BY BOB CHAIKEN
Many St. Andrews students
and faculty, along with
Scotland County residents,
realize the ever increasing
need to join the Town and the
College into a unified com
munity. It occurs to us that
there is a great wealth of in
tellectual resources and
manual skills available in this
town that can provide inr
teresting and educational ex
periences for young and old
alike. The challenge comes in
trying to tap these resources.
Free University may be a
viable alternative!
The Free University Cour
ses at St. Andrews this fall
achieved varied degrees of
success in terms of leader
ship, shared experience and
enrollment. It is hoped that
courses offered this spring
will stimulate ever greater in
terest.
The major feature of Free U
is that anyone can start a
course about anything and
anyone can sign up for the
courses at no cost. The College
