Also the opportunity arose for clubs on campus to sponsor activities which would make money for their individual organization."

CLASSES CHANGED

English 'modules' established Fulfilling the English I and English 2 requirement will be accomplished in a new system of classes beginning next semester. The new system for English 1 and 2 is one which divides the semester into two e ight week "modules." There will be no more regular, semester-length English 1 and 2 courses, but instead eight week cou rs es, or modules. The eight week module will count for 1 1/2 units instead of 3. The student can take any combination of these modules for his freshman English requirements. He can take a different instructor for eac h of his modules or the same one for all. The new system contrasts to the old by providing the student with a much greater choice of s ubject matter in freshman English, as well as the opportunity to choose a special interest. The old, general ''English Composition'' or "Introduction to Literature" courses have been replaced with modules having specific topics of study, like "Modern Magazine Prose" or "Science Fiction." With this new system instead oftaking a 16 week semester course which counts for 3 units, the student takes two modules which count for 1 1/2 units each and which last eight weeks each. If a student needs 6 units of freshman English, he will need to take a total of
