EDITOR'S NOTE: This .Is the
first in a two-part series on the
Bureau of Appointments and Oc-
cupational Information.
By ILENE SIEGLER
Every year many students leav-
ing the University to enter the
business world might have taken
advantage of the Bureau of Ap-
pointments and Occupational In-
formation to help them get *their
jobs.
"Both the demand for college
graduates and the salaries being
offered to them are up this year

over last," Evart W. Ardis, direc-
tor of the Bureau, said recently.
"Recruiters uniformly r e p o r t
finding University seniors intelli-
gent, informed and ready to as-
sume responsibilities. These same
employers invariably praised the:
University for the excellence of
its placement services and facil-:
ities," Ardis said.
They all report that the Bur-
eau's offices and staff, on the
third floor of the Student Activ-
ities Building, are among thej
finest in the nation.

The Bureau serves as a link In Summer
between the student and his fu-
ture. It can help him find a

Phi Sigma Sigma Breaks
Ground for Future House

By LESLEY FINKELMAN
"For four years we've dreamed,
planned and been within a stone's
throw of having a new house for
Phi Sigma Sigma. Today signi-
fies our dream becoming reality,"
Linda Kitman, '66, president of
Phi Sigma Sigma sorority for
1965-66, said Sunday as she be-
gan the ground-breaking ceremo-
ny for the house.
Located on Washtenaw between
the University Lutheran Chapel
and Collegiate Sorosis sorority,
the new house "will truly be a
part of the Greek system on the
University campus,' 'Miss Kitman
said. "For six years we have lived
on the other side of campus, some
of the girls residing in our old
house and some in the Phi Sig-
ma Sigma annex. Finally we will
live under one roof," she added.
Dr. Herman Jacobs,. director of
the B'nai B'rith Hillel Founda-
tion in Ann Arbor, blessed the
house. Using a gold shovel, House
Director Mrs. LaFerne Newell, Pa-
tronness Mrs. Samuel Danto, and
Mrs. Nancy Barr ,president of the
housing corporation for Phi Sig-
ma Sigma, together overturned a
shovel-full of dirt.
Mrs. Barr then introduced Eu-
gene E. Kurtz of Kurtz-"Construc-
tion Company, Ann Arbor, who is
in charge of all construction, and
architects King and Lewis of De-
troit.
"We hope you will be happy in
the environment we've created,"
King said. The drawing of the
proposed house shows a modern
brick building tiered with two lev-
els. The length of the living room,
in the front of the house, is en-
tirely glassed. The numerous
rooms also have big glass win-

dows. With the house set back
from the street, the front of the
lot will be used for a yard and,
parking facilities.
President of Panhellenic Asso-
ciation Laura Fitch, '66, conclud-
ed the ceremony by saying, "I'd
like to extend my official and per-
sonal congratulations to the mem-
bers of Phi Sigma Sigma and all
those people who have made this
ground-breaking possible."
A reception was held at the
house on North Ingalls after-
wards .
If the construction progresses
as planned, Phi Sigma Sigma
hopes to see its members living in
the new house by this fall.
City To Honor'
Viet Nam Dead
Citizens and students of the
Ann Arbor-Washtenaw area have
been invited to participate in a
community service remembering
all those who have died and are
dying in the Viet Nam conflict.
The open invitation was issued
this past week by Msgr. Warren
Peek, pastor of St. Thomas
Church; Rev. Hoover Rupert,
president of the Ann Arbor-Wash-
tenaw Council of Churches; Rabbi
Harold S. White, Beth Israel Con-
gregation and Judge Francis L.
O'Brien, chairman, Ann Arbor
Chapter of the National Confer-
ence of Christians and Jews.
The service will be held at 12:30
p.m. Wednesday at the City Hall
Plaza. In case of rain, the service
will be held in the council
chamber.

Issues Bulletins
For the graduating senior, the
Bureau issues bulletins listing all
,the business concerns and educa-
tional institutions interviewing at
the University that week. These
list the positions open and the
requirements for the job.
At the beginning of the semes-
cer a master list is also compiled
of all of the companies - for-
eign and domestic, private and
governmental - whose repre-
sentatives will be at the Univer-
sity. The Bureau also mails this
information to registered stu-
dents and alumni.
Company Information
In addition to their own bulle-
tins, the Bureau provides infor-
mation prepared by the compan-
ies themselves, pamphlets des-
cribing the company's organiza-
tion, philosophy, physical layoutI
and job opportunities.
Students may register with the
Bureau at any time, even after
graduation. The Bureau then
prepares a file of personal data,
transcript and references. The
student may use this file any
number of times and may keep it
active for the rest of his life.
Teacher Placement
In addition to placing students
in companies and graduate
schools, the Bureau has a teacher
placement division. For students
who cannot visit the schools they
are applying to, the Bureau main-
tains a special filing system of
detailed information on almost
every school district in the na-
tion.
For alumni seeking employ-
ment the Bureau will mail job
opportunities to the alumni and
their resumes to the schools.
For the undergraduate who
has no specific vocational objec-
tives, the Bureau offers profes-
sional career counselors to work
with these students on an indi-
vidual basis.
The Bureau is now 36 years old,
though the teacher placement
service has been in operation
since 1898.
"We wish more of our students
would drop by to get acquainted
with our staff and avail them-
selves of our services" Ardis said.

tal in nature and directed towards
small and informal groups. Diffi-
culty in planning stems from the
uncertainty about the interests of
the students who will be on cam-
pus for the summer trimester.
"In the past, large indoor con-'
certs and big-name speakers have
failed to attract a large numberI
of people.
"Although we are expecting a
higher percentage of foreign and
graduate students, we are not aim-
ing our program specifically at
these people. We feel that under-
graduates will probably have
more time and inclination to par-
ticipate in planned activities,"
Chaffee added.
The program will include jazz
concerts on the Diag by local
groups, street dances at the cor-
ners of Liberty and South State,
an open house at the Hatchers'
and a one night film festival.
UAC is also planning coffee
hours with writers on the campus.
Hyde park speeches will be fea-
tured on the Diag where professors
are invited to speak to interested
students and passers-by.
"In our summer programming,
UAC will be concerned with the
student on campus looking for
leisure time activity. We realize
that they don't want to become
involved in time consuming activi-
ties and we will plan accordingly,"
Chaffee said.

By NANCY SUNDHEIM
"The recent proposal by the
Blue Ribbon Committee for a Cen-
ter for the Improvement of Re-
search on Learning and Teaching
was a good recommendation,"
Stanford Ericksen, director of the
Center for Research on Learning
and Teaching (CRLT), said.
"Especially significant in the
report was the recognition that
improvement in teaching must be:
more than an exhortation for
funds and good intentions."
The Blue Ribbon proposal call-
ed for a center to be supported by
the state which would conduct
various types of research on ways
to improve teaching at the Uni-
versity and at other schools in the
state.
'U' Center
The CRLT, established in 1962,
was actually a forerunner of this
plan. The present proposal sug-
gests that this new center be a
clearing house for information in
the area of teaching, as well as a
place where research would be
conducted to find new and better
methods.
"Our center acts as a clearing
house now, sending out memos
to all the faculty at the University
and to most of the schools in the
state," Ericksen pointed out. "We
also conduct research and devel-
opmental programs with individ-
ual teachers and departments."
State Level
The proposed center would be a
state level of the facility that
presently exists. "Since the center
would be supported by the state,,
it would be committed to support
an aspect of higher education
that has been neglected-namely

research on teaching," Ericksen
said. "We spend millions on re-
search, millions on teaching and
a minimal amount on improve-
ment."
The center would initiate re-
search but actual programs would
be carried out by the individual
schools. The information accumu-
lated at each institution could
then be disseminated throughout
the state.
Decentralizing
In explaining the reason behind'
this decentralization of research
Ericksen pointed out that there
is a "definite limit to the actual
improvement that a centralized
agency can do. The ultimate suc-
cess depends on its effectiveness
in the classroom and this is where
much of the research must be
conducted."
With state funds, there would
be more money available for the
use of technology in the class-
room. Such devices as programmed
learning and television would free
the teacher from the routine pro-
cedure of giving factual informa-
tion in lectures.
"Part of the funds would be ear-
marked especially for improved
teaching methods such as semi-
nars a n d tutorial programs,"
Ericksen said. "It could also beI
used at a higher level to improve
the preparation of graduate stu-I
dents as leaders in discussion
groups "
