WUS is currently holding a-campus-wide campaign to raise funds that are used to help foreign students and' universities meet their basic educational• needs on a "self-help, you pay-some-too" basis. According to Richard Noth (11th-labor management relations-Philadelphia), th e WUS drive is' an operation situated in col leges and universities around the world. "This thing is really big in a lot of American universities," said Noth, "it's com parable to our Spring Week." Education Campaign "Penn State students just don't know what WUS is,'•' continued Noth. "This is the only campus-wide campaign offered to Penn State and it is the best way for students to directly help their peers in foreign universi ties and to fulfill their responsibility in the world university community," he said. Some of the activities that various cam pus groups have begun for .WUS week in clude a carnival in Pollock area where one booth gives students a chance to water-bag the resident counselors. In the residence halls WUS volunteers•have•gone on "penny.raids," asking for all the pennies that roommates can scrape together. University Greeks have been especially active in this year's campaign. Girls from Phi Sigma Sigma and Alpha Kappa Alpha sororities have been shining shoes down stairs in the Hetzel Union Building, while other sororities have volunteered .to serve dinners at fraternity houses this week with proceeds going to WUS. _ . "It's not all giving out of the pocket that we're looking for, but some kind of involve ment too," said Noth. The funds collected cover a wide range of needs such as food and medicine, books and supplies, dormitories, classrooms, and infirmaries; The contributions also provide ,student job opportunities as• part of the self For Results-Use Collegian Classifieds WI N KY'S RESTAURANTS are offering special discount prices to: • Churches • Parties •Social Groups • Picnics Free Delivery For Information Call 237-2739 or 364.1600 slte &them and gi p s J(appa Stria wish to con g ratulate sheir &titer gad crawrence opt 4ein g efeC ted SecretarrsreaillreP DR.

Next week's ceremonies will include a speech by the U. S.

Among them are study cubi cles which provide each student with his own office; multidiscipline ,teaching laboratories which give each student his own laboratory space available around the clock and calendar for the two years he studies the basic sciences; faculty-student interchange, one of the three lounges located on each floor to promote informal dialogue between students and teachers; a basic science department's faculty offices and research laboratories, and the central animal quarters which has holding, surgical and laboratory areas for animals lielp principle adopted by W.US. The history of WU'S. goes back to the early 1920's when American students sent money and supplies to:EurOpean students in order to help them further their education after World War I. The organization gradually widened its scope and in the 1940'5, they launched a drive to stop the spread of tuberculosis. "TB to students in foreign' countries is like mono nucleosis to American students," 'said Noth: "Since then WUS has established a' program of chest X-rays and has been building in firmaries at schools that need them," he added. Charily Fund On this campus, WUS was part of the Campus Fund under the sponsorship of the student government. This Fund was similar to the United Fund in that there was one big drive during the school year and the contributions were divided up among the various charities. In 1958 the student government aban doned the idea, claiming that soliciting funds was not part of its obligations. "WUS then moved to an inter-religious committee to help with its drive," said Noth. "Even though WUS is not politically or re ligiously aligned, I suppose it *as a natural inclination for a committee like this to help out," he added. Growth Hindered When the committee dissolved last year, WUS was left on its own. Noth feels that a lack of continuity over the years has hin dered the growth Of WUS. "This campaign has appeal and can get money if the stu dents knew what it involved," he said. "But it's not the students' fault that they don't know about WUS. I'm not accusing them of being apathetic because I don't think they are," continued Noth. "This year we want to set a precedent for WUS," said Noth, To achieve continuity a committee called the Faculty Friends 9f WUS has been formed. The second part of the program is the campus-wide campaign that is going on nriw.

CPA. A CPA has to grasp the essentials of many different fields, and have the independence to form objective opiniohs about them. He's more in demand than ever before, by corporations, non-profit agencies, government bodies at all levels. Why? Because the increasing complexity of business requires new concepts of fact gathering, problem-solving, and communication of economic information, The CPA, for example, is one of the leaders in planning new ways to use computer systems. He might also. be called upon to weigh the relatiVe merits of social programs in terms of available resources, helping to shape an urban renewal program. So if problems intrigue you, and if you have aptitude for concentrated, meticulous, creative thinking, you might make a good,CPA—in a pub lic accounting firm, in industry, education or government. At some point, you might even de cide to form a firm of ybur own. Talk with your faculty advisor. He can tell you about the courses that could lead toward a CPA certificate soon after graduation. Or you can do graduate work. You can also learn about, the work of a CPA in a booklet we'll be glad to send you. Drop a note or card to: Dept.
