Frosh Orientation Freshmen and new students were given general information on the ins and outs of college life, forming study habits, and tested for abilities. Co-chairmen Helen Gregory and Lee Scott saw that the incoming students were kept busy during the week before classes began. President Theophilus conducted the Presi dent's Convocation that started off Orien- tation activities. The busy frosh attended various assemblies to acquaint them with the different functions of the university, and took aptitude and interest tests to help them in choosing majors. Orientation was not all work, for mixers were held at various times and the whole problem was capped off by an all-campus carnival-mixer.
