Congratulations
A community of scholars is the ideal university community,
although often times superior academic achievement is subjected
to lesser distinctions.
To compensate for this, the University will offer its formal
congratulations today to the hundreds of students who have
excelled in scholarship during the past year.
Yet the annual Honors Convocation at Hill Auditorium this
morning can be but a small tribute to the students who have
maintained the high academic tradition that is the University
of, Michigan.
Today will climax a full college career of scholarship for
many. It may be the 'beginning of the same for others and per-
haps it may serve to spur those capable of outstanding scholar-
ship to as yet unattained heights.
Today, also, for the seventh consecutive year, The IDaily
presents its Honors Edition in recognition of both excellence in
scholarship and extra'-curricular activities. Every effort has been
made to 'include *the- names of those who have distinguished
themselves at 'the University over the past year.
Space limitation, however, has made it impossible to include
the members of all the many campus organizations. Thus, only
the officers of these organizations have been included in this
supplement.
The Michigan Daily staff congratulates the list of those to
be honored today for a job well done and an, equally sincere
wish for higher attainments in the future.

Sponsor Trips
The various departments of the
University are submitting name
of professors from which SGC wil
select the final list ahd sponsor
their trip to the campus.
Another major project of the
committee this year has been tc
place students on faculty com-
mittees dealing with problems o:
student interest.
AnSGC committee also has beer
created to review the purpose and
r centralization of counseling pro.
cedure. Suggestions include a pro-
posal to introduce "peer" counsel.
ing, to allow juniors and seniors
to sign their own elections, cards
to have better training for present
counselors and to hire full-time
professional counselors.
Education Elsewhere
SGC is also interested in edu-
cational affairs around the world.
A resolution was recently sent to
Cuba encouraging the Cuban gov-
ernment to re-open the univer-
sities closed during the revolution.
Another resolution was sent to
South Africa protesting a recently-
passed education bill which would
involve discriminatory admissions
practices to the South African uni-
versities. .
Course synopsis notebooks have
been prepared and placed in the
counselors' offices by SGC this
term in conjunction, with the lit-
erary college announcement com-
mittee.
Rush Evaluation
As an outgrowth of the fall
rush question, an orientation study
committee has been formed to
assess the first semester fresh-
man's participation in activities
and to co-ordinate the orientation
programs of the student org'aniza-
tions to the best advantage of the
freshman.
The report and recommenda-
tions of the committee will be ex-
ceedingly broad, Al Haber, '60,
said. The question of fall rush
versus spring rush will be con-
sidered again when the report is
submitted in light of the findings
andk recommendations that it
makes.

STRENGTH-The stately buildings of the Law Quadrangle portray the quiet strength of higher learning. In the quadrangle, the 'concepts
of justice and equality through law are stressed to the utmost. The law library is one of the finest in the United States housing briefs and
court decisions which have influenced the course of human events. Lawyers and students can also study in the Lawyer's Club located in the
quadrangle. The large and well-furnitured lounge adapts itself to the tone of study and learning found throughout the quadrangle.

Columbia University English Prof.
Marjorie Nicolson in 1947.
Wellesley Graduate
Prof. Clapp, a 1930 graduate of
Wellesley, is the second' alumna-
president in the school's history.
Graduatiing with a Bachelor of
Arts degree in economics, Prof.
Clapp became an English and his-
tory teacher at Todhunter and
tDalton schools, in New York and
stayed until 1941. Meanwhile, she
found time to get her Master of
Arts degree from Columbia Uni-
versity in 1937.
From 1941 to 1944, she taught at'
the City College of New York,
where she was the first wohan
on its history faculty.
With the outbreak of World
War II, Prof. Clapp joined the
staff of the British Broadcasting
Corporation's New York office,
working there in 1942 and 1943 as
a researcher.
Subsequently she worked with
the Red Cross before accepting the
position of history teacher for the
1945-56 session of the New Jersey
College for Women. Her next po-
sition, was instructor, in general
sessions courses at Columbia Uni-
versity. '
Promoted to assistant professor,
she spent her 1947-48 tern at
Brooklyn College.
Submits Dissertation
In 1946, she submitted as the
dissertation for her doctorate iin
philosophy at Colulmbia "Forgot-
ten First Citizen-John Bigelow."
At the suggestion of her profes-
sor, she had reconstructed the
life of a 19th century New York
citizen, %author, journalist, politi-
cian and diplomat.
On May 3, 1958, Prof. Clapp still
had no idea that her publishers,
had submitted the biography to a
literary evaluation 'committee.
That day she was awarded the
$500 Pulitzer Prize for biography.
Then only 39 years old and one,
in a field of 150 candidates, Prof.
Clapp soon found herself retur-
ing to her alma mater as presi-
