 EXPERIENCE COUNTS
 @These are not ordinary college courses for inexperienced students, . Professor Bakke pointed out, We ad- init to them only people holding or training for responsible position in a trade union or a business organization. Practical experience is what counts, and if a man has that we don't care ii,aw much book-learning he has" z The courses are run on a discus sion basis with a member of the Cenfer's staff guiding the discus- sion. The course on wages is direct ed by Prof. Lloyd c. Reynolds, as- sociate director of the Center and formerly an official of the War Labor Board. Dr. Neil w. Cham berIain. staff member and author of the book ssCollective Bargaining Procedures will lead the discus si0ns on the legal framework of in- dustrial relations. Dr. Joseph Shis- ter, also of the staff and formerly in charge of the labor relations program at Syracuse University, will discuss collective bargaining issues. The discussions of the na- tiOnaI economy will be led by Ernest Dale, lecturer on labor relations at Columbia University and economist for the American Management As- sOciation.
 Prominent men from unions and management throughout the United States are brought in to the classes as special speakers from time to time These speeches are open to anyone registered in any of the four courses.
 FRANK EXCHANGE
 These courses provide a place where union and management people can come together for a frank ex- change of opinions about current is- sues." Professor Bakke said. "The viewpoint of the Center is one of i'm partiality. We are not interested in converting anyone to a different point of view. We do think it is as important that both union and management peo- pie have a clear understanding of what the people on the other side of the table are thinking, and why they think that way.
 tsLast year we had about 35 labor people in the courses, and many of them told us afterwards that the things they had learned about management's thinking were of real practical use to them in their everyday work. We hope this year to have an even larger attend ance of union people from around the state.
 'Men working in the daytime should not try to take more than one, or at most two, courses" Prof. Bakke said. These courses wiM be given every year from now on. A man who completes four courses at any time in the future will receive a Certificate in Labor Studies from the Univer- sity."
