Orientation Opens Eyes As use celebrated its 100th anniversa- ry, the orientation program celebrated its 10th year of operation. Summer orienta- tion was conducted on campus and in New Jersey, Hawaii, and Chicago. Dean Mannes and representatives from the or- ientation staff, LAS department, registra- tion office, and testing bureau were in charge of the summer program. Students attending the summer pro- gram at use had many advantages over those who attended the out-of-state pro- grams, use based orientation students spent two days experiencing the orienta- tion procedures, while the out-of-state students had one day. In addition, ad- visement, testing and registration were the only activities out-of-state students ■ participated in, whereas the students at- tending the on-campus program were ad- ditionally provided with tours of cam- pus, enjoyed a student activities fair and were serenaded by the Trojan Marching Band. In conjunction with the summer pro- gram was fall orientation, held one week before classes started. New or transfer students from all states were encouraged to participate in this program, which sponsored activities designed to help out-of-state students and those who did not attend summer orientation. Out-of- state students were also recommended to fly to use together and were met at the airport by university officials. Each day of fall orientation was created to make students aware of the different aspects of student life.

Center: ANOTHER LINE? — Students and parents find 8:00 a.m. orienta- tion check in just the begining of a long day.
