In Brief . . .

CURRICULUM revisions for the three-term, three-course program going into effect next fall have just about been completed by the three divisions of the faculty, and final approval by the Executive Committee of the Faculty will probably have been given by the time this issue is out. A new catalogue describing the changes is scheduled for this spring, in time to aid students in their course elections for 1958-59.

One more study has been added to a great many already in progress at the College. Undergraduate social rules are being reviewed by the Committee on Administration and the Committee on Student Residence, aided by a special student committee representing the Undergraduate Council and the Interdormitory Council. Any rule changes or new regulations will wait for next fall.

The Dartmouth Chess Club is presently engaged in a postal match with the Mendelov Chemical Institute of Moscow. The match was arranged by the International Union of Students, a Communist youth organization in Czechoslovakia. Two moves a week by cable were proposed, but the Dartmouth club didn't have that kind of money and settled for postal play, which will take longer but spare the treasury.
