Turnabout Day
Sun to Shine
For Freshmen
Today, Freshmen, in case you
haven't noticed, the sun shines
for you alone. After days of
harrassment and misery at the
hands of the illustrious upper
classmen, your chance has finally
come. Today is your day of re
venge, for today is Turnabout
Day. During the hours of customs
today, you can subject the exalt
ed upperclassmen to the same
treatment they have given .you.
Frosh, be proud to wear your
customs. Today they are a bene
fit instead of a detriment. You
will experience a feeling of pow
er as you see the look of terror
on the faces of superior seniors.
And you'd be surprised how
many upperclassmen don't know
how many steps are in front of.

to the educational interests of the
University subject to the juris
diction of the Board of Trustees.
The decisions of the Graduate
School may be reviewed by the
Senate and are subject to the
approval of the Board of Trus
tees.
In case of a question of juris
diction, the power of decision
.rests with President Eric A.
Walker.
The bulk of the work of the
Senate is done by 14 standing
committees which study prob
problems in their particular fields
and submit reports for approval
at the monthly Senate meetings.
For example, the Senate Com
mittee on Courses of Study re
views all changes, made by col
leges in their courses and cur
riculums. The committee then
submits a final list of these
changes to the Senate for ap
proval.
Students sit as non-voting mem
bers -on those committees whose
decisions most directly affect
students such as calendar and
class schedule and student affairs,
The student appointments to
the calendar committee are usual
ly made by the Student Govern
ment Association president.
The SGA president and vice
president and the president of
the Women's Student Government
Association sit on the student af
fairs committee.
This committee serves as an
agency where student suggestions,
or complaints may be submitted
for committee consideration.

WRA Votes
To Continue,
Open House'
The open houses held each
Friday and Saturday night in
White Hall have been put on a
trial basis for the next month;
due to the small .number of
coeds participating in these
activities offered by the Wom
en's Recreation Association.
The executive board of WRA
passed this decision at a meeting
last night in an effort to deter
mine the future of both the open
houses and the proposed Co-Rec
Nights for men and women stu
dents.
WRA sponsors swimming, bowl
ing, table teiMis, fencing and
bridge for coeds on weekend
nights. Facilities are also avail
able for basketball, badminton
and volley ball. The open houses
will continue on the same basis
for one month• in the hope that
participation will increase.
Only teams consisting of sorori
ties, town groups or dorm living
units will be allowed to take part
in WRA intramurals. The board
ruled out the possibility of clubs
entering teams and intramurals
will continue according to the
rules stated in the handbook.
No decision was reached on
the WRA annual service project.
The purpose of this project is to
benefit the underprivileged chil
dren and families in the area.
