Numbering system facilitates registration by Bryan Growcock Staff Reporter The course numbering system at Weber State is more than just randomly selected numbers to aid students in registration. Courses numbered 100 through 600 vary greatly and are designed to correspond with each year in school, according to Marvin J. Peterson, director of academic records. Generally, classifications for the various course numbers are as follows: 100-199 for freshmen courses, 200-299 for sophomores, 300-399 for juniors and 400-499 for seniors. Numbers higher than 499 are for graduate programs. Those in the 500-599 range are for post-baccalaureate courses and 600-699 are for master's degree courses. The numbering system above is designed to guide students in their choice of courses, Peterson said. It is recommended that students in each class take courses that correspond numerically, but there are currently no restrictions on what students take. Students are required to receive departmental approval for some courses as indicated in the class schedule before registering. Although no restrictions exist except those for prerequisites, students are discouraged from taking classes in a higher bracket, Peterson said. "They can go on if they want, but their preparation for the courses would not be sufficient," he said. Students usually have not had sufficient training in higher level courses, and it is not wise to go on to something they can't handle too soon, he said. Some courses that are numbered in the 200's and 300's are not necessarily on a high level, but are simply more specialized. Examples of these courses would be "child psychology" and the "psychology of adolescence." Both are listed as 300 classes, but these courses would be suitable for freshmen and sophomores, according to Peterson. Internships are also included in the 400 bracket, but they do not exceed 499. There are presently two graduate programs at Weber State College: the Master of Education program and the Master of Accounting program. Entrance into these programs is achieved by passing specially-designed exams. Courses at the graduate level would be transferable to other institutions, Peterson said. Scholarships are available for those accepted in the graduate programs. Scholarships are offered then awarded by the respective departments, according to Russell D. Gorr-inge, director of school services. These scholarships are based on academic achievement and performance in each department, as well as any practical work experience they might have. Metaphor prints student works by Mikel Bowman Staff Reporter EXTRA! EXTRA! Weber State College students have their writing works published. That's the story here on the WSC campus with the Metaphor making its annual run off the press. The Metaphor is a student literary magazine that is published every spring by the English department. It is put together entirely by students with Dr. Levi S. Peterson, WSC English professor, as its advisor. The Metaphor has been on the campus for the last 10 or 12 years, according to David C. Wright, this year's editor. It is funded by the Utah Arts Council and by ASWSC funds. Each year, students can contribute their writings in any of three categories: fiction, non-fiction, poetry. The publication is composed entirely of student writings. Cash prizes are awarded to the first, second and third place winners in each category. An honorable mention is also announced in each category. This year's three first place winners were, (fiction) "Desperate Situations" by Stuart C. Knowlton, (non-fiction) "The Controlled Idealism and Quasi-orthodoxy in Alexander Pope's, 'An Essay on Man'" by David C. Wright, (poetry) "Michelangelo's Forgotten Slave" by Karrin Peterson. Registration starts Friday, June 13, at theatres everywhere. 1 ' irflllWIMIiTiriWIWiHiiUKni n ii " i ' i ill iii lllliilllHIMIIWilHlill'iiii'iMlii ' ' i n ii 1 1 f if iiiii i inn M' i A PAPER CUP Production An ALAN METTERrii RODNEY DANGERflLD "BACK TO SCHOOL" SALLY KELLERMAN BURT YOUNG KEITH GORDON ADRENNE BARBEAU ROBERT DOWNEY, JR.
