Arm Chair Education
This Fall education entered a brand new field. For the first time college courses were offered for credit over Chicago’s WTTW -TV.
Four credit TV courses—general biolog)', freshman English, social science, and national government—are being offered. The course credit earned by TV students is identical to that earned by a student taking the same course on the campus. Dr. Willis, superintenden of Chicargo schools, indicates that this college TV program will be expanded over a three-year period until the entire basic offering of the City Junior College will be available to the televiewer. At the end of a two-year course, students will receive a Junior College diploma.
Each of the four courses will be presented in 45 one-half sessions three days a week. Registration for credit will be open to high school graduates or any adult ?1 years of age or older.
Those who wish to benefit from the course, but not to enroll for credit, may receive the course outlines, study guide, work assignments for a nominal charge of fifty cents.
This unique Tv project w(ill " be watched with much interest.
