OW The Don Messer Show's Gunther Buchta Dancers were a hit in Clinton last Thursday, Grade 12 CHSS student at Waterloo this summer James G. Roy of Central Huron Secondary School, Clinton, will be among 55 grade 12 students from across Ontario who will attend Waterloo Lutheran University's summer session with the prospect of enrolling in university in the fall and bypassing grade 13. The university pioneered the program ' in 1966 as an experiment during what Henry H. Dueck, university registrar, called "a transition period" for grade 13 in the province. Several. other universities have followed suit. Mr. Dueck said the program allows mature high school students to taste university life during the six-week summer session, beginning this year on June 30, then decide whether to return to high school or begin first year university. Waterloo Lutheran offers free tuition summer session scholarships to a selected number of grade. 12 students each year. Those receiving a B average in their summer work are offered admission to the university and those with an A average receive a first-year tuition scholarship. Some students return to grade 13 but the majority decide that after an exposure to university life, they would like an opportunity to try it full-time.

Most of them from the first group are doing well and three graduated at the recent spring convocation. The majority, who are in four-year honor programs, will not graduate until next year. Of the 70 students on campus who came from Grade 12, 23 received an A average in their work last year, 42 received either a B or B plus average, four slipped to a C average and one to a D. "These figures show, rather conclusively, that the grade 12 students who decided to accept the opportunity to enter university have done far better than average," Dr. Neale Tayler, dean of arts and science, said. "Sixty-five out of the 70 are either B or A students, an extremely high percentage, but it must be remembered that they were also A students in grade 12." Dr.••Tayler said the program will continue since it has shown there. are mature grade 12. students in the province who can benefit from the opportunity. ....interest on five year Victoria and Grey Guaranteed Investment Certificates.
