Dr. Stephen H1. Ackerman, di rector of the program, stated that there are approximately 90 stu dents taking part in honors studies. About two-thirds are members of the present freshman class. The remaining one-third are students who have returned for the sopho more year. When the iiors Program con menced last year, the total numniber of participante was 39. The four-year Honors Program offers courses for freshmen and sophomores in English, political s c i e n c e, philosophy, chemistry, biology, history, and physics. In addition to arts and science students, majors in engineering and journalism are also enrolled in the program. During the first two years the honors studentts attenid special classes in the basic courses. Profetsors fw the courses are outstanding in their field and havt expressed a particular iunter est in well-qualifiec students. The presentation of challenging material and small classes are em phasized. The basis for acceptance in the Honors Program is on c o II e g e Offered boards for use in considering de ferment of s t u d c n t registrants I from military service. The scores will not be the only determining factor to ascertain eligibility for student deferment but will be considered with other information by the local boards in determining whether to defer in dividual registrants for further study. 4ILY MOOA mer. anging with it.
