I PAGE TWO THE MICHIGAN. DAILY WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 16, 1953 #R PERSONAL GUIDANCE: Counseling Service Aids Students with Problens C*>-- The counseling system at the University is set up so that each student receives the personal guid- ance that is often lacking in a large school. This is the keystone of the Uni- versity counseling system, accord- ing to Clyde Vroman; Director of Admissions. The pre-enrollment counseling during a summer visit to campus is the first contact the student is likely to have with the University counseling system. This program which centers around the admis- sions office, offers the prospective student an opportunity to discuss Yom Kippur Service Slated The B'nai-Brith Hi~lel Founda- tion has scheduled Yom Kippur iervices to be held Frjd y and Sat- urday in the Lydia Mendelssohn Theater. All stats for the services are re- served. No charge has been set for the -rt.fervations which may be picked i p anytime a b the Mendels. sohn- pox office. The first service has been sche- duled- foi 6:15 p~m. Friday. Sat- urday's will begin at 9:30 a.m. READ AND USE DAILY CLASSIFIEDS with an advisor his educational ob- jectives and any problems or in- securities which he might have. In- formation about living arrange- ments, part-time employment, campus activities, and University services also may be obtained at this time. Letters are sent along with the admission certificates urging incoming students to take advantage of this service. * * * THE NEXT step usually takes the student to the academic coun- selors office in Rm. 1210 Angell Hall where he talks over his pro- gram and selects the courses he will take in his initial semester at the University. After matricual- ation this office will provide the basic contact point with the coun- seling system for freshmen and sophomores. During'the Orientation Period preceeding registration the stu- dent will meet the academic counselor to which he has been assigned. He retains the same counselor during his first two years at the University. This would be the first meeting with the University counseling sys- tem for those who had been un- able to take part in the pre-en- rollment counseling program. Here the advisor explains the services offered by the academic counselor and helps with the making out of programs for those who have not previously done so. See STUDENTS, Page 3 Deferment Possibilities At'U' Listed Three ways are open for the physically fit freshman man to face his armed service obligation and also go to college: 1. He can seek deferment from his draft board. 2. He can join the Organized Reserve Corps or the National Guard. 3. He can join one of the three branches of the ROTC on cam- pus. ! IF A STUDENT takes the first path and tries to get a deferment, he must pass the academic apti- tude test. This test is given on a national scale twice a year. The next deferment test will be given in December. The exact date has not been announced. Passing this test does not guarantee deferment, however. The test results are used by the local draft boards along with the student's marks as guides to de- termine whether or not defer- ment will be granted. Another factor which can be considered by the local boards is the program under which the stu- dent is enrolled. Deferments can legally be given only to students studying in a field the board feels is "necessary to the maintenance of the national health, safety, or in- terest." This, however, has been in- terpreted as meaning most any college program. See ROTC, Page 8 University's First Family Future grading of literary col- lege instructors by students will depend upon a faculty committee report to be presented this fall. Begun in 1948, on a trial basis, the evaluations of the faculty proved popular with the students. The faculty "report card" took the form of a questionnaire where the students rated on a numerical (1-5, tops to poor) basis several aspects of the effectiveness of teacher and text. Average com- piled after each evaluation showed an overall 2-plus rating. * * * NO ADMINISTRATIVE deci- sions were based upon these eval- uations, the last of which took place in the fall of 1951. Since that time, a faculty committee has been appointed to make a study of the evalua- tions and report on their mer- its. This report is nearing the completion stage, and is sched- uled to be presented to the faculty senate at the September or October meeting. The recom- mendations, if any, made by this committee may sway the faculty to continue or dscn- tinue the evaluations. There seems to be a widely varying opinion on the part of the faculty as to whether student judgments were dependable or not, according to Prof. Shorey Peterson of the economics department, chairman of the committee. PROF. PETERSON. also .said that the committee plans to cor- relate the results of the* Univer- sity evaluations with the exper- iences of 40 comparable schools. At last spring's student-faculty literary college conference, stu- dents voiced the opinion that they liked very much to participate in these evaluations, but- they felt that they were not in a position to make decisions of academic nature.
