By JEAN ALLEN International Illustrated Neu s Writer NASHVILLE. Tenn. —Colleges and universities in United States face a drastic and fundamental readjustment to better adapt themselves to educational needs of the modern youth. Two major changes, both of them now under way. are bringing about a basic evolution in the character of secondary educational Institutions. One of these changes Is In the time pattern of the American school system. Instead of the old scheme of eight years of grammar school, four years of high school and four years of eolleae education, a new subdivision of schooling periods is being adopted. The modern educational pattern divides those 16 years of education SMa 6-4-4-2-year periods. This pattern. advocated by many forwardlooking educators, comprises six years tn g-ammar school, four years of junior high school, four years of secondary training which comprises two years of senior high plus two

This division of the ordinary college course into two two-year sections has been put Into practice by Robert Maynard Hutchins, youthful president of University of Chicago. His example was recently followed by Vanderbilt university at Nashville where Chancellor James H. Kirkland, who. at 76, has Initiated a new policy at the southern school. Next autumn Vanderbilt will launch a plan of having the final two years of college work tied up with the graduate school under a single dean, that executive to be Oliver C Carmichael, now president of Alabama college. Strei. Vocational Claims Carmichael Is expected to be In line to succeed the 75-year-old chancellor who Is known to be In favor of resigning his high place to a younger man.

it more naturally fits the need of those who quit school to work at an early age, serves those who would like some high school education but would not willingly spend 12 yea fl In the classroom; provides an opportunity for the great majority to receive a general secondary education combining advanced high school ano junior college work and. flnallv works to the advantage of the scholar who wants to specialize in his last two years of senior college study. The second major change In college education affects the curriculum which Is being modified from the old academic style of study to a new pattern which Includes courses of more direct vocational value, greater social significance and more practlCfi’ nature. Despite protests of the “old guard”, many courses which have been required subjects since the first college was founded are now being displaced by vocational courses and soc'ai subjects under the "new deal" which is bringing forth an evolution In educational methods.
