ALBANY, NEW YORK, FRIDAY, M A > 5, 1941 Z-443 Nelson Clarifies Activity Outline For Fifth Year Professional Duties W i l l Take Grad Interest OK Campus; A l l Should Have Training A n n o u n c e m e n t of details of t h e Five-Year-Plan in last week's NEWS, by Dr. Milton G. Nelson, D e a n of the College, this week r a i s ed a storm of comment on the place of t h e fifth year s t u d e n t in e x t r a curricular activity. Although he declined to decree t h e a m o u n t of activity of the g r a d uates, Dr. Nelson said they " p r o b ably would not w a n t to p a r t i c i p a t e " in extra-class activities as they a r e now organized. A r r a n g e Year's Study Reason for his s t a t e m e n t is t h e a r r a n g e m e n t of the fifth year of study. " I t seems likely t h a t the intensively professional nature of t h e g r a d u a t e year will a u t o m a t i c a l l y divorce the student from his former interests. Class schedules for t h e g r a d u a t e s may differ from those of the rest of t h e college. O n e strong a r g u m e n t advanced in favor of the participation of graduates is their experience a n d m a turity of judgment. Extra-Class Activities Needed " T h a t Is exactly why I hope g r a d u a t e s will be ineligible for any s t u d e n t offices," Dean Nelson c o m mented. "We consider participation in extra-class activity i n v a l u able in the development of ,ie u n der-gracluate. If graduates w e n allowed to retain the offices they they held in their senior year, or to be n a m e d for new ones, they would soon supplant the underclassmen who should be getting t h a t executive a n d administrative experience, "However I do believe the g r a d u a t e class should develop e x t r a class organizations of their own. T h e most beneficial, as far a s their progress is involved, would be professional. W.' don't want to say t h a t the colorful pleasures of their college years arc over, but in the fifth year, it is time people began to t a k e a different and more professional viewpoint."
