Three new freshman seminars will be conducted during the Spring Term, Byron Stookey, Jr. '54, Associate Director of Advanced Standing, confirmed yesterday.
The spring seminars are part of a program to offer interested freshmen an opportunity for independent work in close association with a Faculty member. Unlike those offered in the Fall Term, however, the new groups will include mostly students who are enrolled in courses taught by the seminar leaders.
Eight or ten Fine Arts students will participate in a seminar on the History of Art, led by Joachim E. Gaehede, assistant professor of Fine Arts, while about 20 will join a seminar on Romance Literature directed by Maurice Z. Shroder, instructor in French. Douglas G. Miller, assistant professor of Physics, will lead a seminar on particle interactions.
Excluding the spring program, 27 seminars were offered to freshmen in the Fall Term. All but three were to last throughout the year.
Since Dean Bundy has resigned to accept a post in the Kennedy Administration, however, the Department of Government has been looking for someone to replace him as head of the seminar on foreign policy. If no replacement is found, participants will be permitted to join other seminars.
