No Visitation
For Summer
The Florida Board of Education
last week cancelled the Board of
Regents university visitation plan
and instituted a "no visitiation"
policy for the summer quarter. The
Regents plan was considered
"unworkable," and the university
presidents were unable to agree on
the plan.
All visitation will take place in
residence hall lounges for the
summer quarter.
Education Commissioner Floyd
Christian expressed confidence that
the visitation situation could be
worked out during the summer.
The Board will meet over the
summer to come up with a
visitation procedure by fall quarter.

requirements under the new law are

recognized by the U.S. Office of
Education or the State Board of
Education, courses provided by
employers or labor unions solely
for their employes, colleges offering
avocational or recreational
instruction, and colleges whose
credits are accepted by at least
three accredited institutions of
higher learning.
Membership of the board will be
five educators from private junior
colleges, colleges or universities;
two educators from public junior
colleges, colleges or universities;
and two lay citizens. Members will
be appointed by the governor and

EARLY MORNING traffic jams on Florida Tech Blvd. have caused
many students to be late to class. To alleviate the situation the State
Road Department recently installed these traffic lights at the
intersection of Fla. Tech Blvd. and Goldenrod Road (SR 15A). Lights
have also been installed at the intersection of Fla. Tech Blvd. and
Semoran Blvd. (SR 436).
Grad Degrees Offered
In Psvcholoay, Com.
Fifteen to 20 graduate students will be admitted to FTU's newly
approved Master's degree programs in communication and industrial
psychology this fall.
Expansions to accommodate the new programs, which were approved
by the Florida Board of Regents at 	
year    involves
a  June   7   meeting  in Miami, will
include  additions  to both faculty
and curriculum.
According to Dean Bernard C.
Kissel, College of Social Sciencesj
21 applications are already on file
and more are expected. "We will,
however," said Kissel, "restrict the
two programs to only 15 or 20
students for the first year. I don't
believe in playing the numbers
game. Quality is of primary
importance and numbers will have
to take care of themselves."
Requirements for consideration
for admittance to the programs
include an overall 3.0 average and a
score of 1,000 on the Graduate
Record Exam. Applications for the
two programs are still being
accepted.
Kissel said that Dr. Cabot Jaffee,
"who is said to be one of the
countries foremost authorities on
industrial psychology," has been
acquired by the university to begin
teaching full time this fall. Jaffee is
presently teaching one course while
making preparations for the
Master's program.
Also Dr. Fred Fedler, journalism,
has been hired to fill one of the
many vacancies in the
communication department.
"There will be several more
additions to the faculty," said
Kissel, "both to fill existing
vacancies and to lighten any
additional load caused by the new
programs."
Additional curricula, principally
600 level courses, are necessary to
fully implement the programs. "We
should have final approval by the
BOR Curriculum Committee within
the month," said Kissel. "The
complete curricula will be
announced after that time."
The Master's program in
industrial psychology, according to
Kissel, requires 60 hours of course
work intended to be completec'
over a two-year period. The first
year   is   primarily  study  in  theory
and    the    second
practical field work.
The communication program
requires 45 hours and "ideally
could be completed in one year,"
explained Kissel. "It will involve
general study in communication
theory and practice and may be
entered by journalism,
radio-television, speech or general
communication majors."
Kissel predicted a gradual future
expansion of the programs to keep
pace with increased applications
but added, "the quality of
education in the programs will
always be our first concern."
The House went along with the
Senate in passing a bill creating a
student loan program, adding
Both the Sentate and the House $500,000 in general revenue to the
