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. ALICE C.

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- (Continued on Page _5) asy To Make tion of problem two you feel you are in need of a respite, and so you make your way to the drinking fountain Upon your return you again force your wandering attention to remain on the problems, which have by this time become definite burdens. The antics of two nearby sailors provide fascinating entertainment, however and you forget your troubles until the chimes ring out the startling new that the Library is closing.

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- Sophomore Class Schedules Annual Caboret for Dec. 15 December 15 is the date which has been set for Soph Cabaret, the an- nual dramatic production given by the members of the sophomore class.

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, Marie Neumeister, Carla Mullendore, Martha Gilmore, Barbara Busse, Nancy Robertson, Betty Lou Zwemer, Hanice Green and Edna Klein.
