THE JAYHAWKER of Rights-- BACK to school for the veteran means more than running down to Rowland ' s for a notebook and a few pencils. For the man who ' s transferring from the school of war to the school of education and peace, the process is long and complicated. On the University of Kansas campus, there is a bureau which specializes in giving every pos- sible aid to the man who wears the little gold wheel. At the Veterans ' Training Bureau, room 2, Frank Strong hall, the discharged serviceman finds a kind staff on hand to give him a hearty welcome. There the veteran who wishes to enter the University gets information and directions in re- gard to the procedure of enrolling in the University. From this office, which becomes his head- quarters, he is directed to the College office or offices of the various schools for enrollment, to Dean Henry Werner for rooms and employment, and if desired, to Dr. A. H. Turney ' s guidance bureau for educational, vocational, personal, and social counselling. In cooperation with the federal government ' s program for the education and training of war veterans, the University of Kansas offers its entire facilities and a special staff, headed by Dr. Leonard Axe, to meet the needs of the men and women returning from service in the armed forces. A Veterans ' Advisory Committee, with L. C. Woodruff as chairman, is available to help the veteran. The Veterans ' Training Bureau takes charge of working out the legal technicalities involved in the educational benefits provided for in Public Law 346, commonly known as the G. I. Bill of Rights, and Public Law 16, vocational rehabilitation. Under the G. I. Bill of Rights, the veteran is eligible to receive education or training, when the following conditions are met: ( 1 ) If he has served in the active military or naval service on or after Sept. 16, 1940, and prior to the termination of World War II. (2) If he has been discharged or released under conditions other than dishonorable. (3) If his education or training was impeded, delayed, interrupted, or interfered with by reason of his entrance into the service; that is, any person who was not over 25 years of age at (Continued on Page 61) Top: left, Jack Greet, freshman, College; right, Tom Harris, junior, Special, Business.

There are five women veterans at K.U. Every school in the University has veterans en- rolled, but the major trend is toward engineering and business administration. Kansas veterans are an integral part of the K.U. population of 3800 students, participating in various campus activities. Their only exclusive group is The Veterans, a club organized last year for the purpose of helping the veterans to adjust themselves to campus life. Photos by Brown
