The question of what academic
field a pre-law student should ma-!
jor in brought differing opinions
from law professors and pre-law
advisors in a panel discussion yes-j
terday on "Undergraduate Prep-
aration for Law School."
Prof. Lionel Laing, advisor for
pre-legal studies, moderated the
panel- discussion in the opening
session of the conference for pre-
law advisors. Included on the"
panel were Prof. Whitmore Gray
of the Law School, George Bouch-
Panhel To Give
Pledge Grants
For Initates
Panhellenic Association voted
yesterday to award loans to girls
who wish to pledge a sorority but'
cannot afford the initiation fees.
The loans, ranging from $50 to
$100, will be dispensed on the
basis of need to 10-20 girls next
year. They will, be one year loans
to be re-paid by spring of the fol-
lowing year so that the money can
be lent again at the next rush,
according to Panhel President
Patricia Elkins, '64.
Marsha Marcotte, chairman of
the rushing counselors, will handle
the -interviews of prospective can-
didates for the loans.
In other business,-Panhel de-
cided to send a letter to the Pur-
due Panhellenic - Association in
reply to a letter received.
The Purdue letter had asked if
the "deterioration" in Greek or-
ganizationsat the uTniversity was
due to the University's member-
ship in the United States National
Students Association, which has
taken a strong'stand against dis-
crimination in student groups.
The reply states that the Greek
system is not deteriorating, and
that in accordance with the 1959
Regents bylaw, Panhel also con-
demns discrimination.
The 1959 bylaw 2.14 prohibits
Jniversity discrimination against
any person because of race. It fur-
ther notes that the University shall
work for the elimination of dis-
crimination in student organiza-
tions.

er, Grand Rapids attorney, and
Martin Dickenson, '64L, editor of
the Michigan Law Review.
"A pre-law concentration in the
political sciences is greatly help-
ful because law is intricately in-
volved with the political life of
a community," Prof. Laing said.
To support his statement, he
cited the fact that many judges,
mayors and other officials are
lawyers.
In backing a program including
the social sciences, Prof. Laing
said that, "Unfortunately, many
students don't have a well-devel-
oped social sonscience before col-
lege."
Prof. Dickenson andwGray felt,
however, that pre-law students
should be allowed to pursue any
field of concentration they choose
to, including fine arts.
No Prediction Possible
jProf. Gray, a foreign language
major as an undergraduate, stress-
ed the fact that there is no way
of predicting just what the stu-
dent will have to know once he
is actually practicing law. He
noted that new areas of work
such as the Common Market re-
quire that lawyers know modern
languages.
Prof. Gray also .suggested that
the meanings of words and the
structure of sentences can be
learned effectively through study-
ing foreign languages.
"It makes no difference which
field is studied as long as the
student acquires skills in rigorous,'
logical analysis from the 'chosen
field," Prof. Dickenson said.
Probe Clear Prose
All the panelists agreed that
the skill of logical analysis and
the ability to write clear, exposi-
tory prose led the list of require-
ments for a successful career in
law.
Boucher suggested that these
writing skills be sought in English
composition courses.hDickenson
noted as a fault of the composi-
tion courses the fact that they
stress creative writing too much.
The Conference for Pre-Law Ad-
visors is being sponsored by the
pre-legal studiesoffice of the lit-
erary college and the student af-
fairs committee.
Summer Opportunities
Summer jobs and extra-curricu-
lar activities were cited as op-

T h e business administration
school will undertake a survey of
its students' housing needs in
order to explore possibilities of.
constructing a living center sim-
ilar to the law quadrangle, Wil-
liam Moran, assistant to the dean
of the Law School, said yesterday.
The survey is being instigated
with "the conviction that such
housing is a good idea from an
educational point -of view." It will
seek to determine "what types of
housing would be feasible."
The fundamental idea behind
the propose dcenter is similar to
that of the law quad, he noted.
The survey, in the form of 9
three-page questionnaire, will be
sent to both single and married
students in early November. From
the differences in housing needs
specified by married and single
students, the questionnaire will
seek to discover the different type
of facilities which they might re-
quire.
"From our point of view, the
survey is a definite step toward
construction," Moran noted. Prob-
lems such as financing the pro-
ject and obtaining the necessary

property are still to be handled
by t'he University.
It is assumed that the question-
naires will be returned by late
November and the findings com-
piled by early January, he said.
Send Yamagiwa
To Culture Parley
Prof. Joseph K. Yamagiwa,
chairman of the Far Eastern stud-
ies department, will be one of the
American delegates to the Second
United States-Japanese Confer-
ence on Cultural and Educational
Interchange, beginning today in
Washington.
Topics to be discussed at the
conference include the interchange
of educational television programs,
the transmission of scholarly
thought from Japan to the United
States, performing arts exchanges,
and area studies of each other in
United States and Japanese educa-
tional institutions.
Others include John D. Rocke-
feller and Arthur Schlesinger.

PROF. WHITMORE GRAY
'... undergraduate program

portunities for a pre-law student
to broaden his knowledge of Amer-
ican life. Some of the panelists
considered a summer spent in
travel, factory work or special
study as beneficial as a job as
clerk in a law office.
During the discussion period,
the visiting undergraduate advisors
described their difficulties in as-
sessing the effectiveness of their
counselling.
They requested that law schools
send progress reports to the under-
graduate schools indicating how
the undergraduate school might
improve its counselling.

gram is a panel discussion at 10
