Teachers Advise Students to Shun Tutoring Schools

Karpovich Claims His Course Won't Be Prey For Notes Or Tutoring

Warnings against using tutoring schools were sounded in the opening meetings of several courses Wednesday and yesterday, including History 55 and English 7.

Associate Professor Michael Karpovich who gives History 55, a course on Russian history, warned his students that his course was not "prey for tutoring schools" and that it was by no means a "snap course" in which tutoring school notes could be used.

In English 7, a course on American Literature, Associate Professor Perry G. E. Miller reminded his students that last year his examinations "wreaked havoc" with those who patronized the tutoring bureaus.

French 6 indirectly cautioned students in its outline to the course not to use "summaries and mimeographed outlines."

Dean Willard L. Sperry, Chairman of the Board of Preachers, in a sermon in Memorial Church last Sunday, supported the drive against tutoring schools, by saying "a student cannot buy his way through Harvard."
