UH awakens The orientation process at UH is not painful. There are no “beanies” or shaved heads— hazing is unknown. Neither are there any bizarre initiation rites. Quite the contrary, Freshman Orientation is a meaningful attempt to acclimate “new” students to campus life. There were the usual “fun and games”—guided tours of the University Center, dances in the Houston Room, and of course, the luncheons, dinners and speeches. Dorm sessions An innovation this year was the coed dorm session. Small discussion groups, consisting of a dozen or so freshmen and two or more upperclassmen, would meet about midnight and kick around ideas and opinions. Supplemental “College Encounter” sessions were held during October and November. They were intended to provide the university with information concerning the needs of the freshman class. Greater student involvement was the watchword during orientation, as it turned out to be all year. Above, participants engage in group discussion during “College Encounter.” Freshmen take time for a buffet meal in the UC.

UC hailed as oasis in vast registration entanglement Student involvement in registration is not optional as it is in orientation. Registration by proxy is strictly forbidden. This year 23,517 students hacked their way through the fall registration jungle, only to gasp in disgust upon viewing their completed fee slips. The increase over last fall’s enrollment was only 1,742. Ramon Vitulli, UH Registrar, feels this is an indication the huge influx of students since UH became state-supported in 1963 may be tapering off. For those who survived the lines as far as the fee stations, the University Center offered some consolement. The Cougar Den offered refreshments and the Arbor reverberated with soul and psychedelic music, as 13 local bands auditioned throughout the week for UH students. 28
