Freshmen, who are going through Rush, and Ira- ternity men are here on cznnpus about two weeks belore school begins lor Rush Wfeek. Alter Rush VVeel4 is over, entering Freshmen are required to be here lor Freshmen Orientation VVeek. The week is a turmoil ol meetings. tests, lectures, t'onl'erences and the first regis- tration. And the first registration is hectic. XVhile Freshmen are being orientated. the remainder of us are trying to go along, with the system ol register- ing. But it isn't so easy to hgure out the complex regis- tration systemg consequently, many ol' us hght the sys- tem each time we register. It is remarkable how many times we stand in line lor a certain class or section only to have it close when we are next. Then, we have two alternatives, either wait lor the section to open again or take the class at a dillerent time. There is one more detail to attend to alter registration and belore going to our classes-buying books, an education in itself. But the University does try to lacilitate registration and orientation for lreshmen by employing the use ol Freshmen Advisers. Selected and elected on the basis ol their knowledge ol the campus and its customs. they are most helpful to newcomers. Debate has been going on this year as to whether freshmen should possibly register lirst. Under classmen say Yesg the seniors vote No. i is rt resins AN s't IiimNq- y imvi o--'knyxt fri .

During registration week, the president holds a recep tion for the faculty who have just joined the staff. Hosts and hcstesses for the Presidents reception are selected from Angel Flight and various branches ot the ROTC. As the reception usually held in the Union, these students are invaluable to the new faculty members in helping them to locate the reception room. 3 , if ,f'1EM.aa',si . v 'Eg' .

The Game Mean a Pep Rall Much ofthe energy and pep we have for our feann must be uncovered and developed by our cheerleaders. With a crevv ot cheerl aders like this, how could we possibly have an apathetic spirit at a pep rally or game? lt's pure Illini tradition when one yells. 'KJV l F U'-K ' it -Q
