Towson's Academic Climate Tops Natures Conditions The University of Miami has its warm tropical climate, the University of Maine has its brisk, cold climate, but Towson is fast becoming the college with a favorable climate for foreign observers. Last month Dr. Andreas Kou-ras came to observe college life at Towson. On Jan. 7 another visitor is coming. She is Dr. Consuelo Blanco, an educator from the Phillipines. Since her primary interest is in the elementary field, Dr. Fitzgerald and Dr. Broyles will be her hosts. Dr. Blanco will be coming to us on a Fullbright Scholarship and through the courtesy of the U. S. Office of Education. The purpose of the visit is to give her ideas in regards to the training of teachers and their cirriculum. The Phillipine educator, whose visit will extend through Jan. 24, will be staying in the girl's dormitories. This will not only make her feel more at home, but it will also give the girls an opportunity to as-sociate with someone from another country who shares their interest in the field of education. Drs. Broyles and Fitzgerald are planning a full program for the time that Miss Blanco will be here. They would appreciate it if any organization on campus that is interested in having Miss Blanco as a speaker would con-tact tirem as soon as possible. Also, they anticipate that Miss Blanco will be socially invited to some of the homes of faculty members and to various college social functions. Again, Please let either Dr. Broyles or Dr. Fitzgerald know if you would like to invite Miss Blanco to any such event. equirements The Academic Standards Committee has approved new requriements for departmental majors and/or approved pro-grams which will go into effect at the beginning of the spring 1963-64 semester. The new regulatoin requires each student to successfully complete a major or an ap-proved departmental program except for those in K-P or Elementary Education. With prior approval of the Academic Standards Committee, a student may substitute an inter-disciplinary program de-signed to meet his particular objectives. A mark of C or higher is required for credit in every major department Three Arts Offers Cash To Student The Three Arts Club of Home-land has again chosen Towson as the recipient of a $120 award to be presented to a student for excellence in imaginative writing. Manuscripts, including short stories, poetry, or the like, may be submitted to Dr. John S. Lewis by Friday, Jam 10, 1964. All work must be typed double spaced, one side only on 8% by 11 inch paper, and the appli-cant's name and post office box number must be given. Judges deciding the pre-sentation of the award will be Raymond Franke, W. Frank Guess, and Dr. Lewis, members of the English de-partment. Charles Brumley was last year's winner. Talisman will consider all entries for publication unless otherwise requested by the authors. The purpose of the contest is to encourage students in-terested in creative writing. The Three Arts Club donates the money annually to a col-lege in Maryland and Towson has been granted the dis-posal of the award for the second consecutive year. The money is to be applied towards the college expenses of the winning student course applied toward a major or minor or approved departmental program. If this standard is not at-tained, the student must repeat the course or sub-stitute another course in the field at the direction of the department. Beginning with the second semester of the 1963-64 aca-demic year (Feb. 1964), a stu-dent must attain a C or higher in each required major course. This regulation is not re-troactive. This means that a student may receive credit for a course in his major field in which he attained less than C if such a course was completed prior to Feb. 1964. However, after Feb. 1964, the above regulation applies to all students in all classes. For ex-ample, a senior majoring in Biology must attain at least a C in Biology courses required of the Biology major taken during the second semester of the 1963-64 academic year. However, this regulation applies only to required courses in the major field, (Continued on Page 8) East-West Has Scholarships For Graduates The East-West Center grad-uate scholarships � considered one of the leading grants avail-able in Asian and Pacific area and language studies � are being offered again to American students.
