With very few exceptions, and these are mainly among the in- tellectual group and the persons highly active in campus affairs. the average Jewish student knows no non-Jews. He may make cas- ual friends in classes with non- Jews, but there is virtually no carryover outside the classroom.

He studies the same subjects for the most part. His social life follows the pattern laid down by the majority. He participates to a full extent in the extra-cur- ricular activity of the campus. He does not display feats of bril- liance in the classroom or on the basketball court to a greater de- gree than anyone else, nor is he left behind in the race for recog- nition. He is generally a fully partici- pating member of the campus community, depending, as in the case of his gentile fellow student, on his personality, brains and de- sire for advancement. The fact that he is a Jew plays a small role in his integration into community life. The role that his Jewishness plays is an internal one—that is, the fact of Jewishness determines his atti- tudes toward non-Jews; it tells him to a large degree where he may live, and with whom he can mingle socially. • • • WITH OTHER JEWS' THE AVERAGE JEW on this campus will live for the greater part of his college career only with other Jews. If he is a man, he will live in a fraternity house with other Jelvs. Non-Jewish fraternities will not admit him to their membership even' if he should desire it. He may live in a university dormitory, which by definition rommemommovb • 1 Le Shout) Toro Tikosevu • • MAYER'S BAKERY I• • • • Specializing in Birthday and : i Wedding Cakes and • All Kinds of Pastry : • • 12028 Dexter - TO 8-6113: motto wow motattmal l : The Officers and Directors tinned situation, certain obvious facts arise.

If he lives neither in a dorm nor a fraternity house, he will live in a boarding house which may or may not be mixed. If the Jewish student is a woman, she will, in nine cases out of 10, live in an all Jewish "organized house," subject to university reg- ulations, but run by private householders. On this particular campus, approximately 500 Jew- ish women live in such houses. Dorm facilities for women are similarly limited as for men.

He lives, eats and sleeps,. and walks to class only with Jews. The exception is the student who has an equal number of friends drawn from all groups, who has social contact with a diverse group of people, and who has close friends outside of his living quarters. The exceptional student will take an active part in campus affairs. But this group is small, —as it is in the general com- munity.
