Last week, however, it was announced that lab work in Chem. 20, which both concentrators and pre-meds must take, would be slashed to conform more nearly to the official description in the course catalogue. During the fall term, checks were made every half hour in Chem. 20 labs to determine just how much time each student was spending there. The survey showed a few men working for almost twice the stated requirement of approximately six hours a week, while the largest proportion of the class was working from eight to nine hours. Under the revised plan, it is expected...

The vast majority of men in the department, most of them pre-medical students, are playing for keeps, since medical schools are notoriously grade-conscious...

A prospective Biology major must resign himself to spending three and possibly four afternoons a week in the laboratories. The situation can become much worse if the concentrator has failed to space his lab courses properly, but an early start and consultation with the departmental adviser can avoid this...
