THE DAILY COLLEGIAN
.51ze Women
Commuters Also
Need Orientation
With the revamping of the or
ientation program in progress, we
wonder if there is room for one
more suggestion.
One group of students which
continues to be overlooked is the
commuters. It is difficult for
these students, who usually do lit
tle more on campus than attend
classes, to s find a place in college
life. More than any others, they
need help in develdping campus
ties and interests.
Practically nothing has ever
been done to aid them. Several
things could be. For example, a
room in Old Main or some other
central building could be opened
for their exclusive . use: There
they could spend spare time, eith
er studying or socializing.
Several other large colleges and
universities have arranged for
commuters to lunch together.
With both living and eating space
at a new minimum, at first this
seems an ellogical suggestion.
Perhaps a corner in the Home Ec
oaomicS Cafeteria or Maple Room
could be reserved for them.
Both of these suggestions have
proved desirable and practical in
other colleges. They might be
worth a try on this campus. How
about it, WSGA House of Repre
sentatives or Junior Service
Board?
Student-faculty relations has
usually been one of those sub
jects which students discussed
only on an abstract. level. Plans
and theories have been advanced
but not much action has ever
been taken.
Lately, things have been pick
ing up. For example, the senior
music students organized a picnic
last Friday for the entire depart
ment—students, professors and
their husbands or wives. When
rain stopped the fun in Hort
Woods, "Hum" Fishburn and his
wife invited everybody home with
them.
The best description we can
think of is the stock one used by
small-town papers: "A good time
was had by all."
Our concluding remarks are
equally obvious. Why couldn't
more students' instigate informal
get-togethers, and why aren't
there more professors who invite
students to their homes?

Confused Students Can Relax Again
When Twins Leave For Cornell, MIT
By M. J. WINTER '44
Students Who began seeing
double a year and a half ago can
relax soon. Ruby and Pearl Lee,
twin Chinese coeds, are about to
leave the I\l' ittany Valley.
Ruby arrived at Penn State
two years ago, directly from
China, and six months later
Pearl, who studied for a semester
at Bucknell University, came to
join her sister. Within the next
few weeks, however, they will
Judicial Board
Reports Cases
Eighty-eight coeds were
brought . before WSGA Judicial
Committee during the Summer se
mester, according to Marjorie L.
Sykes '43, chairman.
In the 52 cases from May 25 to
August 19, Judicial Committee
dealt out 76 penalties and excused
10 coeds.
Seniors led the list of offenders
with 23 reported for disobeying
WSGA regulations. Two fresh
man coeds were penalized for
failure to attend mass meeting,
and six for breaking customs,
giving this class the least num
ber of violations.
Frances Atherton Hall hostess
es reported the most offenses.
Most common violation was
lateness. Seventy-two coeds were
from seven to forty minutes later
than WSGA regulations permit.
In addition to the freshman trans
gressions, more serious charges
were brought against eight coeds.
Minor penalties given out by
the Judicial Board include remov
als of forty-four one o'clocks,
four 11 o'clocks, and blackmarks.
Twenty-eight campuses, rang
ing from lenient week-end to two
week strict periods, were meted
out. A one-week plain campus
was given to ten coeds, while two
received two-week strict cam
puses with one month's restricted
dating.
A strict campus prohibits dat
ing, leaving campus, and receiv
ing telephone calls, in addition to
requiring the coed's being in -her
dormitory at 5:45 p. m.
With a plain or lenient campus,
a coed cannot date and must be
in her dormitory one hour before
closing time. This will be a 10
o'clock during the Fall semester.

part. Pearl has received a,
scholarship to Massachusetts In
stitute of Technology, • and Ruby;
has been awarded one at Cornell'
University.
Graduating in May, the twins
have continued their studies at
t'he College. Pearl is studying i
electrical engineering and hopes:
to do radio work either in the
United States or China, depend- 1
ing on post-war conditions.
According to Pearl, "I am the!
only girl and about the worst en--
gineer in the course."
Hoping to return to China 0- ,
ter the war to do research work,
and teaching, Ruby is studyirid
agriculture. Although she likes
science, and Pearl likes physics,
mathematics, and mechanics, Ru
by revealed that her twin wasn't'
very good in economics.
While in China, Ruby and
Pearl went to college in shifts..
Pearl studied at Hong Kong Uni
versity, and Ruby ,went to Ling
nan University in Canton until,
the Japanese occupied the city.
Tlie students then moved to Hong
Kong and used the Hong Kong
University buildings from 5 p. m.
until late at night. Ruby admit
ted that she didn't like night
school; it was hard to use micro
scopes.
As the Japanese moved down to
Hong Kong, Lingnan University
moved once more—to the interior
of China where the agricultural
department of the college was al
ready carrying on experimental
work.
"Penn State is just like . heaven
after life in wartime China," Ru
by said. "Americans are very
curious, enthusiastic, and are al
ways Tull of energy," she observ
ed after two years in the United
States.
