M5 ad' Maj!! With each September come some dazed, somewhat starry-eyed, and often brash young individuals to Western. September 1968 was no exception. And Western was in various forms of readiness for them. The Administration had been ready for them for some months. The University Students' Council was ready for them. Purple Spur lay in wait with their beanies and buttons. Residence Councils were prepared for their unwitting victims. And again the poor bastards walked right into the trap. Between academic registration, social orientation, group sessions with their USC-appointed leader, sample lectures, College Council luncheons, dances, eating, and sleeping, the first year types were theoretically integrated into the community here. As usual, there was not enough co-operation, and too many individuals tried to carve out their own little empires in the whole orientation procedure. Still and all, it wasn't all that bad.
