WOODSON Two new courses, basic and ad vanced photography, have been approved as University curricula, Dean F. W. Bradley, chairman of the committee on curricula and new courses, stated last week. However, tVe expenditures neces sary to equip a complete photo graphic laboratory are yet to be approved, as the formal request will not reach President Smith until after the University Council meets Novembei 20th. The new courses were requested by the School of Journalism, pri marily for students of that school, but it is understood that other students may take the course, with the consent of the dean concerned. The School of Journalism's re quest to Dean Bradley's curricula committee was paralleled with a student petition bearing 60 signa tures. The University School of Journalism is one of the few in the country not offering a photo graphic course. Still in the formative stages, the courses, if approved by the president, will include: proper pro cedure of taking pictures (use of press type cameras), processing of negatives, developing of contact prints and enlargements, elemen tary chemistry of photography, portraiture, copying, speed photo graphy, flashlight photography, and composition. The basic course will be re quired as a prerequisite to the ad vanced unless the student has had sufficient previous photographic experience. Being three-credit courses, each will consist of one lecture hour and two two-hour labs per week and will be one semester courses. A laboratory fee will i required, covering cost of materials used.
