::..:.1 c,uy of tho 1.U1i J0s in whi cl1 he wa.s enrolled in spite of e~d;r o. t u i -0ion !

The ve r y favourabl e pass ra.te is probabl y due t o one or more of the

f ol lowing fa.e t.or s :-

i . Our c las ses a.re very small , end therefore there i s more attention paicl t o the needs of the iaclividual student .

Uhen ·the ma;l;te1· of f orming a departmenta.l c on11nit-l;ee was plcc ed

before the studeirlis, they showed n o interest in it . This was, most

likely , bccaus e they fol t that they were always free ·to bring J.:. o tlw cl.epar-tment 1 s n oJ.:.icc eny ml:';tters which were of concern t o -1;:1em 2..Tld thc.t ,

as the s tv..ff and s-i;uden-ts ahmys me-(; in small groups , et least from

2 t o 4 ·Umes every week, the f orming of such a commit-l;ec c ould be superfluous .

The dep~,rtment realized -(;he importcncc, h owever, of e l e c ting a
