*7he jbotimit&nf Repaid (Continued from page tivo) to make introductions at the dance.'’ To further relieve “the tension of a rather hectic week,” informal open houses might be held by women dormitory organizations. “Such functions would help people get ac quainted and might lend some impetus to dorm social programs for fall term.” In the period preceding new student week, the committee suggests the sending of a booklet explaining the dormitory set-up to new students. A form with information of the students “home background, high school Scholastic activity and athletic record, inter ests, probable major, etc,” might be secured and used in making room assignments. After new student week, informal talks and discussions might be held with freshmen bv the hall, unit, and floor organizations, and in some cases by the counselor, and might con tinue throughout the school year. Suggested topics would include “Meaning of Grades,” “Meaning of Education,” “How to study,” “How to write an exam,” “Opportunities in and advantages of campus activities.” The program suggested by the committee rests a great deal upon the wise selection of the counselor, and his ability to gain the re spect of the freshmen. The next article of this series will summarize the committee’s rec commendations on Counselors.—Editor.
