Changes unlikely for calendar

چکیده
Prospects of changing next year’s academic calendar from a post-Labor Day to a Pre-Labor day start appear unlikely in light of the schedule of university events for next August. According to records in the ACC and the Calendar Office, the National M en ’s Shepherds Con ference (Charismatic Renewal) is scheduled for Aug. 24-28, 1976. The conferences expected to draw between 10,000 and 13,000 members and to require most of the univer s ity fa c il it ie s inc lu d in g the residence halls. Calendar Office records show Sept. 3-6 reserved for Freshman Orientation, with registration on the 7th and the start of classes on Wed., Sept. 8. A ccord ing to A d m in is tra tiv e sources, the calendar for 1976-77 features a post-Labor Day start, a Saturday class and fina l exams past Dec. 20. The lateness of Labor Day next year, said the sources, requires these measures to insure the desired number of class days.

متن کاملA Appendix: Standard Errors
There are several issues concerning computing standard errors for the pooled specification in equation (2). First, insofar as there is heterogeneity in the displaced worker earnings losses, then we expect there to be serial correlation in the standard errors at the individual level. This concern arises even in specification (1). We address this concern by clustering at the person level. Second,...
