Guides Students Into Courses 7 Guiding students into courses suited to their potentialities and helping instructors experiment with teaching methods are two of a .. Campus Religious Groups To Hold Panel Discussions, Talks, Suppers the important aims of the Exami- nation and Evaluation Division. Dr. Edward Furst, Chief of this department and assistant profes- sor of Psychology, explained that all freshmen entrance examina- tions are conducted by his division. Each freshman is given a gen- eral psychological exam, a coop- erative reading exam, and an Eng- lish proficiency test. English Essay Exam Students in the College of Lit- erature, Science and the Arts are required to take an English essay exam along with the others, while those enrolled in the College of Engineering take mathematics and chemistry placement tests to sup- plement their records. Cards are sent to freshmen Eng- lish instructors with the students' scores on the Belevant exams. This helps the instructor decide wheth- er the student should go into English 2 or able to take a higherj level course. \Another important function of the Evaluation and Examinations Division is "to help interested fac- ulty members improve their own exams and to conduct experiments on various teaching methods," Prof. Furst remarked. Tests High School Students The Division also tests high school students eligible for the Regents-Alumni Scholarship and serves as the local administrative center for several nation-wide test- ing programs. In the fields of dentistry, engi- neering, journalism, law, liberal arts, medicine, pharmacy, product design and nursing, Prof. Furst continued, much recent research has been carried out. "In nursing, for example, it has been found that students consis- tently show a strong interest in social services and scientific ac- tivities and a low interest in cleri- cal and computational work." 11 11 Besides Prof. Furst, staff mem- bers working on these projects in- clude Benno G. Fricke, Assistant Chief of the Division, a senior clerk, a secretary and three part- time clerical assistants. Another division of the Bureau frequently used by students in conjunction with the tests, is the Counseling Service. Mrs. Barbara Nechmann, psychologist in the de- partment, reported that students choosing a major subject or a pro- fession, or those with a problem in social adjsutment "come here for help." "We try to figure out what's causing the difficulty if students are having trouble with their sub- jects," she said. "Often it is a case of lack of ability in a special area, or there may be other factors involved." Free -Movies Ceylon, Bali and Java will be the subject' of free movies of- fered at 7:30 p.m. today in the recreation room of. the Inter- national Center. The movies are a regular Sunday night feature sponsored by the Center and the Inter- national Students Association. ;.}ti." :;:,;: w:::::::::""Ri".":y ;7}:. .,. . . ...::{v:": hiar:"7rtiv, ::,kJc:" ..v?:":ii;.{ dri:>: .: ti?:...,.:vSii+'.i :"'r."= }?7:."i ar <." f:7.::a:":'r::i"«".¢a Campus religious grotips have planned a variety of programs for their meetings tonight.
