...program's two-year trial period. Upon securing permission from the graduate deans of both institutions these "traveling scholars" will have access to needed facilities at no increased cost. In fact, if they wish to transfer for a whole semester (the longest allowable span), they may pay whichever tuition is lower. Thus, an Illinois student may pay his University's tuition if he wishes to travel to more expensive Michigan, but he may pay the less expensive Indiana tuition if he chooses to go there...
...students hard-pressed by mounting expenses (watch for a possible tuition rise in 1964-65) Dudley offers 103 low-cost residencies. Sixteen men live on the fifth floor of Apley Court (16 Holyoke St.) at $185 per term; 44 men save $450 to $500 a year living in the co-operatives at 3 Sacramento St. and 1705 Mass. Ave.; and 43 men live in four entries of Wigglesworth Hall (H-K) and are relieved from paying the full board charge as are the residents of Apley Court...
...graduation from an accredited high school in the state. Students who stood in the lowest quarter of their classes were received on probation, but admitted, nonetheless.

However, the lack of selectivity which is decreed by the State imposes a serious burden on the University. Each year hundreds of students with infinitesimal academic capabilities must be admitted, housed, fed and seated in classrooms. And, unless standards are to be thoroughly profaned, after a semester or two they must be flunked out. The proponents of this trial-by-fire...
...Monday night in the Sunday school room of a Los Angeles church, 19 children looked at pictures of snakes and toads-symbols not of sin but of science. The mostly Negro and Japanese kids, who had already put in a full school day, were starting a six-week course (tuition: $6) in "The Exciting World of Plants and Animals." For 75 minutes, they tackled all kinds of questions: What is a reptile? What does "coldblooded" mean? Flaunting new words from habitat to hibernate, the kids-second, third and fourth graders -will soon take up mammals, vertebrates, soil and plant propagation...
