THE MICHIGAN DAILY
MONDAY, OCTOBER 29, 1945
The University of Michigan is beginning to change back to a peacetime
University. Many changes in calendar and program and in student person-
nel took place in the war years. During that time the enrollment of. women
increased each year by several hundred and there is every indication that
the enrollment of women this fall will be the largest in the history of the
University. Now the young men are
returning to colleges and universities !" ,u"'
and by the end of the year the cam-
pus will look more like a pre-war
campus.
The women enrolled at the Univer-
sity fulfilled a very fine responsibility.
On the campus at the University L i ma
of Mihgan the American sihhtudents
meet representatives of every state in ~
thT% union and nearly every nation In
the world. There is a fine opportunity
to p~romote international understand- AIECLOD
ing right here at the University.
There is also the opportunity to show our foreign friends what American
hospitality means. They will judge America and American women by what
they find on this campus.
In the years ahead women are going to have very keen and difficult
competition in the business, industrial, and professional world. It is import-
ant, therefore, that they accept their educational opportunities with a
serious purpose and that they show real quality in their achievements.
It is no time to come to the "campus" and not to the "college."
College training is a priceless opportunity. It must be a preparation
for a life of usefulness. It must be an experience in tolerance and under-
standing. It should train you to be effective in your generation. We welcome
you'to the University of Michigan with the hope and belief that you will
discover here the true meaning of education.

Co-op Living
Is Economical
Students Do Own Cleaning,
Cooking, Food Purchasing
By MANNY ROSE
Performing a vital economic func-
tion and responding to the need for a
development of inter-racial under-
standing, campus cooperative houses
continue for the 'thirteenth year to
operate under the principles evolved
in Rochdale, England, a century ago.
Campus Co-op houses were first or-
ganized in the depths of the depres-
sion and were the means by which
many students were enabled to re-
main in school. By renting a house
and doing their own food-purchasing,
cooking and cleaning they were able
to effect great savings.
Today there are five cooperative
houses on campus, three for girls
and two for men. They have banded
together to form the Inter-Cooperat-
ive Council (ICC), which serves as
the executive organization for the
group. The Council meets semi-
monthly to formulate long-range poli-
cies and thrash out immediate prob-
lems.
The physical set-up at the various
houses is much the same as that
developed by the hardy pioneers who
introduced the plan on campus. In
each house a president, a treasurer
and various other officers are elected
by the house members. House work
is apportioned equitably among the
group. House meetings are called at
frequent intervals to discuss matters
that arise in theday-by-day process
of running the house.
Group purchasing has long been
an important factor in campus co-
operative economy. By integrating
their menus and pooling their pur-
chases co-ops have been able to ef-
feet the savings inherent in mass buy-
ing. An IFC purchaser studies the
food situation and plans a buying
program which will yield the ulti-

Part Time Jobs
Open to Coeds
Desiring- Work
Although the Willow Run plant has
ceased to operate, there will be al-
most as many jobs available to wom-
en students this year, according to
the Office of the Dean of Women.
The Dean's office keeps a special
file of jobs for those women who wish
to work part time. In touch with
stores, offices and householders, the
file has requests for reporters, nur-
sery school workers, and household
work. Those women wishing to ap-
ply for these jobs sho ld contact the
Office and place their names on the
list of those desiring part time work
"As of last year, all women working
even a small portion of their time
must register in our files," said ,Mrs.
Mary C. Bromage, of the Office of the
lean of Women.
Library Offers Jobs
For those with a library turn of.
mind, the University libraries need
women for all sorts of jobs; filing in
the cataloguie and in the stacks ser-
vice. A minimum of 15 hours work
a week is expected of each library
worker, but there hours are easily
arranged with the coed's class sche-
dules.
For cafeteria work, the Michigan
League offers employment in the
Soda Bar, or in one of the two dining
rooms. Other waitress positions may
be found in some of the local res-
'taurants and in the dormitories.
These jobs involving food have been
especially pgpular in the past few
years, because of the increasing
shortage of places to eat.
Faculty Also Helps
"One of the easiest and best ways
to earn room and board is to live at
the home of a faculty member or
some other recommended private
home," concluded Mrs. Bromage. In
this case the student gives in ex-,
change a certain amount of time do-
ing housework.
Ine University employs typists and
stenographers, so those women with
experience in these lines will find
themselves in demand. Other busi-
ness concerns in the city of Ann Ar-
bor also need secretarial workers.
Iosplta.l Workers
The University Hospital needs tray
and ward helpers, and those coeds
who desire hospital experience will
find many jobs at the hospitals that
will be both interesting and profit-
able. The University Laundry also
I needs women to help feed the man-
gles and to fold the clean clothes.
While almost no student can man-
age to earn her total expenses, many
of the women on campus help out
with their incidentals by participat-
s ing in part time work.
Headed by Ruthann Bales, Judi-
ciary Committee will continue its two-
fold task of supervising the inter-
viewing and petitioning system and7
enforcing house rules.
Posts on the Women's War Coun-
cil, junior positions in the League,
Assembly and Panhellenic boards, and
all class projects are appointed by
Judiciary through petitions and in-
terviews.
The committee consists of Miss
Bales, president; Ann Schutz, sec-

Petitioning Explained
Before any petitioning is schedul-
ed, the Judiciary committee holds a3
meeting for all those who are eligible"
for the project in question and at
that time explains the procedure and
the qualifications necessary for the
positions.
The petitions which incorporate the
applicant's ideas for the positions
plus any special qualifications she
has for the job are due one week
after the opening of petitioning has
been announced in The Daily. The
applicant then signs for an inter-
view at which time she explains fur-
ther her definite plans for the job in
question.
After consideration of all appli-
cants, Judiciary submits its recom-
mendations to the League Council for
approval.
Hearing of\ Cases
In its capacity as a "court," Judi-
ciary Committee hears all the cases
of infringement of -house rules
recommended to it by house directors
and the Office of the Dean of Women.
According to Miss Bales, each
freshman woman will be given a
pamphlet of house rules during orien-
tation and that each woman in the
university is responsible for krnow-
ing the house rules. "Any violation
of the rules due to not knowing the
rules will be handled as any other
violation," she added.
Late Permission
Of special importance to freshmen
is the rule that freshmen are not
given automatic late permission for
University-sponsored events during
the week if the events are given on
the weekend also. Chief among the
violations which bring the offender
before Judiciary are latenesses of one-
half hour or over and five latenesses
in one semester.
Other important house rules are as
I follows:
I Any student expecting to be out of
the house after 7:30 p. m. must
register the occasion and place (if
out of town, the complete address).
Closing hours Monday through
Thursday are 10:30 p.m., 12:30 a.m.
Friday and Saturday, and 11 p.m.
Sunday.
Any woman wishing to be out of
her house overnight during the week
must register her plan in the Office
of the Dean of Women before 4:.30
p.m. of that day.
All late permissions must be obtain-
ed from the Office of the Dean of
Women. House directors are not
allowed to give out late permissions.
Women who attend certain Univer-
sity-sponsored events must be in the
house one-half hour after their ter-
mination.
Lateness Penalties
All latenesses are to be made up at
the rate of five times the number of
minutes late. The offender must come
in the required number of minutes
early on the Friday or Saturday fol-
lowing the lateness.
Sign-out sheets must be turned in
on Monday of each week at the
Undergraduate Office in the Michi-
gan League. All latenesses, penalties
and late permissions must be en-
circled.
Judiciary Committee also is respon-
sible for the enforcement of quiet
hours within the, houses. Each house
will decide its own quiet hours and
Judic will visit the houses during the
semester to check on their effective-
ness.
Volunteers Needed
Judiciary Committee Supervises
Interviews, Petitions, House Rules.
For Hospital
Work
Shortly after the beginning of the
semester a rheeting will be held to
recruit sophomore women for work
as hospital volunteers at the Univer-
sity Hospital, Cynthia- Coates, gen-
eral chairman of the project for this
fall, announced recently.
Serving as assistants in this work
are :Audrey Lawrence, Pearl Klaus-
ner, Julie Benson, Lucille Kennedy,
