PHELPS REPORTS GROWTH OF EXTENSION PROGRAM

In a report at the Faculty meeting yesterday, Reginald Phelps '30, Director of the University Extension Course Program, described the continued growth of the Program at Harvard.

The Program now boasts some 7300 registrations, representing about 5000 students, according to Phelps. He expects the program to expand still further next year.

The program's curriculum has expanded as rapidly as its enrollment. For example next year the Program will offer its first seminar, a study in theories of personality, which will be led by George W. Goethals '43, lecturer on Social Relations.

In addition, the Extension program will offer two new educational television courses which viewers may take for credit. A course on the Orient will be taught by Francis Rogers, professor of Romance Languages and Literatures, who is now in Asia collecting information and pictures for the course. In addition, Theodore Wood '35 of M.I.T. will give a television course on American Folklore.
