under present schedule. The stu
dents use all their cuts in the
TTS classes on Saturday.
The students’s cons on the pro
posal mainly consisted of the
(juestion of whether students
would take the responsibility of
the added work. Nine students
have four classes on Tuesday and
Thursday. This does not include
the language, history, and math
classes that will be changed.
The Curriculum Committee then
presented its appraisal of the pro
posal :
