THERE was a time when colleges and universities limited their periods of instruction to the day time. The doors of the institution were locked at night, with the exception, perhaps, that the library remained open in order that students might prepare their lessons for the next day. Among the things the development of the Radio has done is to extend the periods of university instruction into the night. This extension of instruction not only permits more instructing to be done but affords unlimited enrollment in classes. Audible contact of professors with home-study students who do not have the opportunity of meeting and seeing their instructors is being stressed in the Radio programs of the University of Arkansas this year, under the direction of Dr. A. M. Harding. The programs of the University of Arkansas Station, KUOA, are arranged to furnish educational information rather than entertainment. Three Air Courses The Radio-correspondence courses have been inaugurated as an activity of the general extension service of the university. While the Radio lectures are designed to supplement correspondence courses, they may be taken with or without university credit. Three Radio-correspondence courses to date are being given as regular features under the new plan of broadcasting lectures from Station KUOA. A course in general astronomy is given by Doctor Harding, who also is professor of mathematics and astronomy as well as director of the general extension and director of the Radio station. Doctor Harding's astronomy lecture is broadcast as a regular Monday night feature at 8 o'clock. It is a course in which the question, "What's in the Sky Tonight?" is answered. The course consists of 24 weekly lectures, for which three semester hours of university credit are offered. In order that the lectures be of interest to the general public, each one of the lectures is of an elementary nature and easily understood by any one who listens in. Another course, dealing with national government, is being broadcast f-ora KUOA by H. C. Pepper, assistant professor of history and political science at the University of Arkansas. Professor Pepper is giving a Radio lecture on government each Thursday night at 7:30 o'clock for 16 weeks. Two semester hours of credit are offered upon completion of the course.
