themselves at home. The house has been com- pletely redecorated, and students may want to see the changes made, she feels. * * * HOSTESSES for the tea are 30 members of the League So'ial Committee.

Daily Classifieds Bring Quick Results ONE MORE YEAR: New ROTC Contracts Require Longer Service -Daily-Al Reid KETTLE WATCHERS-Alpha Omicron Pi members are out in full force today to man kettles for the Salvation Army Christmas Bureau. Here Jeanne Freshour, '53, (left) and Charlotte Charles, '53 SM (center) gaily jingle their Christmas bells as Inez Kirouse, '55 gives her contribution. The Alpha Omicron Pi girls will also be out next Tuesday, and next Thursday. Zeta Psi fraternity has offered to man the kettles the afternoons of Dec. 18 and 20, while Trigon fraternity will help the Bureau Dec. 19. All house groups interested in manning kettles during any afternoon should call All contracts between the gov- ernment and Army ROTC cadets have been cancelled and a new one offered requiring an extra year of service in the reserve, it was announced yesterday to military classes by Colonel Charles Wie- gand, professor of military science and tactics. The contract change came about as a result of the Universal Mili- tary Training and Service portion of the Selective Service Bill passed by Congress last summer. In the UMT Act, provision was made for all 'physically fit men to serve for a total of eight years in the armed forces-two in the regular services and six in the active re- serve. IN THE announcement it was explained to all students that the new contract will be ready for signature shortly. All previous benefits found in the old one, such as deferment under theSelective Service Act, will be retained. The only change made is the extension of service by a year. Under the provision of Army Regulations, basic course stu- dents who fail to sign the new deferment agreement will be al- lowed to contimie in the ROTC program for colege credit, but will not be deferred from Selec- tive Service induction. However, advanced course stu- dents who presently have an RO- TC deferment and who are not ex- empt from Selective service in- duqtion because of previous active service in the Armed Forces will be discharg ed from the ROTC and their draft boards notified that they are no longer exempt. COLONEL WIEGAND does not expect a large scale refusal to sign the new agreement, but if such objections occur, students will not be required to refund any of the pay received from the government. Usually, when a cadet or ad- vanced student decides to drop out of training, he is forced to refund all money received from the gov- ernment, Col. Wiegand explained. A contract change similar to the one given to Army ROTC students is expected to be instituted by the Air Force ROTC shortly, although no official word has been received by AFROTC officials here.
