The furnishings and decora- tions have been plahned to attract the eye and to provide comfortable, inviting, and restful surroundings. In the work equipment of the office, there are community files which are open to students as individuals or as groups, who may go about their work of promoting opportunities for learning to live together. There are also files open to instructors and advisers who need a back- ground of information about the individual student if intelligent help and advice are to be given. In the personnel of the office there are people eager to understand the problems confronting the student who comes in for guidance and to serve effi- ciently in whatever way the needs of its clientele may direct.
