Freshmen May Change Each Year A GUARANTEED METHOD for making new friends is to lounge around in the bustling, noisy atmosphere of the crowded Student Center, chatting about old times and new ones to come. DESPITE THE RUMORS, the food this past week has been good enough to make me hungry just thinking about it. It was good, also, to greet new friends on both sides of the counter. From the four corners of the earth they came — all sizes, shapes, and types — all different and yet soinewhat alike. This year the freshman class numbered 200. These poor, bewildered people gathered together for the first time Sept. 8, to start their college careers with Freshman Week which was designated to make them officially a part of what is now their university. Getting settled in their dorms was a trying but pleasant task. Impossible as it seemed then, everybody ' s belongings finally found a place, and the freshmen were ready for the week ahead. Placement tests were first on the agenda. When they were finally completed, ' fun was the key-word and this became evident at the Fun Night picnic. Wednesday, the freshman girls met with Mrs. Hamilton, dean of women, in the Student Center, to get a few ideas of college life and what the University expected of thein. Later, freshmen got a preview of the curriculum ahead of them, as they pre-registered with the deans of their re- spective colleges. At these conferences students received valuable advice in regards to their future years at college. THIS H.APPENS to be the last empty space in the entire hall. Now, where am I going to put my other twenty-six bags and fifteen boxes? Sometimes, the freshmen miscalculate the dimensions of their rooms and forget to count in the new roommate. 12
