To the Editors of the CRIMSON:

This letter is written in regard to an article entitled, "HUC's Proposal Coolly Received" which appeared in the CRIMSON on Friday, January 7, 1966. In discussing Dean Monro's reaction to the program you write: "Very few people, he observed, now take advantage of the University's junior-year-abroad program, which he described as liberal." Though I am not particularly in favor of the sophomore exchange idea, the CRIMSON reported the plan as involving full credit for courses taken at other universities. As far as I know it is practically impossible to get credit for junior-year-abroad programs (in effect, you're taking a year off) unless you are majoring in a language. Is it any wonder very few people take advantage of the program when all other fields of concentration are excluded? Did Dean Monro describe the junior-year-abroad program for credit as "liberal," or are your readers supposed to assume the "liberal" program does not give credit or did someone goof? Charles R.
