Freshmen aided y U-D services Who tells the incoming freshmen how to register, what courses to take and when to pay tuition? With many service centers on campus, U-D takes good care of its bewildered students. With the Health Center to care for their well-being, the Psychological Serv- ices Center to help them select majors and the Placement Bureau to ind them jobs, most newcomershnd the adjustment to campus life relatively painless. The process of adapting to the Univer- sity begins in the Oflice of Admissions. From there, students frequently seek help from the Scholarship Oiiice. An elaborate system of registration guides students through the first few days of each semes- ter, and students proht throughout the year from the labors of the PIO and Serv- ice building personnel. 21

For dmissions Office, fall proves busy time The busiest time of the year for admissions is the period between September and December. This is the time when the University makes the initial contact to the high school seniors throughout the United States, said Fred Shadrick, Dean of Admissions. The University is following a stabilization of enrollment rather than an open door policy as to the number of students and type of students that are ad- mitted into the University? Dean Shadrick emphasized the fact that U-D is interested in attracting the very best students and are getting them from all geographic areas throughout the nation. While admission's main concem is attracting the students, the Registrar's oiiice has the job of keeping the records for all incoming students. In fact, Keeper of the Records is the title that Joseph A. Berkowski, registrar, tags himself. Our main job is to keep in order all the records of the students and to create new ones. Our busy period is the beginning of each semester at registration. As registrar, Joseph Berkowski checks up on student draft deferments Recruitment of new students occupy most of Dean Shadrick's time. 20
