TRIAL VISITS TO COURSES.

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

When the average student selects his courses for the following year, about all that he wants to know concerning them is whether they conform to the required plan of study and whether they have a reputation for being easy or difficult. Few go to the trouble of finding out whether their courses will interest them especially, or whether they are going to like the professor and his methods. The result is that nearly everyone is taking at least one course with which he is thoroughly dissatisfied and out of which he feels that he is getting little or no benefit.
