Students'Nd by Dean By JANE FOWLER Recognizing that education is an expensive process, the University of Michigan has arranged scholar- ships, loans and part time em- ployment to aid students in meet- ing their financial problems. For students entering the Uni- versity for the first time, assistance is offered in the form of Regents- Alumni Scholarships to seniors graduating from Michigan high schools and Michigan Public Jun- ior College Scholarships. Men and women may also often receive grants sponsored by local alumni groups. Upperclassmen are elegible for numerous scholarships in varying amounts, some of which are de- signated for students enrolled in specific schools. Called "an out- right payment of money by the University to a student who has been selected for such aid," these are awarded on the basis of schol- astic ability, character and need. Scholarships Available There are 93 scholarships made available throughout the University in general. Loans are made from funds set aside for aiding worthy students. Detailed information concerning the obtaining and repayment of these loans is included in the Uni- versity publication on student loan funds. The Dean of Women's office makes available a list of jobs open and will help coeds find employ- ment during the school y e a r. Through this office applications for women are handled. As a special feature, a list of potential baby- sitters is kept there. Campus Positions Positions are available at the Michigan League, the Michigan Union, General Library, Univer- sity Hospital and in women's re- sidence halls. Off campus openings downtown stores and working as hospital aides. Some women do light housework or care for children in return for complete room and board. All such homes off-campus are approved by the Dean of Women's office. Coeds who would like to be em- ployed are urged to contact the Dean of Women as soon as pos- sible for there are a great number of women who seek work. Office Work Students intersted in office work should go to the Personnel Office1 in the Administration Building which handles University jobs in- cluding typing and clerical work. For employment in residence halls, either at the switchboards or helping in the dining rooms, it is best to apply directly to the dormitory office or dietitian. It is recommended that first semester freshmen do not attempt to work because of the adjustments to be made in scholastic and so- cial life. However, if it is abso- lutely essential that they do so, freshmen women are limited to ten hours of work per week. Upperclassmen m a y b e em- ployed up to 21 hours per week although it is suggested that they plan on earning no more than one half of their. college expenses. If financial difficulties should arise while at the University, coeds are advised to consult with the Dean of Women, Deborah Bacon, at her office in the Administration Building.

Dedication The listening rooms are dedicat- ed to the memory of the late Bar- bara J. Little who died in an auto- mobile accident in the summer of 1951 following her graduation. Miss Little, chairmen of Wom- en's Judiciary Council in 1950-51, was a principle figure in the estab- lishment of the Joint Judiciary Council. She was also on the exe- cutive board of the Women's Sen- ate, Women's League Council,Stu- dent Affairs Committee, Board of Representatives, Scroll and Panhel- lenic Rushing Chairman in 1949-50. Funds for the soundproofing, painting, draperies, rugs, lamps and furniture of the listening rooms were obtained from the League activities of 1952 and 1953 such as Frosh Weekend, Sophomore Caba- ret, Junior Girls' Play, Senior Sup- per and the Summer Session. Local Contribution These funds were supplemented by special contributions from in- dividuals and a $200 gift from Del- ta Delta Delta, of which Miss Lit- tle was an alumna, for purchasing the furniture in Room "B." A pic- ture and memoriam of Miss Little also appear in this room. The listening rooms will be open: Monday through Thursday, 9 a.m. to noon, 1 p.m. to 5:30 p.m. andI 7 p.m. to 10 p.m.; Friday, 9 a.m. to noon and 1 p.m. to 5:30 p.m. and Sunday, 2 p.m. to 5 p.m. and 7 p.m. to 10 p.m. ,, .+ . .. SOCIAL DIRECTOR: 'Miss Mac' Guides LeagueActivities help from theLMerit-Tutorial Com- ..............mittee of the League. As the name implies this commitee provi tutoring services at minimum fees throughout the semester. fi _ Daily Staff 'MISS MAC'-Social director and coordinator of the Michigan League, Miss Ethel McCormick, guides all League activities and assists coeds with the many and varied class projects. The Ethel McCormick scholarship, named after 'Miss Mac,' is awarded to worthy students at the University. x i By SUE GARFIELD Nucleus of women's extra-curri- cular activities on campus, the Michigan League provides many outlets for coeds' interests and of- fers opportunities to meet people and make new friends. Freshmen and transfer students who want to get into the spirit of campus life may get acquainted with the League and its functions by meeting the Social Director, Miss Ethel McCormick. Better known as "Miss Mac," she is supervisor of the League activities and is always willing to offer guidance and to help women students. According to many of the projects' chairmen, "We couldn't get along without 'Miss Mac.' " League Facilities In her opinion, the best way to get started is to get to know all the League facilities. The Round-Up Room and Rum- us Room are the places to go for relaxation with a jukebox, dance floor, television set and ping-pong table, says "Miss Mac." The library and listening rooms and study hall provde quiet places for reading or just every-day study- ing. "Miss Mac" advises all wom- en to come to League Night, which will take place during orientation week and get a start in the acti- vities. On that night all freshmen wom- en will draw for teams for Frosh Weekend, which is the main event for first-year women. As it has be- come a tradition, the Maize and Blue teams each present a dance and floorshow, which is judged on decorations, originality, program design and number of tickets"sold. Although the shows take place in the spring, second-semester freshmen may also participate in the drawing for teams. Floorshows The two teams from last year will each present their floorshow on League Night. Other skits will also be given and coeds will have a chance to tour the building. After that, the women may start working on committees. The first important work they can partici- pate in, according to "Miss Mac," is to help with the decoration for I-Hop, the first all-campus fall dance, sponsored by Assembly As- sociation, one of the many League groups. The League dance classes are another important function of the League. Coeds may sign up to be hostesses in couples classes or just learn new steps in' the singles classes. Also as "Miss Mac". says,' "It's a good way to meet men." Glee Club Music-minded women may join the Women's Glee Club, an asso- ciated League activity. The pro- gram of the club includes concerts, radio shows and tours. The League is also known for its community .ctivities. All fresh- men women who like to do civic work, will probably want to join the service group. The work of these coeds usually consists of vol- unteer work in the University Hos- pital or speech cinic. Although the activities are varied and "very appealing," "Miss Mac" advises all women to "be sure and start studying immediately, so they won't be caught short at the end of the semester." Those coeds who find trouble in their studies, however, may seek For women who possess interest in writing, "Miss Mac" advises all those freshmen interested to start as tryouts on the Wom- en's Staff of The Daily. The "staff- ers" keep in close touch with all social events and League activities as well as cover other campus or- ganization and events, she said. "Make sure you go to meet Pres- ident and Mrs. Hatcher and their family at the teas," suggested "Miss Mac" to incoming students. Other important events which students may attend during the year are the concert and lecture series on campus. Tickets to these and many special programs, fea- turing famous persons, may be pur- chased at the beginning a n d throughout the semester. Accord- ing to "Miss Mac," these series are "the best in the country." The Social Director likes to see coeds who are interested in extra= curricular activities and. feele that it is important for everyone to take advantage of all opportun- ities to go out for activities of their choosing. However, she advises, "don't take on too much. After all, studies should come first and many have been known to fail in courses be- cause they were too absorbed in other activities. All freshmen women will be is- sued a little booklet, the League Lowdown, which will provide any information needed about t h e League, its associated organizations and their activites. Library.
