Freshmen to participate
in July preregistration
By SHERRY STRATTON
Of the Emerald
The University is trying to
make registration easier this
year—at least for entering fresh
men.
There will be 203 students and
134 parents present for the first
summer orientation-registration
program which begins at 8:30
a.m. Friday. Exactly 1,200
students are scheduled to par
ticipate in six one-day sessions
during the next three weeks. The
sessions are scheduled for July
14, 17, 21, 24 , 28, and 31.
Personalizing
“The whole idea is to make it
(the registration procedure) as
personal as possible and
decrease the confusion of first
term registration for freshmen,”
said Tom Mills, assistant dean of
students.
For the early-registering
students, the day will proceed as
follows:
Parents and students will meet
together in the morning in 150
Science for a 45-minute general
session. The group will then move
to the Bean West dormitory
complex where parents will be
attending orientation sessions all
day. The students will be divided
into three rotating groups with
one group registering in the
morning, the second group
registering in the late morning
and early afternoon and the third
registering in the afternoon.
About two hours have been set
aside for each group to go
through the advising and
registration process. An adviser
from each department will be
present on the second floor of the
EMU. This will save the students
from having to go to each
Planning committee
deletes’ parking lot
A recommendation to develop a
parking area on Eugene Sand and
Gravel property behind the
University physical plant was
“deleted” Wednesday by the
Campus Planning Committee.
The recommendation, made by
the Campus Parking Sub
committee, called for the area to
be unpaved and available at $10 a
year for faculty and staff, and
$7.50 for students.
Gravel needed
Committee member Harold
Babcock noted the area is now
being filled in with dirt, and if it
were to be used as a parking lot,
at least six inches of gravel would
be needed to provide an adequate
surface. He cited problem^ that
would occur in a dirt lot during
the rainy season.
Also commenting on the
proposed lot was Captain Oakley
Glenn of the Office of Campus
Security, who mentioned the
problems involved with policing a
parking lot that far from campus.
He said an officer would have to
walk to the lot because driving is
not convenient.
A planning subcommittee will
look into the area further to
determine to which future uses
the area might be suited. It was
noted the filling of the area could
eliminate a flooding problem and
therefore make the site
developable.
Other action
In other action concerning the
parking committee’s recom
mendations, the Planning
Committee agreed to explore the
possibility of creating a parking
lot in the old vet’s dorm area near
the School of Music. Twelve other
recommendations in the parking
report were left to the parking
subcommittee for implemen
tation.

department on campus, Mills
said. Following the talks with
advisers the students will go
through the registration
procedure in the EMU Ballroom.
Sept. 5 deadline
Students in the early
registration program will have
until Sept. 5 to pay their fees.
Parents and the students in the
two groups not involved in
registration will attend their
choices of several parent-student
information and discussion
sessions. Twelve of these
orientation sessions will be led by
faculty. Some of the topics to be
covered in the morning sessions
are academic trends, housing
options, student crises: medical,
personal, academic; students in
community service, and
recreational alternatives. Topics
for the afternoon sessions are
students and politics, financial
aid, career opportunities, and
introduction to Eugene.
One third involved
The summer orientation
registration program will take
care of more than one-third of the
expected 3,000 freshmen entering
the University in the fall.
The University intends to use
the advance registration in
formation to schedule fall term
classes and eliminate the many
closed sections that students
were confronted with last fall.
Bids received for EMU
Wednesday night bids were opened and announced on the
proposed construction of an addition to the EMU. Jack Hunderup, vice
chancellor for facilities planning, opened the sealed envelopes which
had been turned in earlier by companies that wished to participate in
the bidding.
An apparent low bid of $2,982,743 was turned in by the Todd
Building Company, while the only other bid of $3,149,000 was given by
VIK Construction Company. The actual awarding of the contract for
construction will take place sometime next week.
According to Hunderup a total budget of $3,395,000 has been
allocated for the construction and furnishing of the addition. This
money must pay for all fees and furnishings as well as the actual
construction of the addition and remodelling of the old EMU.
A sale of self-liquidating construction bonds is to pay the cost of
the addition. The bonds were bid on and sold at a meeting of the State
Board of Higher Education Tuesday. Harris Trust & Savings Bank of
Chicago and the First National Bank of Oregon formed a combination
which bought the bonds at that time.
The addition is to be completed by the spring of 1974 with actual
work to begin sometime in the next few weeks.
The proposed addition will cross Onyx street into the Carson Quad
and will hold new ASUO offices as well as several other new facilities.
