PAGE SIX International e oins Work When a freshman first arrives at the University, he is often bewildered and confused by the customs and atmosphere of college life. But the problem is compounded for the inter national student arriving in the United States for the first time. In order to help the international student adapt to his new college environment, a Brother- Sister program is being set up to go into operation this fall, Gayle Larson said last night. The program is one part of a series of activities being sched uled by the Undergraduate Stu dent Government Committee on International Student A f fair s, chaired by Miss Larson. In the Brother-Sister program, headed by Charles Baer, an Amer ican student, will correspond with an international student during the summer, When the interna tional student arrives at Lhe Uni versity, he will be met by his penpal who will show him around and help him orient himself to the campus and its customs, Miss Larson said. A SECOND program that the committee has undertaken is aid ing international students in ob taining summer jobs. A subcom mittee, headed by Ersin Eti, is now contacting international stu dents to determine which students are interested in summer jobs in Pennsylvania and other neigh boring states. Tours of six business and in dustrial firms are also being ar ranged, Miss Larson said.

"We are setting up our budget and student quota on the assumption that we will get it and are planning to admit 1,000 more students for next fall," he said. Earlier in his talk, he had noted that the University's long range plans call for expansion of the Commonwealth campuses and only a 35 per cent increase in undergraduate University Park enrollment. The graduate enroll ment on this campus should at least be doubled. however. Walker mentioned other prob lems which he termed as defi nitely "open for discussion." Among those were whether or not to make certain important fields into full departments (such as computer science), how to en large the emphasis on basic sci ences such as biology, whether to increase the foreign student enrollment and how to make the best educational use of the resi dence hall system. But after weighing the Uni versity's- good points against its problems, Walker concluded: "In short, I•think with many others that we are doing very well."

Wiegand, director of the physical plant, said yesterday. WIEGAND SAID that all con tractors allow for a certain num ber .of "off days" caused by in clement weather, especially in winter, when they are devising their timetables of operation. • Thus, he said, the two weeks of work which were lost on the Humanities complex in Hort Woods, the Recreation Building Annex, the new East and Pol lock residence halls and the elec trical engineering extension, will be compensated for by the addi: tion of extra days in the con tractors' schedules.
