AND THE REST OF US LIVE AT HOME, spending most of our time and weekly allowances on streetcar trips and enjoying the scenery to and from classes. Mother has a tough time rolling us out of bed in time to make those 8:30 ' s, but a quick orange juice and a big shove out of the front door usually give us enough energy to keep running the rest of the day. It never fails that just when we ' re in the midst of the daily brain twister for tech mech, little brother encourages the radio to blare out with Lone Ranger or the like. But There ' s no place like home , and it looks like we ' re stuck with it. 20

ROW I— Dick, L.; Thompson, J.; Green, E.; Phillips, D. ROW II — Bishop, R.; Porter, W.; Schorfenbergor, I.; Reed, G. ORIENTATION BOARD The biggest function of the Orientation Board might be symbolized by a pointing finger. The job of directing the large influx of freshmen each fall to unknown buildings be- comes a week-long chore. And as it always happens, there is the senior who still must be directed to the Physics Building. In the summer of 1947 the Orientation Board gave a short program for one hundred and eight students, who were either new or transferring to the University. At this time the Orientation Board proctored the Psychological and the Vocational Interest tests. The tests were followed by a dinner in the Student Union where special entertainment was provided. In the fall of 1947 the board had a program for the freshmen and transfer students. This was the major function of the year. Due to the difference of one week in the time of regis- tration for the different colleges, the Orientation Board had two separate programs. Both of the programs started with a welcoming address by President Walters. Later the same day the new students were given the opportunity of meeting their respective tribunals. Here, they learned the many facilities, services, traditions, and activities the university has to offer. The Orientation Board closed the 1947-48 program with the annual Freshman open house and dance. Music, food, and special entertainment were provided, and the new students had a chance to meet their fellow clas s mates. As an extra attraction for the out- of-town students, the Orientation Board sponsored a city-wide sight seeing trip by streetcar. 22
