Sunday Matinee: 3pm ' Here it is, the Michigan Daily's hand- book on how to cope with life at the Big 'U.' it is designed, we hope, to acquaint incoming people with the rigors, frustra- tions, and joys of University bureaucracy, who's who in academia, current issues on and off campus, quirks in the community, what to do on a Saturday night, and hap- penings around town. The supplement is divided into six sec- tions-General News, Academics, Sports, Culture, Community, and Student Life. Read it and we hope that you will enjoy it. However, despite the blood, sweat, tears and sleepless nights that went into this publication there are a few errors which should be noted. Check the Today Column on page one of this section for a list of corrections. And there are a few people to be thank.

Hope- fully it will help strangers to the city find their way around town. And oh yes. It wouldn't have been pos-1 sible without the Daily's regular spring and summer staff who wrote all of our articles. Without the supplement, they would have been merely underpaid. But with the supplement, they were underpaid and overworked. --The Supplement Staff re complicated Editor: Robert Meachum Asst.

'en most schools first year, with about 60 per cent graduating in four years. Minorities are given special preference, though there are no specific questions on the appli- cation to determine the race of the applicant. Usually the admission coun- selors determine a studen's race based on their knowledgel of the schools the student comes from. In addition, the question: concerning the Opportunity Pro- gram is to pinpaint minority students. SWAIN ALSO indicated that an optional section to the ap- olication, asking the race of the applicant, will be added for next year.' In addition to this, a cualified minority student will be cn- sidered even if an application is received past the February 1, deadline. Students f r o m out-orstate have a better chance of being admitted if they have relatives: who attended the University.
