PAGE TWO THE MICHIGAN DAILY WEDNESDAY, 14 APRIL 1965 PAGE TWO THE MIChIGAN DAILY WEDNESDAY, 14 APRIL 196~ IBM Interviewer Teaching Fellowships Increase UMSEU To Expand Economic Activities Explains Si EDITOR'S NOTE: This is the second in a two-part.series on the Bureau of Appointments and Oc- cupational Information. By ILENE SIEGLER This year over 1400 companies and more than 600 educational institutions will visit the Univer- sity offering over 81,000 jobs to University graduates. Through the Bureau of Ap- pointments and Occupational In- formation, company representa- tives can interview prospective employees and students can in turn get information about the company. Branch Manager of Interna- tional Business Machines John A. Lloyd explained what a com- panya looks for when selecting students. "I see the interview situation as a two-way proposition, in which the student is trying to sell him- self to the company and the in- terviewer is trying to sell his firm to the student," Lloyd said. He is interested in hiring a per- son, not an auomaton, to fill a position. The purpose of the in- terview is to find out as much about the individual as the inter- viewer possibly can. Lloyd sees a year of an individual's life as more important than the invest- ment the company would make in him. tandards The interviewer notices many things. In order to help categor- ize a person, Lloyd asks "leading questions" and watches for the way a person will react to the situation. He notices such things as ap- pearance, alertness, enthusiasm, poise, intelligence, maturity and leadership, which he feels are im- portant indications of a person's character. Lloyd's questions all lead to- ward his major preoccupation, "Does the student have the abil- ity to think logically?" "I expect the student to partic- ipate in his interview as honestly as possible," Lloyd said. If the first impression is a successful one, usually a second interview and a set of specific exams is ar- ranged for the student. Lloyd al- so expressed the idea of having prospective employees spend some time on the job to get a better idea of what the work involves. Though the interviews are pri- marily for graduating seniors, Lloyd expressed a willingness to speak to any student interested in IBM, regardless of his year, to help him decide if the interest is well founded and profitable. Lloyd sees the Bureau as an excellent opportunity for both the student and the employer to make the best possible choice.

The University at present has investments in many American businesses, such as the Alabama Power Company and American Telephone and Telegraph, Bluestone said. UMSEU is exploring the possibility of al- ternative investments, including investment in student services. If the University were to invest in housing, it could bring lower costs to the students. To Reduce Prices UMSEU will negotiate with the campus book stores to reduce prices or give students a discount. At the same time, Bluestone said they will ask the University to sponsor a bookstore in a Univer- sity building. They are also work- ing with the state Legislature in the hope of receiving appropria- tions for this project. A UMSEU committee, under direction of Gail Smiley, '67, is working on a job survey booklet this summer. It will include the types of jobs available, their pay scale, the number of hours a stu- dent must work and the job pre- requisites. It will contain advice for the student on where to go and whom to see for a specific job. According to Bluestone, they will also attempt to persuade the University to build nonsupervised apartments similar to those in Oxford. f_ In the German department, the teaching fellows meet weekly and are directed by two faculty sup- ervisors. In mathematics, begin- ning teaching fellows are given an instructive manual and are associated with a mentor, an older faculty member who can lead assistance. The chemistry depart- ment conducts a one week train- ing session in recitation and lab procedure. administration's position on stu- dent economic welfare for which UMSEU has recently been press- ing. UMSEU is planning a full sum- mer program. It will attempt to bring off-campus wages up to the federal and University minimum wage of $1.25 per hour. It plans to use direct action, such as picketing, if negotiations bring no results. UMSEU will also do intensive research in the area of student econmic welfare, such as housing rents and book, food and clothing prices.

This project is sponsored by t h e American Friends Service Center. One con- clusion of the committee was that opinion toward China in the U.S. is not realistic. America's at t i t u d e toward China is negative; he said. This is because each country finds it difficult to form realistic images of the other-a factor partly due to the fact that they belong to different streams of history and also because of political distortion of the information system. Boulding explained that U.S. re- assurance that Americans realize the Chinese Communist govern- ment is stable is needed to bring about a rapproachment. He added that the U.S. will have to come to terms over the problem of Taiwan. To the Chinese the problem is much like the British support of the South in the War Between the States, he said. Testing Reality Other research being done on testing reality, involves what hap- pens in a closed unit of society when there is no means of com- paring what an individual is told with reality. Merril Jackson, research social psychologist at the conflict center, is working on a theory that would also explain what happens when channels of communication are available to this close group. Jackson's research is concerned with studying aspects of society which Jackson says are not as in- tensively studied as other aspects. These include northern, urban Negro ghettos, state mental hos- pitals and state prisons. Social Units Jackson is interested in social units which are closed to outside influence. These units are com- posed so that there is no way to check a conception of reality with other :influences. Jackson illustrated this with an example of a mental hospital. In the ideal situation patients are encouraged not to doubt, he said. They are taught to accept certain ideas of how things are. Eventual- ly they come to believe them. Admittedly the system has to be closed for a long period of time, he said. However, the way this situation operates, it is al- most as if people must have a "story" merely describing what they take for granted in order to live "normally." To support his theory, Jackson described an experiment run on sensory deprivation. Subjects in this experiment were placed in a room which had no windows and only necessary furniture. Meals were given at irregular times. Stu- dents used in this experiment had expectations of staying in these conditions for the entire summer as a form of a summer job. The longestrany student stayed in the situation was two days, Jackson explained. One of the first things that happened was the subjects lost all sense of time. Next, subjects began to have hallucinations. The hallucination is significant, Jack- son explained, because it was this which gave the subject a meaning or "story" of what he was doing in there. Subjects made up these stories to make their life mean- ingful. Sensory deprivation tests show, Jackson said, that if things were all the same, then a person has a tendency to make them randomly different. The same effect is in- duced if you keep things com- pletely irregular; the individual will give a regularity or meaning to random happenings. If an in- dividual continues to live in this type of situation, he beings to lose touch with reality. In a group deprivation situa- tion, Jackson continued, rumors start. If a story is lacking, assum- ing that people need to under- stand their life, then people will. eventually start to believe these rumors even if it is contrary to their own interests. Special Periods Each course, except English 123 and 220, requiring a specialj examination, is assigned two examination code letters. If one is preferred by the department, it is in boldface type; students may elect the other only if a conflict occurs and special permission is secured from the department.
