Conflict Switches Test In Gov. 106 to Saturday

A conflict in scheduling has moved the Government 106 final examination up one week from Jan, 25 to Saturday. Students enrolled in the political theory course, being taught this year by Raymond Polis, visiting professor of Government, were informed of the change in a letter sent out on Jan. 6.

Since the course falls in two examination groups, students have in past years been allowed to vote for one of two test dates, Donald R. Brown, assistant professor of Government and head section man in the course, explained.

This year, said Brown, it was found that the earlier date--Jan. 19--conflicted with the Graduate Record Examination, which several seniors in the course planned to take. It was therefore decided that the exam would be given Jan. 25.

A check by the Registrar's office revealed, however, that nine of the 25 students enrolled in the course would not be able to take the test on Jan. 25 because of examination conflicts. At this point it was decided to change the date of the Graduate Record Examination and to reschedule the Gov 106 test back to Jan. 18.
