Newberry College will substi
tute the 4-1-4 calendar for its
traditional semester system be
ginning in the fall of 1969, Presi
dent A. G. D. Wiles has an
nounced.
The 4-1-4 calendar consists of
two four-month terms, fall and
spring, between which is sand
wiched a one-month “interim”
term in which each student will
take only one intensive course.
The new calendar plan was re
commended by the curriculum
committee and approved by
the faculty earlier this week, then
announced to students by Dr. Con
rad B. Park, dean of the facul
ty and curriculum committee
chairman.
A sub-committee of faculty
members has been considering
calendar and curriculum changes
since last year. In October, the
sub-committee headed by Prof.
N. Kibler Williamson spent two
weeks in the Midwest visiting
liberal arts colleges there and
examining various successful
calendar plans. The 4-1-4 re
commendation resulted.
Dr. Wiles said adoption of the
new calendar foreshadows a num
ber of important changes in the

current Newberry College cur
nculum. “These curriculum
changes are yet to be worked
out by the faculty,” he said, “but
we see some exciting possibi
lities for innovation.”
Much of the innovation, he in
dicated, is likely to center in
the one-month “interim” term.
“This period is being used in
various ways by schools now on
the 4-1-4 calendar,” Dr. Wiles
said, “but most are employing it
to greatly enrich their curricu
la, frequently by offering inten
sive, specialized courses which
simply cannot be fitted into the
traditional semester system.”
A fringe benefit, he suggested,
will be the elimination of the
short period of classes after the
Christmas holiday break, just be
fore first semester examina
tions. Under the new plan, Stu
dents will finish their first term
exams before the ChristmV
break, begin the one-month tern
in early January, and finish tb'-
second four-month term in Ma
