didn’t.

pening on this campus, to
stimulate more people to
attend concerts, Lyceum
programs and student
activities.
Due to weightier re
sponsibilities and lack of
help, Mr. Hutcheson has
not been able to put to
gether any definite pro
grams. He has recorded
interviews and concerts
that have been performed
on campus and has plans
for more. The following
have been recorded or are
in consideration for the
program: Professor Gene
Featherstone’s Plano
Concert, Mr. Russell
French’s Clarinet Con
cert, Jack O. White’s E-
manons. Miss Diane
Clendennon’s recital, Mr.
Jack Cotten’s recital, Mr.
James Fogle’s recital,
Vesper Services, a read
ing of Shakespeare by the
drama students, an Inter
view with Coach Jerry
Drake, The Days End, and
the Elon College Com
munity Orchestra. Thus
far, Mr. Hutcheson has
interviewed Prof. Sandy
Moffett about the touring
drama groups activities
In the Winter Term and
the value of the Drama
Department. A recording
of the Elon College
Choir’s presentation of
Handel’s “Messiah” has
been previously playedon

This is only the be
ginning of the program
and Mr. Hutcheson is
looking forward to a bet
ter program for the next
school term. The pro
gram is open to any sug
gestions or student parti
cipation, but the approval
of Mr. Hutcheson and the
management of WBBB is
necessary. Since the
management ofWBBBhas
not specified a time lim
it, more opportunities are
available for presentation
of student programs.
Effective Teaching
Ann Arbor, Mich. -
(I.P.)-The college has a
special obligation to see
that effective teaching is
recognized and rewarded,
according to a Univer
sity of Michigan dean.
William L. Hays, dean
of the College of Litera
ture, Science, and the
Arts, asserts in an essay
for faculty members that
in most Instances the de
partments recognize this
obligation and routinely
give teaching perform -
ance its place in the e-
valuation of the faculty
member.
“The college must in
sist that this factor re
ceive significant weight
In evaluations,” Dean
Hays says. His comments
appear in Memo to
the Faculty, a periodical
published by the Univer
sity’s Center for Re
search on Learning and
Teaching.
The Issue, devoted to
“The Administration of
Good Teaching,” also In
cludes comments from a-
nother dean, a vice presi
dent, two department
chairmen, five profes
sors, and President Rob-
ben Fleming.
How is the teaching
effectiveness of a facul
ty member judged?
“Methods for assessing
student opinion, visitation
to classes of a young
faculty member by his
more senior colleagues,
contributions to curricu
lum development within
the department, and Inno
vations leading to im
proved teaching, must be
part of the evidence,
Hays asserts.
He notes it is sonie-
thing of a cliche that lib
eral arts colleges are
dominated by their de
partments. ‘ There is no
question that In large
colleges a great respon
sibility for decision
making must devolve upon
the department chairman
and his governing body oi
faculty,’^ Hays says.
“This system is often
deplored on the grounds
that It encourages
specialization of outloo
among the liberal ar
faculty. Departments are
left open to the criticisrn
that judgments aretooo -
ten made In the cont
of the national, prote -
sional interests of a smau
group of faculty, as op
posed to the more g
eral interests of the un -
versity.
