               to Art 140 - Basic Three-Dimensional Design and 
               Sculpture (3)
     Art 313 - Painting III (3) to Art 310 - Painting III (3)


ADDITIONS:

     The following laboratory sessions will be listed after their
     present catalog equivalents:

     Art 105 - Basic Design Laboratory (1) -- Further exploration
               of projects and Art 100 assignments.
     Art 106 - Inanimate Drawing Laboratory (1) -- Further
               exploration of projects and Art 101 assignments.
     Art 107 - Life Drawing Laboratory (1) -- Further exploration
               of projects and Art 102 assignments.
     Art 145 - Basic Three-Dimensional Design and Sculpture 
               Laboratory (1) -- Further exploration of projects
               and Art 140 assignments.


RATIONALE:
     The majority of the changes are due to mistakes in the current
     catalog.  These changes should have been made last year prior
     to the catalog printing, however, they were mistakenly
     overlooked.  The additions are being made to allow for evening
     students to major in art.

DELETE:
     Below "A Major in Art" the second paragraph, last sentence:
     "All seniors are required to take six hours (two three-hour
     terms) of Senior Seminar the term prior to their senior
     exhibition."

     Art 491  Exhibition I  (Senior Seminar) - 3
     Art 492  Exhibition II (Senior Seminar) - 3


RATIONALE:
     Last year it was the consensus of the Art Faculty to try 
     senior exhibitions as a group seminar (Exhibitions).  Before
     this year each senior worked directly with their exhibition
     advisor without group meetings.  After one semester of seminar
     (Exhibitions) it is clear that the advisory/senior on a one to
     one basis is a much more effective method of critique, etc.,
     and that group sessions serve only to cloud issues that are
     easily settled on a more personal basis.  It is for this
     reason that we wish to delete Exhibition I & II.  Seniors may
     arrange special topics with their professors to receive the
     same amount of credit as was given for Exhibitions I & II.
