the Electrical Engineering Degartant will be held. It is imporUIOt
lh:lt nil undergraduates members or lilt department be present as it pertains to possible changes in departmtntal policy. Any outcome will be determined by the opinion of the majority. It bas been ruled that facully members be excluded at this time so that non-restrained discussion may prevail. Tbe birth of the forum is attributed to the belief that students may derive more benefit from their courses if indjvidual thinking and more creative work is present. The major points of the plan deal cbiefiy with the modjfication or polities regarding homework, lab work, and tests. In regard to the laboratory work, it is rroposed thal measures be taken whereby a student will be able to call his lab work and ret)()rts enlircly his own. The policiC!. regarding homework, too, are likely to chnnge under this new tentative plnn. lt is proposed that in addition to the regular assigned problems, there shoulc.l be given out compre· hensi\'e problems which would count heavily in the final mark. ln lhis way, the homework would clearly show Ute understanding of \he sub· ject matter by the student and his capability in solving problems which are not of the standard type. \\'helher a proctor is present or not in exams is another detail to be determined by student opinion. h is quite clear that changes and modifications must be made if such a plan is to be accepted or be a success. Co-operation is assured by the faculty in this respect. Suggestions have been made to facilitate report writing, to eliminate some or the " horse-work", and to tnable the student to get at the "rnt.ll'' of such work. Some sugg~ ~on.~ are to re-word the syllabus, to tn<cert leadin11 questions, and to have more of the actunl report writing in the lnb it5elf. The good to be derived from any ~uch system can best be summed up In the Vi<'ws that a more professionJI OUtlook will be obtained by the student, a mMr mature ouUook will pre· \'ail.' and Streater pride in per:;onal ach•evemrnt will be bad. ~lember~ in the panel wilJ con.~ist or AI H.msrn, Pete Quamo, Mike ~, E.
