pRE-RQGISERAUOH IESUHG Classes havenit even started and already the entering freshmen are being tested. Students undergo tests in Biology, the languages and in Physical Science. These tests are used to place individual students according to their perform- ance. It is to their distinct advantage to do well on these placement examinations as there is the possibility that they will ttcomp out of a subject or a semester in a language requirement. This, if the student succeeds in ttcomping out of a course, permits the student to start his major field earlier than he might if faced with the additional requirements that these tests allow the students to demonstrate their proficiency and ca- pability in, thus eliminating as many as three semesters of a language, Biology and Physical Science, if the departments, chose powers that be , so deem it.

Cindy and Mark were appointed head mentors in the spring of 1970 for the fall 1970 mentor leaders, an honor well deserved by both graduating seniors.

pne-neqnsmatlon Pre-registration is the prelimi- nary step to formal registration. New freshmen confer individually with professors, trying to establish a long range program towards graduation as well as a short range program that will allow them to fulfill college requirements before their last semester when, much to their dismay and anger, they discover that they need a course which isnt being offered, thus creating innumerable hassles. These con- ferences take place after comp test results are known. To the right, Professor William Jennings Terman helps Jan Sessions schedule her classes. Below, Professor Mark Watson commis- erates with Pat Wittbrodt.
