senger;"

Regulations
By Extensioi
The regulations governing
given -by the extension divisioi
nounced this week by W. H. 1
No course is prepared or off
except on request .and approve
tension division, Ward said.
All work for college credit is
to be given by regular faculty
members through the extension
division, and no courses are given
for credit in correspondence r
which are not given in residence
at the university.
Courses offered by correspond
ence are open to all qualified stu
dents, and a student in attendance
at any educational institution is
disqualified as a correspondence ~
student, unless he has the ap- t
proval of the proper official of s
that institution.
Students who enroll for courses
during summer vacation must c
complete the courses at least ten i
dlays prior to the first date of fall i
registration, he declared. t
"Students who take correspond- a
ence courses and meet all require- h
ments are given the same amount
:f credit as they would receive for a
similar courses conducted in resi- s
dence," Ward said. Such credit s
will be accepted by the Univer- s
;ity at par to the extent of one- u
fourth of the number of hours re- s
,uired for a degree. r
No credits received through r
!orrespondence count toward the a
Master's degree.

Alumni Members d
Paid Up For Year
Near 1000 Mark
Ralph Lewis, executive secre
ary of the university Alumni as
-ociation, sqid Tuesday that' the
mrollment of paid-up members in n
:he .association for the 1947-48 t
~ear is already 927. On the same
lay last year, Mr. Lewis points
>ut, .only 268 members were en
-olled.
"The goal we -have set is to
tave 2000 members enrolled by /
rune 30, 1948," Lewis said. "This
vould surpass the record 1944
15 enrollment of 1682." He sees a
rood probability of reaching that t
;umber. o
"It's surprising," Lewis said, t
'that we should be working so 1l
iard to get 2000 alumni into the p
tssociation when there are in our
'iles the names and addresses of n
nore than 12,000 former students t
Lt the university."
He explained that many more (
clumni took advantage of the
ervices offered by the association
han the paying members. The as
ociation maintains files on every U
tude'nt at the university, and pro- L
,ides a contact office for all of r
hem whether they belong actively
o the association or not..
The basic fee for members of
the Alumni Association is $3
year. This entitles the member
o participate in all the activities
>f the association and pays their
subscriptions to the bi-monthly
Alumni News magazine.
