March 28, 1974 — Forget the classes

Allen High students took four days off their regular school schedules last week and participated in what they wanted to do- take minicourses.

The program, designed after a similar idea at Midland College in Fremont, allows students to select short courses they would like to sample. Starting last Monday, students dropped their regular studies to take up such courses as dancing, first aid, ceramics, bridge, golf and knitting, along with a host of other subjects. The only restriction- none of the students could take a study hall.
