In addition to the regular programs offered by the University, special terminal programs have been set up to meet the needs of the returning veterans.

Acting Training Supervisor John H. Wicks explains enrollment pro- cedure to Joseph Klosterman, Commerce junior, and other veterans. Veterans’ problems—vocational, educational, per- sonal, and financial, which are of vital importance to the five thousand and two hundred returned GI’s at the University of Detroit, are the direct concern of the University’s Veterans Bureau. The Veterans Bureau is a part of the Student Counsel Bureau, which is under the directorship of Professor Paul P. Harbrecht. It occupies three offices in the Science Building on the McNichols Road Campus; a branch of this office 1s also maintained in Dinan Hall on the Jeff- erson Avenue campus. The special problems of the veterans, who came to the Student Counsel Bureau for help and guidance early in the spring of 1944, brought about the establishment of the Special Veterans Division. Prior to that time the Student Counsel Bureau devoted itself entirely to pre- college guidance and counsel to etvilian high school grad- University Veterans Bureau Prof. Paul P.

One of the objectives of the Veterans Bureau is to keep the returning veteran informed concerning his edu- cational rights and privileges under the various federal laws. The Bureau also acts as the coordinating agent between the veteran, the University of Detroit, and the Veterans Administration. It is continuously in touch with the Registrar, Bursar and the Deans of the Uni- versity’s Schools and Colleges in regard to veteran prob- lems. In order to service veteran’s problems of a non-aca- demic nature, the Veterans Bureau established in June, 1946, a branch office of the Veterans Administration on the MeNichols Road campus. The branch office now occupies Room 104 in the Science Building and adjoins the two counseling offices of the University’s Veterans Bureau.
