Academic Calendar

ITHACA, N.Y.--Cornell officials are considering a revision in the academic calendar that would place fall semester exams after winter intersession, Provost W. Keith Kennedy said recently.

Kennedy said the proposal would not take place before 1983-84, and it is only one of several plans the administration is examining in an effort to resolve "enormous dissatisfaction among the Cornell community" with the present calendar. The Cornell Daily Sun reported last week.

Plans for major revisions are "extremely tentative" and would not be implemented without discussion by Cornell faculty members and students, Kennedy added. Cornell and many other schools switched to pre-Christmas finals about ten years ago.
