Energy class slated Energy Crunch, Fact or Fancy, a provocative look at the world's energy prospects, will be offered winter quarter at Southern Utah State College. Registration for the evening school class will be held Jan. 5 in the SDUSC Administration Building from 8:30 a.m. to 3 p.m. Taught Tuesdays from 6:30 to 9 p.m., the course is available for three biology credits or on a non-credit basis. Class instructor Russell D. Anderson, professor of zoology at SUSC, indicated that students will take an academic approach to the energy problem, "a look at facts and figures dealing with the world's energy resources, where we are, where we've been and what the' future may bring." "There are two and only two sources of power in the world. Products of solar energy and nuclear power," he said. "Oil and coal are products of photosynthesis, products of solar power." Anderson recently attended a Chautauqua Short Course entitled "Solar Radiation as it Affects Photosynthesis." Sponsored by the National Science1 Foundation, the conference con-ference was held at the University of Utah "The coal and oil we use now was produced some 150 to 300 million years ago when the earth's climate was predominently tropical or subtropical. Now the climate is dryer and we don't have the productivity produc-tivity we once had, he said. Schedules with additional ad-ditional information about the energy course and the 39 other evening school and extended day classes being offered winter quarter are available at the registrar's office. The office will be open through Dec. 23 then again Jan. 2 prior to new student registration Jan. 5. |
