STUDENT WORK GOES
ON WITHOUT CLASSES
State College Officials Adopt Novel
fer Regular students

An innovation in educational work
at the State College was inaugurated
Tuesday of this week, when the big
institution, which has been idle for
three weeks on account of the influ-
en2a epidemic, resumed its. class
work for the regular college students
by the correspondence method. This
plan was decided upon by college
heads to enable the regular students
to keep up their class work without
raising the class quarantine until the
influenza epidemic has been COM
pletely routed
Under the correspondence plan all
students who are in Pullman who
are not members of the S. A. I. C.,
are given daily assignments of work
by their instructors, while those stu
dents who have left Pullman since
the quarantine became effective may
secure assignments by writing to the
college.
The campus quarantine remains
effective throughout the week and
the students who take advantage of
the new plan Will not be admitted to
the college grounds or buildings.
The correspondence method of
keeping up the class work is adopted
in the hope that very soon it will
be possible to lift the quarantine and
hold regular classes, and, as per-
fected, is for the present week only.
The plan does not include the S. A.
7. c. students, who are under mil
itary supervision.
The correspondence" method of
continuing class work during the re-
mainder Of the period of the influ-
enza quarantine is meeting with
popular favor at the hands of the To-
cal students. Many regular students
who left for their homes with the
cessation of active class work have
written to the registrar for the as
siguments and these will be mailed
TO the applicants.
Assignments for practically every
course offered by the college we're.
prepared by the instructors and these
were printed and handed to the stu
dents Monday afternoon at the music
conservatory, Pretty stiff home
course seemed to be the popular
remark Of the students receiving the
assignments but all voiced their
hearty approval of the emergency
innovation and returned to their
homes to teach themselves"
The students are required to COM
plete the work daily. according to as
signments, and to work independent
ly. The value Of the work accom-
plished will be determined not ony
by the required written exercises
but by tests to be given when classes
reconVene Each days work must
be deposited in departmental boxes
on the porch of the music conserva-
tory between 400 and 500 p. m.
daily, and in the case of sorority or
boarding houses one representative,
from the house is to bring the papers
for all the students residing there.

large assemblage of students at the
