HONORS EDITION 1Mw~ta~ :4Iaait HONORS EDITION Div awr.om.. 4 bl FAGE ANN ARBOR, MICHIGAN, FRIDAY, MAY 8, 1959 qnt p' '31 ,L.C r 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.

Among the many programs sponsored by the League this year were Hyde Park and a series of book reviews given by ,University professors.

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.

'60 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.

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.

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.

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.
