l-listory. Regular attendance, lectures, and tests seem to be standard procedures for a class at Christian. But not so with Problems in American Civilization ll, a three hour course taught by Dean Jack L. Bat- terson. Its requirements are simple-a paper written on an aspect of American civilization. The class does not meet regularly, but only on a help session basis. This semester there is only one student, Marcia Miller. She describes herself as being lucky to have taken such a course in which there are no deadlines, except of course, the final paper. She feels that details fall into line much more easily when a student is able to work without pressure. Dean Batterson has this to say about the course, I think the course is of particular value to the student who has a special interest in Amer- ican history and the capacity to do independent study and research. It affords such a student a rare opportunity at the sophomore level to delve deeply into a subject of special interest to her. lt also affords the Dean, who is a fugitive from the classroom, the opportunity to continue work- ing with his subject matter and with students in the learning situation.
