J Page 2 The Register February 3, 1967 WHAT DO YOU USUALLY DO Hours Questionable AT REGISTRATION? (j ALWAYS BREAK-DOW^? The upcoming spring semester will mean many different things to many different people; but it will mean a selection of classes for all students. This brings to mind a matter which some­ one should give some concentrated thought, and that matter is student class loads at A&T College. Often it is the case that A&T differs from the majority of colleges, and many students fail to realize this until their applications to graduate are rejected. There appear to be many inconsistencies in graduation require­ ments; and, as each new year begins, requirements are created or destroyed causing confusion for students and others alike. The number of semester hours that a student decides to carry should be based on his ability and on his past experience. In order to decide what a heavy class load is, perhaps one should first consider what constitutes an average load. At many universities and colleges throughout the nation, between 13 and 16 semester hours are considered an average class load. Any more than these would be considered a heavy class schedule, and usually a student must obtain special permission to take more than 16 semester hours. Some universities have been noted to go as far as charging students extra fees for all classes over 18 semester hours, in an effort to prevent students from carry­ ing excessive class loads. Generally speaking, if a student is carrying between 13 and 16 semester hours, he is carrying an average class load; if he is carry­ ing more than 18, he is definitely carrying a heavy class load. The next under consideration is the factors that bear upon the number of class hours a student decides to take. First and foremost, he keeps his eye on graduation day. In order to graduate from A&T in the usual four-year span, one must com­ sfe^rvveC ^XW&SIVAA/S— plete a certain number of semester hours set by the college. In the college catalogue it is recommended that a certain number of February 1 Marks Seventh Anniversary Of Sit - Ins semester hours for each semester be carried by students in order to complete the required number of semester hours for graduation.
