The Huron Expositor, 1972-10-05, Page 12from counting the bricks in the school to pushing a car around the parking lot. Classes were dismissed Fri.,. afternoon, for a program devised to , officially, welcome the new students. The senior students, organized an interesting and well run program for the event. There were- many envious glances at the luCky girl who got to touch a certain teacher's moustache and roars of laughter at some of the proposals of marriage. They had to feed each other pudding blindfolded, or jump off the stage With eggs in. their mouth: If you didn't co-oper- The credit system As at the•first of every new year, changes have been made, things are new or different and as with everything else, it takes , time to get used to it. This year we have more than just a few new rules or added touches but a whole new system. The Credit System, which will like- wise, require adjustment. It will take tithe before we can fully assess its drawbacks and advantages because there still will be problems to sort out and, as the saying goes, "first impressions can be dedeiving." FOr the first 'moeth of school the Guidance office has been busy and more than a little hectic. Few students haven't had some complaint Or change made and even now some can't take every- thing they want, when they want it but this can be expected.. .Each student has his or her own individual timetable and a choice of subjects they can take. Gone are" the Arts and Science or Business and Commerce 'div- isions and also the four or five year level. There are no more grades now, only levels, 1,2,3, and so on. The studenta,on the whole are happy with the setup but many had preconceived ideas about additional freedom that no system could hope to give. Starting this week, there is a rotation of classes, everyother day, which helps break the'mono- tony. It will probably take a year for all the kinks ,p5- be ironed out, .and to note-"any changes, in marks but I'm sure even now everyone has- his own idea', on the "Credit System." There was keen .competition as 4 7H members sought honours at Seaforth Fall Fair last week. A Here a calf club prepares for the judges. (Staff .
