Often more than 1,000 actually did participate, A typical day during Welcome week included a program so compact and varieil that no freshman could attend all of the scheduled events. It began with a grouii meeting, and, later in the morning, a convocation. The groups were the same ones which were tormed during the orientation period. Then came lunch, and with it a program. , fter that the groups might watch sample classrooms in the Union. Next they may lia e totirecl the campus or jiarticip.ited in a spe- cial day, such as athletics day, which began with a Ger- man band leading the entire mob to Oioke hall.
