SUMNER SCHOOL SESSION
WILL OPEN NEXT MONDAY
MANY TEACHERS WILL COME TO MOSCOW TO
REMAIN FOR THE SIX WEEKS PERIOD
Splendid Course Outlined and Announced that Work
May be Taken in All Grades Except Third
Expect Attendance of 200

The third annual summer session o
the University of Idaho will opel
next Monday, June Is and will con
tinue through for six weeks period
closing on July 25 and already there
are prospects that some 200 teachers
will be in attendance. Owing to E
misunderstanding an impression pre-
vailed that the summer school would
not give work for the first end second
grade 1t was announced today that
this was an error and that the work
would cover first and second grade
certificates as well as for state and
life diplomas, in fact the work will
cover everything except for third
grade certificates.
Feature Of Summer Session.
A feature of the university summer
session which appeals to prospective
college students or undergraduates is
the fact thaat nearly all the courses
the same college credit as would six
weeks of work during any other ses-
sion of the college year. BY this
means the ambitious student who is
willing to take several summer
courses and carry slightly heavier
work during the remainder of the
school year may complete his col
lege course in three years, a saving of
a whole year of time. Others, who
through force of circumstances, have
been unable to complete the work
emitting them to a normal number
of credits, and which would prolong
their college course beyond the usual
four years, may, by attending sum-
mer school, make up the deficient
credits and graduate with their class.
Still others who desire to broaden
their academic foundation by special
courses, but find the subject in which
they wish to specialize conflicts with
their regular schedule, may here find
an opportunity to complete in six |
weeks some one subject which usually |
occupies the time of an entire semest- |
er.
Overcome Handiscaps. :.
Many high school students find they
lack but one or two units of the
fifteen required for graduation and
entrance into college. Such students
frequently enter college as "condi-
toned" and attempt to remove these
deficiencies during their freshman
and sophomore years, an experience
which, in most cases, seriously handi-
caps them. The summer session Of
fers such a fine opportunity to make
up the entrance credits and save many
a heart-ache later on.
