Physical Development In July, 1960 upon consultation with the Campus Plan Advisory Committee, the Regents author- ized a study of the MedicalaCenter which would serve as a guide to future physical development. The planning report, released last De- cember, said "the Medical Center in the future will expand its facil- ities to a size significantly larger than its present size. "This growth will occur in vary- ing magnitudes in each of the three major functional areas of the Center; instruction, patient- care, and research. High priority should be given to instruction or academic medicine, strengthening the relationships between the Medical Center and Central Cam- pus," the report stated.

I I Entering Students Offered Scholarships, Grants-In-Aid By DONNA ROBINSON There are several kinds of fi- nancial aid available to under- graduate students through the University, including scholarships, awards, and grants-in-aid. The most numerous of these are the scholarships, some of which are offered through the Office of Scholarships to any University student who can meet the require- ments, with the remainder offered by the various schools and col- leges to students of each school. The general criteria for appli- cants include scholarship, finan- cial need, and character, with oth- er requirements, such as residence in a certain area or field of study added to some specific scholar- ships. Require Residence Most also require at least one semester's residence at the Uni- versity, but over 600 are available to entering freshmen. Most of these are offered through the Re- gents Alumni program, which has awarded about 500 scholarships for this fall, Assistant Dean of Men Ivan W. Parker reported. Regents Alumni scholarships are offered to one student from each accredited high school in Michi- gan, provided that a qualified stu- dent applies, and 175 are awarded at large to any Michigan student. Another program available to entering freshmen as well as oth- ers offers the Laverne Noyes Scholarships. Through this grant, financially needy students who can prove blood descendancy from a World War I United States Ar- my or Navy veteran can receive full tuition scholarships. Each of the schools and col- leges in the University also offer a number of scholarships through their own offices. There are also many awards given both through the scholar- ship office and the individual schools. These, awards are gener- ally given in recognition of some specific accomplishment and may or may not carry a cash prize. Among these awarIs are the James B. Angell Scholar Awards for students who maintain an all- A average for two semesters in a row, the Wendy Owen Memorial Award for members of The Daily editorial or sports staffs who "have been soundly constructive to the University community through The Daily," the University Band Merit Award for outstanding members of the Marching and Concert Bands, the Jane Higbie Award for A & D students who demonstrate originality in their work, and the Avery and Jule Hop- wood Prizes, awarded on the basis of a creative writing contest. Grants-in-Aid Grants - in - aid are payments made to meet emergencies which would otherwise force the student to leave the University. The main requirement here is the financial need, and the only scholastic re- quirement is that the student is eligible to remain at the Univer- sity. The range of grade-point averages for recipients of grants- in-aid runs from about 2.2 to 2.8, Dean Parker noted. "While there is no legal obliga- tion to repay grants-in-aid, there is a moral obligation," he said.
