THE MICHIGAN DAILY 1 JAILY OFFICIAL BULLETIN I f Volume I THURSDAY, JANUARY 13, 1921. Number 73. To the Members of the University: At the meeting of the Board of Regents on Jan. 7, it was decided here- after to hold the regular meetings of the Board on the last Friday of the month beginning with March. The next regular meeting therefore will oc- cur on Friday, Feb. 4, but the March meeting will not be held until March 25. If the business of the University requires it a special meeting of the Board may be called sometime between February 4 and March 25. In this connection it may be well to emphasize the fact that all commu- nications regarding =the affairs of the University which must be acted upon by the Board of Regents should be in this office eight days prior to the meet- ing 'of the Board. Our procedure in handling the business is such that they President no longer presents a "personal program." All items therefore . must be in hand eight days prior to a meeting if they are to be sure of con- sideration. Moreover, it is suggested that the communications be sent in just as early as possible in order to avoid congestion at the last moment and particularly in order to make it possible to gather any necessary facts which bear upon the problems presented for consideration. By this method hasty action is avoided and the interests of the University may be given careful and judicious attention. M. L. BURTON, President. To All Student Organizations: Notice is hereby given that any student organization wishing to give a dance, house-party, or social entertainment of any kind, in Ann Arbor or elsewhere, must secure permission of the Committee on Student Affairs. Failure to observe this order will render the offending organization liable to discipline. M. L BURTON, President.

What do you think about it? It is an accusation that has been hurled directly in the face of Michigan men., It was so directed as to apply to every phase of college life. Here are a few of the things at which it was aimed: Are Michigan men here to absorb book learning or are they here to get an education? Are Michigan men thinking or are they allowing what mental powers they have to be wasted in frivolous discussions of teas, dansants, et cetera? Is everything on the Micnigan campus as you would have it, or has something occurred to give rise to a "pet peeve"? AGAIN - WHAT DO YOU THINK ABOUT ITT. The Michigan Daily is compiling the sentiment of the campus on the charge, "Michigan is asleep." Discussions are invitedfrom everyone and anyone connected in any way with the University. Your name will not be used if you so desire, but all communica- tions on the subject must be signed as an evidence of good faith. Address them to the Sunday Editor, Michigan Daily, Ann Ar- bor. They should not exceed 250 words in length and should be mailed not later than Jan. 17, 1921. Jan. 31. Color designs must be in two weeks earlier, however. PROF. SHE PARD OUTLINES USE OF PSYCHOLOGY TESTS Prof. J. F. Shepard, of the psychol- ogy department, appeared before the engineering faculty at their recent meeting, outlining the psychology tests which are to be conducted with the engineering faculty again this year. These tests. are purely in the ex- perimental stage, according to Dean Mortimer E. Cooley, of the engineer- ing college. and are used only as a basis of investigation. No action is taken as a result of the statistics se- cured. They are, however, filed away and kept for future reference. Commenting on the nature of the questions asked, Dean Cooley said that they were of the same general nature of the army tests for officers excepting that they applied to the teaching profession. They gauge the approximate mental efficiency of the person examined. The tests were giv- en for the first time last year. INDUSTRIAL RESEARCH AND THE UNIVERSITY DISCUSSED "The Relation of Industrial Re- search to the University" was the subject of three speeches at -a meet- ing in connection with the depart- ment of industrial research last night. The speakers were Dr. W. J. Hale, director of chemical research with the Dow Chemical company, and former- ly professor of general chemistry at Michigan; Dr. C. D. Holley, director of research in paints and varnishes with the Sherwin-Williams factories, and at one time a member of the de- partment of chemical engineering; and John C. Brier. factory manager for the Holland Aniline and Chemi- cal works, and professor of chemi- cal engineering here from 1917 to 1919.
