round in Port Huron. There are mon-
etary prizes for those advancing to
the late rounds.

TRADITIONS
Continued from page 3
This year it began when a horde
of psuedo-Irish pugilists (Notre
Damiens) descended upon Ann
Arbor to watch their warriors get
disgraced on the gridiron. As bars
turned out the opposing fans at 2
a.m. on the morning of the game,
the police dispersed them with their
magic gas rather than have blither-
ing drunks collide with each other.
God forbid.
The Ann Arbor Police Depart-
ment's next demonstration came as
the Michigan basketball team lost
the national championship to a
whiny team of blue Satan-worship-
pers (Duke). The police made a
disgruntled crowd disappear once
again. The crowd was so impressed
they sent the riot police the returns
on their empty bottles ... aerially.
Just something to keep in mind
if you ever join a large crowd
which might include some ram-
bunctious hooligans like, say, Hash
Bash: The police would rather have
you inhale tear gas.
All of the cults, clans and myths
here at the University are impossi-
ble to describe completely. Some-
how you will find your niche
among them. When you do, who
knows, you might even have some
time to contemplate a little "Artes,
Scientia, and Veritas."

LIBRARIES

topic," Westbrook added.
The Preservation Department
maintains the University Library's
collection. Carla Montori, head of
the Preservation Division, ex-
plained that once material is pur-
chased for the library, her depart-
ment is responsible for keeping it in
usable condition.
There are several threats to the
lifespan of library material, Montori
said. One of the most severe prob-
lems, she said, is dealing with book
quality. As the paper gets old, she
said, it gets brittle and cracks; if left
unchecked, information could be
lost.
Materials also wear out from
use, Montori explained.
"The way a book or material is
handled has a profound and direct
effect on the life of that material,"

she said.
"Preservation is a major issue at
this library," Riggs said, adding that
the University has the third largest
preservation department staff in the
United States.
Space is another major problem.
"We're storing over one million
volumes in the Buhr building,"
Riggs said. "We have to seriously
consider what we're going to do."
Work will begin in January to
add a 30,000 square feet to the
UGLi. In addition, all of the science
libraries - physics, astronomy,
math, chemistry, and, natural
sciences - will be moved into the
UGLi.
"In a sense, it would be like two
libraries in one," Riggs said.
Oh, and those weather reports?
They've been inscribed by students
on the slats of the heaters in the
study rooms in the graduate library
stacks. Right next to the roommate
complaints.

A budding young basketball star goes up for a shot during an IM
basketball game. Freddie Hunter began his athletics career at the
University playing IM basketball. After being "discovered", he went on to
become captain of Michigan's men's basketball team, which made it to
the NCAA Championship game under his leadership.

Counseling Services
Welcomes New Students
Welcome to your new home. We hope you find the
University and campus life all that you want it to be. There are
times when you might feel the need to speak with someone about
a concern or problem. If that occurs, we hope that you consider
speaking with one of our staff members.
Here are some common questions that students have
about our services:
1. Who uses Counseling Services? Why?
All students run into difficulties at college from time to
time. Both undergrad and graduate students have found our
services of value in order to discuss problems or concerns ranging

lems.
2. Are the things we talk about confidential?
Yes, they are. However, there may be extenuating cir-
cumstances where confidentiality cannot be maintained. A coun-
selor will discuss this in more depth with you during your initial
visit.
3. What is your professional staff like?
Our staff includes a friendly experienced group of people
who have been trained as clinical social workers, psychologists,
and psychiatrists.
4. I'm a member of a minority group. Would I be able to speak
with someone who is sensitive to my group's perspective at your
office ?
Our staff is experienced and sensitive to the demands of
the diverse student body found at Michigan. The staff at Counsel-
ing Services reflects the racial and ethnic make-up of the student
body.
5. Are there self-help groups available?
