EVALUATION OV EXPERIMENTAL FOUR-DAY WEEK CLASS SCHEDULE

JANUARY THROUGH APRIL 1974 AT LAKE CITY COMMUNITY CC/LEGE

ABSTRACT

Due to the energy disturbance during the fall and winter of 1973-74Lake City Community College experimented with a four days per weekschedule of classes. A student evaluation of the four-day week wascompleted by 58 per cent of the full time students. Fifty-one per centof the total student sample preferred the four-day week and thirty percent preferred the five-day week. Forty-five per cent of the studentsreported they preferred a class period of one hour and in a related itemrating classroom activities forty-four per cent reported no differencein classroom activities when the short and longer periods were compared.A total of 58 per cent of the students reported they worked or wereon a work study program. These working students also reported theywere able to work more with a four-day week. The administrative staff(Deans, department heads, program directors and student servicespersonnel) did a narrative evaluation. Lists of advantages, dis-advantages and suggestiona were prepared from these evaluations. TheLearning Resources Center experienced a decline in services rangingfrom fifteen to forty-four per cent. An analysis of class schedulesfor variation in services, enrollment data, and grades revealed nochange that could be attributed to the four-day week. An analysis ofenergy consumption over the years 1970-1974 indicated that energywas saved but the amount contributed to the total energy saving pro-gram by the four-day week could not be reliably deteumined.

PREFACE

Due to the energy disturbance during fall and winter of 1973-76,Lake City Community College requested and received permission fromthe Florida State Department of Education to experiment with a four-day per week schedule of classes. The letter of December 5, 1973specified that permission was granted subjeot to certain conditions.The condition that is the basis of this report was:

That at the end of the term, the Collegewill transmit to the State Board of Education itsevaluation of the experiment which shall include'-as a minimum evidence on the following items:

a. The savings (if any) realized in consumptionof fuel oil, electricity, gasoline, and otherfuels including any evidence the College mayhave as to the extent to which such savings areattributable to a four-day week or are attribu.;table to a four-day week or are attributableto other energy saving measures.

b. The effect such program has had upon the pro-gress of students.

c. The effects on enrollments or services to thecommunity which are attributable to theexperimental program.

d. The effect of the program on classroom acti-vities and upon non-classroom activities.

e. A student evaluation of the program includingits effect upon employment; availability ofcounseling and faculty assistance; and any un-foreseen advantages or disadvantages of theprogram.

f. A general evaluation of the experiment by theadministrative staff of the College includingattitudes toward the program in regard toenergy conservation, an evaluation of the effectof the program upon the quality and quantity ofeducational services offered by Lake CityCommunity College, and a listing of any unanti-cipated benefits or problems brought about bythe four-day week.

These data requests seemed comprehensive enough for an eval-uation. Also, because of the time squeeze resulting from the needfor data as quickly as possible to supplement decision making thedata is mainly limited to that asked for by the State Department.

This study is unique. There are a few other colleges thatuse a four-day week but to this writer's knowledge no reportedsystematic study of results. There is no guide; nothing to takeapart and build upon. Somewhat because of this we have reportedthe data in exasperating detail.

The most serious deficiency in this study is the lack ofhistorical data. We have data that extends back five years only intwo instances (enrollment and energy consumption). With historicaldata we might have been able to arrive at a random factor in gradevariation, for example, that would have established more meaningto some grade variations.

STUDENT EVALUATION SUMMARY

METHOD

The evaluation survey started with a brainstorming session ina meeting of Student Services, counseling and activities personnel.A preliminary form and format was prepared. Input was then securedfrom a meeting of all Student Services personnel, Transfer DivisionDepartment Heads Council, Dean Herbert Attaway, W. H. Alexanderand other Technical Division personnel. With each set of sugges-tions, items were changed, combined, added, etc. The final formsused were the fourth or fifth revisions (See pages 104 and 105).

The final form was divided into two parts. The preliminarysection asked the student for items of specific information to beused in sorting the evaluation forms into major groups. The basicscale contained 10 (Form I) and 11 (Form II) items with a note askingfor special problems or comment. The number of responses, as alwayswith a Likert-type scale, was a problem. Research does not providea clear-cut decision concerning the most desirable number of responsecategories. The final decision to use only three response categorieswas made primarily to reduce the work in tabulation.

Another worrisome item was the arrangement of all "A" itemsfavoring the five-day week or critical of the four-day week; all"B" items in between; and all "C" items favoring the four-day week.There was in this arrangement the possibility that the format mightencourage stereotyped responses. This problem did not materialize.The students apparently read and responded to the individual items.

Items and responses were varied and scattered somewhat for what-ever value this might have in avoiding stereotyped responses. The

2

survey was arbitrarily held to one page to save class time in admin-istering and perhaps help in getting a greater number completed.

Differences in the time schedule and the desire to add item 11led to a slightly modified Form 11 for use in the clock-hour programs.Form 11 was used only with Technical Division clock-hour programs.All of the tabulations, however, use the Form I format. Item 11. ofForm 11 is an isolated tabulation.

Many, per haps all, of the items could be gone into in greaterdetail but this would have required almost a special project witheach. The final instrument was a compromise that seemed practical.

Most of the evaluation forms were completed by students March18 and 19, 1974. These dates were about two weeks after. the middleof the semester.

The results were tabulated and entered on a standard table asnumbers and percentages of those responding to the item. A graphwas devised to illustrate the percentage differences and ease thechore of spotting differences. The tables, however, are includedto give the "B" responses, exact numbers and number of students inthe sample. All of the tables reporting tabulations have the sameformat and all of the figures are the same format. Both the tablesand the figures include keys to the content of the item.

RESULTS

I. Responses were obtained from 548 students or 58.5 per centof the full -time enrollment.

2. Fifty-one per cent of the total sample preferred the four-dayweek and thirty per cent preferred the five-day week.

3. The Transfer Division students split 38.8 favoring the five-dayweek and 38.4 favored the four-day week.

4. The Technical Division students liked the four-day week 61per cent to 23 per cent for the total division, 54 to 28 per cent for thesemester-hour programs and 92 to 5 per cent in the clock-hour programs.

5. Students that work, both work-study and other work, preferthe four-day week. Fifty-four per cent of the combined total of workplus work-study like the four-day week. Thirty per cent preferred thefive-day week. Notes The group labeled work is work other than work-study. There is very little overlap between the two groups, i. e., veryfew work-study students that work at another job in addition to thework-study employment.

6. Two hundred forty-eight students report working other thanwork-study or 45.26 per cent of the sample.

7. Three hundred sixteen students either worked or were on awork-study program. This is a total of 57.66 per cent,of the samplethat worked for pay.

8. The pattern of preferring the four-day week continues throughthe grade-point average breakdowns except the grade-point averagerange of 3.0 and up in the Transfer Division. With this 3.0 and upgroup the five-day week was favored 43.5 per cent to 31.8 per cent.This group contains 85 students. The following data specific to thisgroup is not included elsewhere in these tabulations. Fourteen or16 per cent of these students are on work-study programs; 41 or48 per cent work other than work-study. This is a total of 64.70 percent that either work or on a N;ork-study program. Thirty-three percent of this group report they work full-time on Friday.

9. 45 percent of the students reported they preferred a class period ofone hour and in a related item rating classroom activities 4h percentreported no difference in classroom activities when the short andlonger periods wore compared.

TransferwoDiiio10. The nursing programmry x-sstuany students and Transfer

Division students with grade-point averages above 3.0 were the onlytabulations showing a marked preference for the five-day week.

11. Students that work report they are able to work more formoney on a four-day week schedule. Fifty per cent report they wereable to work more and 14 per cent were able to work less.

12. There is not much doubt about clock-hour programs. Someof these programs prefer the four-day week 100 per cent.

I3. One hundred ninety-two students (total technical and transfer)or 35 per cent of the sample report they work full-time on Friday.

14, Only 10 per cent of the students responded with a comment.All of these comments are included in the comments section.

15. Several other tabulations and arrangements of data were triedincluding such things as total A, B, and C responses, mean responses,items against all other items. etc. None of these seemed to add muchto the results.

STUDENT COMMENTS

Yee, this has bean a problem for me; because I can't gat he onFriday. No way to gat here! (Cosmetology, Tuasdoy to Friday schedule)

1.I prefer the five day week, becausn we can get more hours in andfinish sooner.

The longer the day is that much more work gets done.

No comments!

111111.11111.111M 1116M1101.000141.111.1.

why don't you OPEN THE PARKING LOT!? You built it when you don'tneed it--so open it.

tse110This survey is stupid due to the fact that anything that stu-

dents say is regarded as irrelevant and doesn't matter anyway.

When the students are regarded as people who have some rationaljudgement, and not ss high school freshman, then these questionnairescan be useful and not just a useful waste of paper.

.11.1.1.1..11.M.111 www....1.111110......11111J

I miss the school functioos and things like that because I live along way away. I like the 4-day week. I get more other things doneon the extra day off.

111.1111enjoy camping, hiking, fishing, etc., that is one of the reasons /1m

in the Forestry Program, because of the out -of- doors. This gives memore time to get outside.

,.......1. Arranging work-study hours.

97

Special problem: The 4-day week takes more of my time and I em unableto work a part-time job at night on the week days becnuen of the longerdays. It is very hard to find a job where you can work from 6 to 9 p.m,and still have time to study.

Less gen for 4-day week'

Any trouble I have encountered is due to the newness of the 4-dayweek and could be corrected without much trouble.

/ didn't enjoy having long weekends with no access to school facilitiesthat / needed for study. I did like the longer classes because youweren't as pushed to get your materials in working order and you hadtime to work end get a sufficient amount accomplished while had yourmind on it.

Although the four-day week plan is an advantage for some students, itin not so for others. Friday might be a great day for an added week.and vacation and it might meet some of the students requirements forgetting the school kinks out of their bones. But, it is no "picnic"for the rest of us. The longer hours do not make classes easier onyou. On the contrary, it makes it harder. Time is spent more ireclasses and less in the Library, where students have the thence tostudy. LRo has reported that there has been lees students in thelibrary this semester than there have been last semester. Thisbrings the study rate an all time drastic low. I am not kickingyour 4-day week plan, but would you please go tibugusomeone else?

many of my friends must stay an extra semester to take one or twocourses that were either dropped because of the 4-day week or theindividual could not fit them into their schedule because of thefour-day wnsk,

411.11.0,111.6m.

I wouldn't mind the four-day week if I had more time on my hands.-Thank you.

In the fall term of '74 I will be carrying an increased load of 19hours; in the science and math field. I feel that alour-day weakwill be nxtremnly detrimental to my grades.

98

some teachers do not prepere enough to cover a lengthy clans withinthe Four-day week. Student attentiveness, I feel, has dropped.

411/1.41111.111

Only problem is a 4-hour drafting and surveying course one day a week--should be. two 2-hour sessions. .0It seems to ma that the 1%.hour class is better for me because I getwarmed up and can get n better picture of the lesson---more underetnodt.ing. Also, more time to study.

.1111.011011.0110110MINIV

I like the 4-day week. I hope that LCCC dose not go back on the 5-dayweek.

.1.0.110.I sure spend a lot of time in class each day.

The schedule is much tougher for the forestry student. (Carriesa heavier load) Instructors had allow extra time to enable us to pre-pare ourselves for labs end lunch.

It's very tough to sit through 11311 one and one-half hour classesevery morning from 8:30 to 12:50 and get the full benefits from classlectures.

Look of otudent activity,

......11The labs are hard to attend when the schedules are packed. The activi-ties on campus, or the activities during the day I usually miss. The4-day week contributes to more night classes; therefore it would beherd to hold a job at night.

The 3-day weekends, I like; and I presume the school saves fuel.1111.one bad point about the four-day week is that a very light load ofsemester hours seems like a very heavy load. Last semester I wastaking 20 semester hours and this semester I can only munege 14.

99

well, obviously, the four-dny week in going to be tough for thosepeople like MR who hevu to carry 19 or morn hours. r do admit thatthe person who commutes or lives in the dorm and lives close to home,going home every weekend excluding the fact that some of them hew) to,carry more then 16 hours find it pleasing since they have en extraday for luisurn. out oven with a person who carries 16 hours orso finds it rough because that is a lot of material to cram into yourhead in just 4 days, especially for the people who are in generalcourses because everything is different and can get to be nerve-rack-ing with too much on your mind. / can almost bet my worth, that thegrade point average from last semester will surpass this semester'saverage by at lease 1/3 of a latter grade and even morn.

I have, heard some professors come up with ideas why you shouldcontinua the four-day week that were quite stable on their paint ofview but I have heard others talk of "damn" good stable reasons whyit should not be continued for the goad of the students, which it isreally for, isn't it?

.....................11.I've had trouble, because I've hod a lot more work to do in a lotless study time at home. (I have less time to study, because / gethome two to three hours later this semester, because of 4-day week.)Also, when I needed to see my advisor or my instructor I couldn't,because I have class almost all day and when I did have time they hada class or they ere gone. (During their office hours I had class mostof the time.) very few times would I get to talk to them.

.......m......11.........

I feel the 4-day week is academically unsound because it forces antudent to cram his studies.

0.The 4.day week has left me less time to study, fewer (no) breaksbetween classes and I'm so tired on Friday that I sleep all day. Ifeel the 4-day week is hard on students and teachers.

Class length is not the issue. Four days with class crammed to-gather is! 1111

I voted for the 4-day week in fall of 1973. After experiencingit, I vote strongly against such a plan in an educational institution.

pewees;(1) Extracurricula activities provided at LCCC for students (dorm &commuter) were few enough in the fell. In the spring with the 4-dayweek than activites are practically non-existent!! (Excluding sport-ing events)

(2) Library hours have been shortened--ot the coat of the studentswho use the facility, if the energy shortage becomes so bad thata 4 -day week is absolutely necessary, let's find something construc-tive and/or entertaining to do with the three days off.

1101.1111./.............1.1Due to the 40day week, the time blocke that my classes are in madeit impossible for me to continue my previous job. I had to findanother job and take a considerable pay cut. If I had been just aregular student, full time, I really wouldn't have minded the 4 -dayweek. But due to working full time and being married with a son, the4-day week caused considerable problems. For the overall student, I

would say the four-day week is fine.

I think the four -day week is great!

I think that since I'll be going to Florida next year that this couldcause ma some trouble in adjusting beck to a 5-day week. Also, I thinkthat if the school is saving a lot of money running for four days thatthe savings should be passed on to the student's tuition costs.

I' like the 4-day week because I have found me a job on Friday--whichassists me with my education. Let's keep the 4-day week!

I am taking business courses, which require the use of the machinesoutside of class. I have to work 15 hours weekly. After class and15 hours of work, / geriinly an hour or so a day left and there wereclasses in the Business Building using the machines. on the weekend

can't answer truthfully about being able to attend the campusfunctions, because there hasn't been much function and what littlereally wasn't to my taste.

The four-day week is lousy in that I don't have enough time foreverything. Typing, office procedures, and office machines re-quire outside work if you are planning on passing the course. Theseclan only be done in the business building, where there are type-writers, calculators, etc. And this building is locked an weekends.During the 4-day week, classes and trying to keep Mrs. Turner caughtup with her papers, (work study) takes up my time, I, also think itwas a pretty cheap trick saying we voted for it when the student bodydidn't.

The nature of my classes this semester adept well to the four-dayweek, as they are largely literature related courses. However, it donsput a hamper on thRatre as some people who would otherwise be in-volved must work during rehersal periods.

EVALUATION BY DIVISION DEANS

SUMMARY OF EVALUATION OF FOURDAY WEEK BY DEANS,PROGRAMTIRECTORS, DEPARTMENT HEADS AND STUDENT SERVICES PERSONNEL

METHOD

Division deans, program directors, department heads and studentservice pfrsonnel were asked to evaluate the four-day week. The spe-tlflc request was, "Please give me a narrative evaluation and youropinions of the four-day week. Suggestions: advantages staffattitudes; problems, solutions, impressions etc;'

Evalyations were received from 31 of the thirty- two requested.In most instances the department heads and program chairmen evaluationsrepresent:a poaling of the opinions of the people in the departmentor program. These evaluations were then gone through and advantages,disadvantage's or problems and suggestions or solutions written oncards. Duplications were sorted out and the list of major points made.This procedure will have a tendency to eliminate shades of meaningand will include only most of the items in the individual eValuations.

RESULTS

The following sections list the extracted advantages, probiemsand suggestions. It will be noted that many items listed under advan-tages arevalso listed under disadvantages or problems. These differencescome from,different people in different situations.

I ADVANTAGES1. Faculty liked the long week-end2. Students liked the long week-end.3. Energy saved.4. College open to the public longer Monday through Thursday.5. More outside work hours available for students.6. Reduction of overload of students7. Student contact better.8. Course scheduling was easier.

9. Permits additional time in activity courses to develop skills.10. Permits short courses on Friday.11. Days were long enough to get around to all SIE students.12. Four to five thirty generally free for preparation, etc.13. An extra full day for study.14. Spvis time for commuters.15. Athletic contests scheduled for Friday or a week-end less

of a problem.16. Gives self-motivating students time for off-campus activities.17. Longer periods enable better use of films, etc.18. lab use better.19. Professional meetings usually held on week ends and less of

wproblem.20. Registration and scheduling seemed easier - less time required.21. Long hours allowed for a continuity of thought and action.22. Fewer schedule changes.

107

II DISADVANTAGES OR PROBLEMS:1. Reduced student activity time (This was one of the most

frequently mentioned items.)2. Fewer students could construct schedules for a limited number

of days. (A tabulation not reported In this study supportsthis.)

3. S.G.A. has had serious difficulties in scheduling meetings.(This may be partly solved by scheduling the students con-cerned into a course SOP 111 Human Relations Leadership.)

4. Fingind student tutors with free time was difficult.5. Heavier schedule when on campus made it more difficult to

contact students.6. Administration building closed on Friday. Friday visitors

and potential students ,could not secure help.7. Boredom effecting dorm students and disruption of mall, food

and health services.8. Students unable to use learning labs and LRC due to more

classes per day.9. People not as alert the last hours of the day.O. Off-campus professional meetings held the first of the week

more of a problem.1. Two hours less work per week for some employees.2. Discussion classes with a four-day break almost impossible.3. Continuity poorer in two-day per week classes.4. Hard for work-study students to schedule work hours.5. Lab. scheduling more difficult.6. Greater stress and fatigue. (This was one of the most fre-

quently mentioned items.)7. Good students overworked.8. Class periods excessively long for lectures.9.- Any outside of class activity was difficult to schedule.

20. Skills that require more concentrated practice are moreeffectively learned in shorter periods.

21. Early and late hours dificuit to use.22. Students have a heavier class load per day.23. Security for college property was less on Friday.24. Some employees had to work a five-day week.25. Instructors had difficulty getting to off-campus classes

both classes they were taking and instructors for.26. The four-day week is not in phase with the community.27. Students do not use the extra day for study.28. Hospital time for nursing students difficult to schedule.29. Lab time cut chort,30. Less time for field trips.31. Less flexibility in programming classes.32. Trouble getting up so early in the morning.33. Seminars were hard to schedule.34. Danger in coming to work so early.35. First hour wasted - social hour.36. No personal transactions possible on work days; Stores

closed, etc.37. Night classes made excessively long hours.38. Proportionately more time in class and less for preparation.39. Less time for individual student contact.40. No time for faculty Inservice training.44. Transportation to work problems.

108

III SUGGESTIONS1. Use shorter class periods.2. Use more flexibility in hours on campus.3. Use Friday for labs.4. Use car pools for protection5. Schedule hours for conferences with students.6. Use four-day week for students and five-day week for instruc-

OFFICE OF BUSINESS SERVICESMaxine Sparkman

The majority of the employees working in this department are infavor of the four-day week. Of the twelve employed, nine are in favorof, two are not in favor of, and one is netbral.

As far as this department is concerned, the only advantages wereconservation of energy such as gasoline, fuel oil and electricity, ashorter work week, and an additional day off from work for employees.

The disadvantages found with the four-day week can be categorizedby disadvantages related to the college and those related to the employees,The disadvantages relating directly to college functions are as follows:

Due to certain buildings having to remain open, some employeeshad to remain on a five-day week. Having varied work sche-dules created payroll and leave problems for the business office.

Due to hours established for the four-day week, there were twoless work hours per week for each employee.

Due to so few employees being oncampus on Friday, there wasa minimum amount of security of college property and groundson that day. While no particular problems developed as a re-sult of this, the possibility for problems was greater.

Duo to having a compulsory Food Service plan for dormitoryresident students, the cafeteria had to remain open on Fridays.This procedure was a disadvantage to some dormitory studentsand an advantage to others.

The disadvantages relating directly to the individual employees areas follows:

(1) Several employees had baby sitter problems.

(2) One employee had a non-driving rider on a different workschedule,

(3) Some employees felt daily hours were too long for maximumproductivity.

LAKE CITY COMMUNITY COLLEGEEVALUATION OF FOUR-DAY WEEK

DEAN OF STUDENT SERVICESRaymond R. Sessions

The foUr.day week appears to have been an interesting andvaluable experiment.

The obvious conclusion is that the majority of students andfaculty liked it. The assumption'would be that this indicatesthey like It better than the five-day week. This assumption,like the conclusion, Is probably accurate. However we interpretthe results of the survey of opinions, etc., we must, I believe,recognize the considerable number of persons who , for variousreasons, prefer a system different from the majority.

If for no other reason than the need to keep enrollment up,these persons, faculty and students, must be given proper consid-eration. Fortunately, It now appears we will have a choice whereasfor a period it appeared that fuel shortages would make preferencesalmost irrelevant.

One other observation is Important, I believe, before myconclusion Is drawn. It Is that whatever persons may say aboutthe ease or discomfort of the four-day week, the record needsto show that many who expressed distaste for the change were ex-pressing, perhaps unknowingly, an opinion about "change". It

Is one thing to be on a four-day week, it is another to changeabruptly to a four-day week. The mixed up work schedules, theincreased work of designing a neu system, the accidental coinci-dentals of daylight savings time and foggy mornings all had somenegative impact on the opinions of those trying to evaluate the"four-day week". These types of things will occur in such a changeregardless of the efforts of all involved to plan ahead.

Our own President is fond of saying that "we can teach itround or flat". My feelings of the four-day week are much likethat. However, I strongly believe that the best way is neithera four-day or a five-day week. I conclude that we should givefurther study of managing this institution to the needs of thepeople we serve. "Different strokes for different folks." Someshould perhaps operate on a four-day system, some on a five-day,and some on some other arrangement. Probably the college needsto remain open long hours most of the week. It will be a "mess"In some ways to administer but that is where the future is. Mycompliments to the President, the faculty, staff and studentsfor their cooperation in this experiment.

DIVISION DEANS

TECHNICAL DIVISIONHerbert Attaway

1. Advantages of the four-day weeks

Certain students, moat Clock-hour and Semester-hour students whpmust work to go to school, appear to favor 4-day week,

b. Clock-hour teachers like the 5th day to do paper work of allkinds, etc. (This is the present 4-day student and 5-dayteacher week for Clock-hour Programs).

2. Disadvantages of the four-day week:

a. Certain semester -hour students, nurses for example, feelpressed--too much material crammed into a shorter time span.

b. Some Semester-hour teachers, other than nurses, feel thattime pressure is too great, even though a number of their stu-dents appear to like the 4-day week.

3. problems created by the four-day weeks

a. No time for inservice training, courses on how to teach or toprepare performance objectives, course syllabi, etc. in-service training did not exist in Technical Division in Springsemester 1973-74.

b. Not as much time for teacher-student counseling--students andteachers absorbed with direct class activities.

4. Estimate of staff attitude toward four-day weeks

Mixed. Most all like the day off. A goodly nuMber do not like theeducational consequences. Too much crowded into too little time.

Other items or comments

My overall view ise except for isolated programs, the 5-day week ismore productiie of educational excellence.

LAKE CITY CORHUNITY COLLEGEEVALUATION OF THS FOUR -DAY WEEK BY

DIVISION DEANS

TRANSFER DIVISIONWalter A. Parnell

The four-day week seemed to be a fairly successful experiment

for the Transfer Division. As we progressed through the term I noted

expressions of both satisfaction and discontent on the part of stu-

dents and faculty. Students and faculty were concerned that some ao-

tivities which were possible during the five-day week were made im-

possible or very difficult during the four-day week. Hkamples of such

activities area The reduced activity of use of the LRO, of the in

dividualized instruction labs, of conferences between student and

instructor, etc. Faculty members complained of the increased pressures

exerted by the four-day schedule, that is, proportionately more time

was spent in the classroom thereby reducing the amount of time avail-

able for preparation of materials and for conferences. A four-day

week does seem to quicken the pace of college life. somewhat. One

effect noted was that fewer students were able to construct schedules

with a limited number of days; for instance, previously, large numbers

of students constructed three-day schedules, relatively few could work

out a full-time load on a two-day schedule. The net effect was to re-

duce the total number of hours any one student could take on a four-

day schedule and this was evident in the fact that I signed very few

overload requests.

On the positive side many students liked the opportunity to

compress five days of instruction into four days, thus allowing addit-

113

tonal tirie to work, Many faculty mombers also apparently appreciated

the long week-ond afforded by the four-day week but some claimed that

they had ;to work additional hours on the week, end to catch up on

the work:they could not complete during the regular week. One diffi-

culty that should be noted was the necessity to more carefully

scrutinize the hours spent on campus by faculty merribers. The Lao.

ulty probably spent more time on campus, but only against their will.

It would:seem a good policy in a future experiment such as this to not

establish rigid requirements for hours on campus. For those of us

who made .a diligegt effort to be present for the full ten (10) hours

each day; it proved to be a somewhat tiring experience. I had a

night class in addition to my responsibilities during the day and this

especially proved to be a tiring experience. It is very difficult

to work until 5:30 and than meet a 6:30 evening class. One probably

psychological effect was derived from the necessity of arriving at

school at dawn and leaving at near dark. This actively cancelled

out the possibility of stopping in town to take of any kind of

business before closing hours of businesses. It was also noted that

some secretaries were apprehensive about traveling in the dark and

about entpring dark buildings in tho early morning hours.

Again;, on the positive side it seemed that the long hours

allowed fjpr a continuity of thought and action that provided the.

conditionls for somewhat increased productivity. Another difficulty

that was evident was the reduced amount of time available for nommittee.

meetings,Ispocial events, etc. It should be noted however, in regards

to special events, that those activities which wore scheduled during

114

class hours had attendance as high as "when schedule during student

activity periods.

It would seem that the four.day weok would be more successful

if: 1) shorter class periods were used, 2) faculty members and ad.

ministrators were allowed more flexibility in hours on campus, 3) labs

could be' opened on Friday, 4) personnel could be urged to use car

pools for personal protection if for no other reason, 5) a careful

schedule of hours for purposes of conferences between instructor and

student could be worked out.

1. Advantages of the four-day week: Many Forestry labs involve check -ing. out °quilt:ant and/or travel. By having fewer, longer labs wehave more useable lab time. Also, we use quite a number of filmsalong with a lecture. With the longer lecture periods, time is avail-able to discuss films the same period that they are shown.

2. Disadvantages of the four -dey week: Some people have trouble gettingup in the morning.

3. Problems created by the four-day week: Applicants quite often requesttesting and interview on Fridays. However, there has been no problemhaving these persons come in on a different week day. The interviewforms could be changed to indicate this and save correspondence,

4. Eetimate of staff attitude toward four-day week: I have talked withthe Forestry staff, and in general they feel as I do.

5. Other items or comment: I feel that a four-day week is good forthe morale of the staff. It allows time to take care of personaltasks that cannot be done on a weekend.

a. Good for self-motivating students who like more time foroff-campus activities, inoluding jobs, sports, etc.

b. Saves time and -expenses for those who commute.The extra day is desirable for personal planning andactivities for both students and staff.

2. Disadvantages of the four-day weeks

Al Less flexibility in prngramming classes.b. Less time for extra- curricular activity (g_clums).ie. Less time to counsel studentsd. Less time to plan and administer programs.

3. Problems created by the four-day week:

a. Less time for field days and student tripe.b. Sacrifice to students in total learning experience.o. Lab shortd. Accumulative drain on faculty and staff from continuous

long days.

4. Estimate of staff attitude toward four-day weeks

Not totally as favorably to students instructionally as the5-day week as it was thrust upon us in Spring term '73.

5. Other items or comment:

One of real problems of the Spring term experience was thatwe did not have any time to prepare for the new format. Thiswas a drastic change with very short notice. Very likelybetter use of the 4-day week would come with experience andtime to plan, thus offsetting some of the above disadvantages.Effective performance objectives probably would help tomake more efficient use of 4-day week.

HUMANITIES DEPARTMENTCatherine H. Sorensen

The instrustors in all the areas of the Humanities Department--HumanitiesArt-Music,. Humanities Philosophy-Religion, Art, Music, Speech-Theatre, andForeign Languages...re in agreement thaOthe disadvantages of the four-day week outweigh its advantages.

In discussions with students in classes in the department, it had beendetermined:that students in two categories in particular complain of thefour-day weeks students who maintain higher grade averages and work.study students.

Faculty members agree on the following general disadvantages: (1) Thelong class:periods on Tuesday and Thursday have been acceptable forfaculty members may normally be scheduled for two of these periods onthese days, but, with the four -day week it is necessary for facultymembers tobe scheduled for three of these classes on the same day,frequently:with two of the oliirg, back to back, with resultant depletionof the energy to the point that (.2ectiveness is Compromised;(2) StudeMts who have three, or even fou; classes on the some day (thereare five periods in a day) have the same problem of depletion of energy;(3) The early and late hours of the day before and after classes can notbe properly used because students are not available for conferences andbecause faculty members after teaching three long classes are tooexhausted to make proper use of their time.

in addition to these general disadvantages, there are specific disadvantagesevident in. special areas of department activities. The following are themost striking: (1) In classes that emphasize skills requiring concentratedpraotice, 'such as the first two semesters of foreign language or collegechoir, it is much more effective to have students for three shorter periodsa week rather than for two long periods; (2) In classes that requirelibrary research as in preparation of discussion materials for speech andforensics it is difficult for the students to find enough time or energyto use the:library as they go from one class to another with the five-period day (Human nature being what it is, the students fail to come backto the campus to use the library on Friday); (3) In classes such asmusic and theatre that require outside practice and rehearsals it is

The fog 4r members of the Mathematics Department are generally dividedconcerninahe 4-day week. Two instructors are mildly in favor and twoinetruotord are mildly opposed to it. No one is vehemently opposed orenthusiast tally for it. All members of the department have easily ad-jimeted tote 4-day week but oan just as easily readjust to the normal5-day weeki

As an instructor, I can see no educational advantage to the 4-dayweek over 5-day week. Fbr the students in a lower level math course,

tfour days a long time between class meeting (Wednesday, Monday orThursday, eectql. This was also true however with the Ihesday - 'burs-day scheduke in a 5-day week.

Anothati disadvantage of the 4-day week was the difficulty we had inobtaining *tors for the Math Lab. Most of the qualified students didnot have mifficient time to work as tutors. This resulted in fewerstudents using the Math Lab as a study area. Also, I had fewer studentsvisiting met in my office during office hours. One possible reason couldbe that the had no time between 8 and 4 and were unwilling to stay oncampus frort 4-5130.

Prim a ,aching point of view, the same amount of material was pre*sented durthg the 4-day week as was previously presented. Office hoursfrom 4 -5130; were generally free of students so the instructor had more'private's hours for grading, preparation, etc. One teaching disadvantageWAS when an!instruotor bad three day classes and th3..1 was assigned anight classithe same day. This would amount to 71g hours of teaching,which is a 4ather difficult load.

My own personal opinion is that unless there is a significant savingsin fuel, elootrioity, etc., which was the purpose of the 4-day week, thatwe should return to the traditional 5-day week.

READING DEPARTMENT

Herbert Hoffmann

The following observations and judgements are noted relative to the efficacyof the spring term four-day week experiment:

1. Course scheduling for advisees appeared much easier and more mean-ingful for students. Daily times for courses were the same regardlessof the T-Th or M-W offerings.

2. An examination of records indicates that a majority of instructors inthe department met and/or exceeded the hours on campus recommendedby the President.

3. A majority of department instructors used several non-work days(Friday/Saturday) for attendance and/or participation in conferences orother visitation directly related to the area of specialization. This wasa plus factor in that no contact time with students was lost.

4. A comparison of end-of-term departmental course grades indicates nosignificant deviation above or below those issued in previous terms.Student achievement of prescribed skills proficiency was as high as ithad been previously.

5. Student attendance in reading department courses was nol adverselyaffected by the experimental program. No problems directly attributableto the program were noted.

6. A sizeable majority (based on informal departmental survey instrumentand instructor judgement of interaction) indicated a healthy student at-titude for the experiment. There were several students who were in op-position to the program due to time constraints for lab and/or contacthour program requirem ents.

7. Instructor availability for conferences, meetings, advising, counseling,etc.... appeared superior when compared with previous terms. Amajority of department instructors felt student-contact and instructor-student interaction was better than in previous term:.

8. All instructors in the department noted a fatigue factor the first weekor so. This appeared to decline substantially, however, as the termprogressed. It is noted that a majority of instructors appeared morealert and creative on Monday's more eager and desirous of improvingthe existing department, its courses and student programs.

1 37

9, Heading department instructors indicated no adverse affects of theoverall reading program -- rather, the program quality is improvedover that which existed earlier. Instructors attribute the improve-ment to the four-day week and more specifically to the reasons citedin 0 8 above.

10. The resources of the reading center were utilized to about the samedegree as was noted during the conventional 5 day week programs.No reduction in the percentage of student utilization was noted, althoughthe spring term enrollment in reading was lower than the enrollmentfor spring 1973 terms.

11. Instructors indicated that Friday became a day for a wide assortmentof things to do -- shopping, cleaning, conferences, personal business,etc... They welcomed the opportunity to transact business and dc'whatneeded doing".

12. It is recognized that some departments or some activities and/or programswould experience difficulties and require modification to a greater degreethan we experienced, A majority of department instructors support thefour-day week concept. Change is as inevitable as taxes. Some educatorsact as though educational progress can be made or achieved without change.They cheer educational progress as long as it doesn't really change theirways of doing things.

In education, too often, we "progress" by changing the name and keepingthe practice the same. Educators must learn to learr. -- to change somepractices -- to do things differently -- to do things better. We canchange -- we can progress -- when and if we master the skill of change.

I feel the stress that has oocurrol has been primarily with non-

As an academic issue, the Social Sciences Department faculty believe

that the four-day week bad far more negative aspects than positive. We be-

lieve that our particular student body would benefit from additional contact

with us and the college environment rather than less. Though we can place

the responsibility for this contact on the student, nonetheless we realise

that in most instances, many of our students will reduce their time on Immixs

to an absolute minimum for a variety of reasons. As we presented our ideas

to the Transfer Division we came to find that it seemed reasonable that, In

fact, our students might benefit from a type of quarter system where they

took fewer courses each term, but were in more constant contact with each

of their instructors' thus a student might enroll in three courses and meet

with the instructor five days a week.

in terms of benefits, one faculty member believes that be is able to

handle his material in blocks of one and one-half hours more effectively.

Dy the same token he believes with other departmental faculty that the stu-

dents do not care for classes that long in duration. We all agree that in

terms of continuity the two day a week classes were very poor. We simply

believe there is a greater degree of continuity three days a week than two.

In classes where discussion is a major feature, the two day a week classes

were all but impossible to conduct.

Though not responsible for the LEO and English Lab, we are distressed

at the decreased use of these facilities and are convinced this is due to

the fourday week and the students view that the less time on campus

the better,

I personally enjoyed having Friday off. However, I do notfeel that this schedule should be pursued in the future forthe following reasons:

(1) I did not get as much work done as I did when wewere on the 5 day week. During the last hour ofthe day, because of long hours, my mind was notalert.

(2) Most of my financial aid meetings are held duringthe early part of the week. In many instances Iwould only be accessible to students for two days,during those weeks when I had to attend meetings.

(3) Students had difficulty in putting in CollegeWork Study hours. The commuting students andstudents working on campus, with their class'schedule, putting in more than ten hours was animpossible task.

(4) in my talking with students the four day week didnot meet their needs - no time for extra activities,no time during the day for the library, no timeto work etd.

Generally, my opinion of the four-day week is negative.

From the Faculty and Staff standpoints Many expressed the

opinion that they became tired around 4-4130 and past this

time not able to work as efficiently. I found this true of

myself. Others expressed that they enjoyed the 3 day week-

end but really were exausted at the end of 4 days and needed

it. As a club sponsor, I found it interferred with the

activity of our olub(BCM). Many members could not meet.

Communication was also a problem. The club felt they weren't

as effective last semester and blamed it on not having a

convenient meeting time.

Many students (except those involved in extra-curricular

activities) seemed pleased with the four day week expeoially

those that were able to go home more often due to the longer

week-end, and those who work on weekends.

STUDENT SERVIO1r3 PERSONNEL

SPECIAL SERVIOESLamar J. Williams

It is my considered opinion,

that the four-day week was de-sirable. However, I feel the evaluation of the system fry& thestudents' point of view, should carry more weight than from thestaff's evaluations.

The staff's viewpoints are mixed toward the four-day week.These viewpoints ranged from most desirable to totally time con-suming. I guess the biggest dimension of consideration on thefour-day week was lack of time to see students for counseling.In the opinion of the staff, scheduling of classes hour afterhour without a break almost made it impossible to see studentsthat we wanted to see for various reasons. This resulted inour having one of two problems in seeing various students. One,they were either in classes one after another; second, theywere not on campus because they did not have classes at all thatday. That was a real problem in seeing needed students forregular scheduled activities via Special Services.

The four-day week presented us with another problem, that offinding tutors. For many of those students who served as studenttutors the fall semester, ultimately had to discontinue tutoringdue to their class scheduling.

If I might make 4 recommendation, I mould like to see abreak in the class schedule around mid -day. I sincerely feelthat this would break the monotony of long class hours; it wouldalso give those students who want a lunch break to have one, butdue to class scheduling could not work one in. This would alsogive the advisors a chance to see their advisees for a scheduledappointment, and give the students an opportunity for some studentactivities. I would strongly encourage the break, if we are toimplement the four-day week again.

Regarding,the issue of theAeday week, it is my opinion that the

majority of people, both students and staff, fall into one of two

categories. They are extremely fond of the 40day week or they bate

it. Personally, 1 feel that I get more work done on the 5day edhe-

dule. With the 4-day week you are very tired by late afternoon and

this reduces the amount of work you will gat done near the end of the

day.

The 4.day week hie been a very hard blow to many of our students

involved in extra curricular activities. Students do not have time

to spend on activities outside of the olaseroom that require inter.

action in group activities. Intramuralri does not offer team sports

due to scheduling. The SGA has suffered tremendously from a laok of

time.

It would appear that the college would give thought to the fact

that in educating an individual we must concern ourselves with their

over-all development. People continue to have more and more free time.

We must concern ourselves with developing leadership and a sense of

well-being along with their classroom experiences. We must expose

students to activities that will encourage their interest in sports,

cultural activities, and appreciation for getting along and under-

standing other people.

EVALUATION OY THE LEARNING RESOURCES CENTER

SUMMARY OF EVALUATION BY THE LEARNING RESOURCES CENTER

METHOD

Mrs. Ella Francis prepared the evaluation by the Learning ResourcesCenter from LRC date.

RESULTS

The Learning Resources Center experienced a decline in use of allfacilities. The best comparison is between the 1973 and 1974 periods.The January through April 1974 circulation of books was 3,596 comparedto 5,000 for the same period 1973 or 71.9% of the 1973 circulation.Faculty use was 85.6% of the 1973 use. Reserves usage in 1974 was55.7% of the 1973 usage. The LRC also experienced difficulties inscheduling to fit both usage and the needs of the various programs.

152

AN'ASSESSMENT OF THE IMPACT OF THE FOUR-DAYACADEMIC WEEK ON STUDENT USE OF THE

LEARNING RESOURCES CENTER

ELLA FRANCISDIRECTOR LEARNING RESOURCES CENTER

The attached statistical material shows that the circulation ofbooks and materials declined by approximately 50% from the previousyear during the period of operating on the four-day week. The LRCstaff believe that this decline In the circulation of materials Isa serious threat to the academic and intellectual development ofthe student population. It is also thought that the number of studentswho used the LRC as a place to study decreased significantly duringthe period of the four-day week: statistics on attendance are notavailable for the 1972-73 academic year, but the staff believe onlyabout half of the usual number of students were studying in the LRCduring the period In question.

The four-day week caused many commuting students to have solittle free time on days they were on campus that they had to doall their studying nt home, after school. This problem was especiallyvocalized by the LRC work study students. They were quite limitedIn the number of free hours during which they could work, which meantthat at some times, when they were most needed, all were In class.The work study students complained of poor studying conditions athome and said thet they preferred to study at school.

Although the LRC tries to maintain a strong collection of booksand media which will both support the College's curriculum and meetthe information needs of the faculty and staff, it Is recognized-that the collection can not meet all the needs of all the faculty.However, it is believed that more faculty use of the LRC occurredprior to the four-day week than during that period.

Although hesitant to attempt to establish a direct causal rela-ttionship between the four-day week and declines in weekend use, theLRC staff would+like to point out that during the period of the four-day academic week, It first became necessary to close on Thursdayevenings and Sunday afternoons due to lack of attendance. The hoursthe LRC was then open were below the minimum set by the SouthernAssociation.

The LRC staff believe that unless the area's energy situationbecomes much worse than in the past, that any energy savings effectedby the four-day week are far outweighed by the disservice it doesto the student who sincerely wants to learn.

153

Due to the fact that not all departments on the four-day weekwere using the same four days, it was determined that the LRC shouldcontinue on the five-day week In order to provide equal accessibilityof materials to all students, faculty, and staff. Mrs. Francis,director, Mr. McCracken, media specialist, and Mr. French, referencelibrarian, personally preferred the five-day week, and, as statisticaldata became available, became less enthusiastic about the four-dayweek.

The clerical/secretarial staff all preferred the five-day week,citing personal inconvenience, transportation problems, and difficultyof meshing the longer working day Into their families' lives as reasonsfor their preference. The LRC staff also had the responsibility ofanswering the telephone, which rang constantly on Fridays. Theypointed out that transacting business is much less' complicated whenall parties work the same hours.' Additionally, the four-day weekslowed down newspaper and periodical delivery to the LRC tremendously.Some newspapers were as much as five days late being put out forpublic use.

The only person preferring the four-day week based his prefer7once on personal convenience.

Conclusions based on the experience of this department may bestated as followst

1. All departments should be on the same schedule.2. The four-day week caused much lost staff time.3. The five-day week Is demonstrably superior.

ENROLLMENT DATA'

MARY OF FULL-T110 ENROLLMENT DATA BY SEMESTER1969.70 THROUGH 1973-74

METHOD

The registrar supplied enrollment data on fhll-time (not PTOstudents for the first and second semesters from the school year1969.70 through the 1573-74 term.

RESULTS

The full -time enrollment trend over this period has been arather steady increase with a sharper increase between the 1972-73and 1973-74 terms. The second semester normally runs a lower en-rollment than the first. When these enrollments are plotted ona graph the curves are essentially parallel for the total suggest-ing that no unusual faotor is operating. This holds true also forthe technical and transfer division breakdowns except 1973-74second semester enrollment for the technical division is slightlyhigher than the first semester and the transfer division for thesame period shows a slightly greater decrease in enrollment thannormal.

QUANTITY OF EDUCATIONAL SERVICES

SUMMARY OF QUANTITY OF EDUCATIONAL SERVICES1971-72 THROUGH 1973-74

METHOD

The number of sections on the printed schedules were counted foreach of thb six semesters 1971-72 through 1973-74.

Total's by major subject area and program for the three terms spring1973, fa11!1973 and spring, 1974 were also determined. No attempt wasmade to acpount for additions to the schedule or sections.that weredropped.

V

RESULTS

The maximum range of the total number of sections is 53 sectionswith fewest number of sections during the fall 1971-72 semester and thegreatest number of sections in the spring semester of 1974 with thefour-day week. The total number of sections for the second semester1973-74 (fOur-day week) is 48 sections greater than the second semester

1972-73. The breakdown into major subject areas and programs showedvery little variation across the three terms spring 1973, fall 1973and spring 1974 except the increase noted above.

ANALYSIS OF GRADES

GRADE DISTRIBUTIONS TOTALS

SUMMARY OF ANALYSIS OF GRADE

MISISOD

Two sets of computer data were available. The most useful ofthese was a print-out of the grade distributions by major subjectareas for the second semester 1972-73 and the first and second semester1973-74. Most desired distributions could be obtained from thisdata including a total and breakdowns by division. Grade dts-tributions for selected subjeots were investigated. These distri.butions inoluded the required subjects of the transfer division andthe larger elements of the technical division.

The second set of data was grade point averages by major fieldin the transfer division and program for the technical division.The number of reported students in many of these major fields andprograms is too small for the comparative data to be of value.

RESULTS

The total grade distribution data shows a maximum variationof three percent for any gride across the three terms spring sem-ester 1973, fall semester 1973 and spring semester 1974 (four-dAYweek). The maximiks percent in grade variation in the technical di-vision is 4.5 per cent and in the transfer diVision fire per eat. ,

These grade matiudm variations are for F in the total distributionand the transfer division distribution and A grades (an increase)in the technical division, In both of the F situation the.slightincrease. in F mdes is en.inoreale each term, i.e. an inereatie*F percentage for the fall term 1973 over the spring term 1913 and anincrease in P grades for the spring term 1974 over the fall term 1973.This consistent and progressive change strongly suggests some faptOr,other than the four-day week is operating.

The selected subject grade distributions show a wide-variationin pattern between subjects and across the three terms. The 'data

here is insufficient to establish a normal expected grade variationas a basis for interpreting with reference to the four-day week.

Theproportion.of these savings that should be attributed to the four-day week cannot be, determined. The use of a factor of one-fifthmore attributed to the faur-day week-has hazards and amounts onlyto a guesst As a matteeWhindsight, in order to establish a reason-able estimate of the proportion of the total energy saved by thedeletion of one day would require careful advance planning andrecording on a weekly (four-day) and the single day basis. It

would almoit certainly require a change In some of our meteringdevices eta. This writer'doesn't like to even think about thevariables and details of this problem.

Electrical usage Is further confused by the addition of newbuildings that were heated and cooled by electricity. This ob-viously means an increased amount of electricity consumed and afactor in the total consumption of electricity.

Unfortunately, for comparative purposes, the mean tempera-ture for January was much warmer than normal. Actually the meanJanuary temperature for 1974 was 14.5 degrees higher than themean January temperature for 1973. The mean temperature'for theentire quarter 19/4 was 4.5 degrees above 1973. A compitisonof mean quarterly temperatures and amount of fuel oil consumedsuggests that'a five degree variation in mean temperature makesa difference of approximately' 10000 gallons. As noted abovethe'mean temperature'difference between-1973 and 19/4 was 4.5'degrees'. The fuel 611 savings was 36,303 gallops, Roughly onethird of the'f6el.saving'can be attributed to the warmer weitlier.We can reasonably extend this to othertheating as a gOoa,guesiof the variation of energy consumption dOe to different teirper-

AC-1 Lower thermostats to 68 degrees for winter operation and raise to78 degrees for awirer operation. Calibrate all thermostats foroperational accuracy and only maintenance personnel be allowed tochange setting.

AC-2 Cut off all air handling units in corridors, lobbies and lounges.Operate manually when temperature in these areas fall below 60degrees.

AC-3 Make use of outdoor air during comfortable weather at which timeheating/cooling equipment will be turned off,

AC-4 Put all buildings on time dock operation where possible. Clockswill be set to turn equipment on 2 to 3 hours (depending on outsidetemperature) prior to buildings being occupied and 1 to 2 hours priorto close of student schedule of class day. Buildings that oantt beput on time clock will be operated manually according to scheduleof building Use.

AC-5 No electric heaters maybe used at anytime except as maybe autho-rized by the president.

AC-6 Main entrance to Administration Building be closed when outsidetemperature is 45 degrees or below. And a sign be placed to directtraffic to enter at side entrance, This will allow bettor tempera-ture balance and control in the main lobby area.

AC-7 All ventilating fans be operated only when necessary for healthreasons and then under direction of program director.

AC-8 All cooling unite to drinking fountains be disconnected. All hotwater heaters be disconnected except where needed to meet statehealth regulations.

AC-9 All heating equipment be checked daily to insure most efficient op-eration. Including setting of combustion and using fuel oil addi-tive for cleaner burn.

Note: Figures in parentheses represent Increased costs. Dean Sparkmanpoints out "that the average per unit cost on all of these items didincrease considerably from the 1973 cost. Also in 1974 we added'buildings that increased the net assignable square feet by 5.508 %. ralso might point out that this percentage Increase would not be a trueguide in determining amount of electrical increase since all thesebuildings are actually heated and cooled by electricity, whereas mastof our buildings are not heated and cooled by electricity."
