1,851 Will Get Degrees at June Commencement Ceremony Figures compiled by the Regis trar's Office indicate there are 1851 candidates for advanced and baccalaureate degrees in the Uni versity’s 1963 graduation class. The University’s June 9 com mencement will be the first one that follows a summer commence ment, which eases the load on the June ceremony The University’s first summer commencement was in August, 1962, when about 400 received degrees. As a result, the total number receiving degrees this June is slightly under the all-time record figure of 1892 set in June, 1902. The decline is especially noted in candidates for advanced de grees, as most of those in last year's summer commencement re ceived such degrees. This June there are 444 candidates for such degrees, compared to 552 in June, 1962 The University plans a summer commencement again this sum mer, following the eight week summer session The ceremony, which has proved successful in keeping the June commencement within manageable limits, will be in August. The University will also have an 11 week summer ses sion, which gives an opportunity for students to complete a full term of work during the summer. Commencement and baccalaur eate exercises for the June cere mony will be Sunday, June 9, at 2:30 pm, with University Presi Sabin...

They wanted to go under one roof at all costs However, this would be fairly easy to do with out destroying the Willcox building For example, there are plans to close 13th Avenue from auto traffic. Kincaid Street and the alley next to the ex isting book facility might sen sibly be closed also, and this would create all sorts of new real estate which could be util ized for building Or the Campus Planning Com mission has already shown in terest in the Co-op’s expansion problem and may propose to give the Co-op land to build on. It seems reasonable also that the Coop could even ask the Commission for land. I’m sure there are many more alterna fives available which don’t re quire vast amounts of money. All that is needed is some meas ure of imagination and respon sible intentions.

Needless to say. I’m a little nervous. Friends tell me, however, that real life is very much like University life. | “If it weren’t for the real world,” a friend told me, “the Univer- j sity wouldn’t be like it is.” Having taken a few tentative peeks Outside, I have discovered that there are many situations in real life that are roughly similar to things at the University. For example, the United States has a president just like the University—well, not just like, but some thing like. (For some reason, however, the world doesn't have a ; president. It is run by a committee called the United Nations. Having seen committees in action at the University, I think I see why there arc so many problems in the world.) I notice, too, that there are parallel types of people in the real world and at the University. There are people here who don’t want to have to pay compulsory fees, and there are people Outside who want to abolish the income tax. The people Outside, however, are on the extreme right of their spectrum, and the people here are on the extreme left of ours. (However, as George Orwell j would have put it, right is left and left is right. It’s the people in the middle who are really different.) People try to encourage me about my new job. too. (“Try to thing of the Oregonian as a big Emerald,” one of my friends told me. “After all, the Oregonian makes mistakes, too.” I understand the Outside has its counterpart to the Young Repub licans and the Young Democrats, too. (They are sometimes called Old Republicans and Old Democrats.) “The Old Republicans and the Old Democrats aren’t the same as the.young ones, however,” a friend told me. “Oh, really,” I said. “What do the old ones do?” “Well, they hold conventions . . . Well, maybe they aren't really very different after all." Sometimes people try to let me down gently when I really don't need it. Last week a friend wrinkled his brow and told me, “There are injustices Out There, too. you know." “Oh, I know that,” I said. “But I need a new set. I’m tired of the ones I have. Fellow needs a change, you know.” Actually, when you think about it, many of the things we study here have a good deal to do with real life. For example, many of the things we study in history courses actually happened, only a long time ago. I know this because when I was doing research for my thesis in the New York Times, I saw that there really was a battleship Maine and it actually was sunk at Cuba. That was sort of reassuring to find out. (Incidentally, don’t try to figure out why I was reading about the Maine when I was supposed to be doing research on Adolf Eichmann. There are things in life called enigmas, and I think this is one of them.) One thing they have out in real life that we have here is Dairy Queen. Actually, Dairy Queen is a part of real life. It’s just so close to us that we forget that it isn’t part of the University. If it were, the University would be tearing it down and we would be protesting. And, of course, that would be a worthwhile protest. After all, Dairy Queen is good for you. Very tasty, too. And so, we bid fond farewell to the scenic University of Oregon, home of the squirrel and nut. As the sun dips nonexistently into the Millrace, we can hear the simple adieu of a happy, smiling native as he cries, “So long! See your funny face again some time!
