Lange Announces Chester Tutorial Change in Policy
Article from the Swarthmore Phoenix published on November 20, 1962 announcing the change in Chester Tutorial policy. The information of the article was received from a meeting the previous Thursday night for the Chester Tutorial project. At the meeting, Dean Lange addressed tutors and Chester representatives and told them about the change in college policy for the program. It is mentioned that Superintendent Long of the Chester school system welcomes the program despite the fact that Chester high schools could not participate that year. In response, Dean Lange opens as many college facilities as possible to the program, including classrooms in Parrish. Dean Lange advises against tutoring in dorm rooms but does not forbid it.
Mrs. Broadhead from the Education Department offers help to the tutors, and Dean Barr announces that the Admissions Department will offer college guidance to tutees. Also, the Chester YMCA announces they will allow the project to use some of their facilities. Finally, it is announced that the bulletin board across from the bookstore was given to the tutor project for schedules and announcements.
