Dan W. Poling, director of new student programs at OSU, said the voluntary program, first given in the summer of 1969, has proved very worth while. “Our experience the last two years has proved conclusively that there are distinct advant ages to the young people who can be introduced to the univer sity in small groups,” Poling noted. “They receive the kind of personal attention that is not possible when they come in great numbers in the fall,” he continued. "Students feel at home when they come back in September.” The summer schedule has been condensed, allowing for arrival of students and parents in the late afternoon July 11, 14, 18 or 21. The program begins immediately after din- ner, and concludes with lunch on the third day.
