Poll Reveals Employment Dean's Group
Figures of Female Students' Notes Only
In order to discover detailed in-
formation concerning the number
of women at the University who
work, the Office of the Dean of
Women recently sent out a four-
page questionnaire.
The specific facts desired were
threefold: what, if any, relation-
ship employment seems to have
with academic standing, what re-
lationship it seems to have upon
entrance into extra-curricular ac-
tivities and what relationship the
increased number of students from
lower income groups has on allo-
cation of scholarships.
82% Answer
Of the 3,972 questionnaires sent
out, 82 per cent were returned,
ranging from 100 per cent from
coops to 66.2 per cent from indi-
vidual mailing lists; residence
halls, league houses and dormi-
tories, in that order fell between
the two. Questionnaires were not
counted in situations where the
student reported taking less than
ten academic hours per semester.
The findings of the survey, as
reported by Deborah Bacon, Dean
of Women, in the Summer 1954 is-
sue of the Quarterly Review,
showed that 75 per cent of all wom-
en at the University work during
the summer, 35 per cent work
from two to 35 hours during the
school year and 33 per cent work
both summer and winter.
In a breakdown of the figures, it
was discovered that 23 per cent of

academic year, while 36 per cent
of sophomore girls, 43 per cent of
junior girls, 46 per cent of senior
girls and 57 per cent of graduate
and professional degree girls work
during the academic year.
Work and Grades
It was also found that almost
four out of five of those who are
failing academically are not em-
ployed. In addition to those who
fail with employment, figures
showed that the greater the num-
ber of hours worked, the less fail-
ures reported. Seventy-eight per
cent of the 267 women who made
less than a C average do not work
at all. On the other hand, 57 per
cent of the 212 students making an
A- to A average do not work.
Of the 153 girls who earned a
B average or better and at the
same time carried 11 or more
hours of employment per week, 80
undergraduates also participated in
two or more extra-curricular ac-
tivities.
Of the 2,772 women students an-
swering the questions on academ-
ic averages and scholarship aid,
a fraction under 75 per cent got
no aid at all. The other 25 per
cent received aid ranging from one
$25 gift to full out-state tuition plus
more than $500 in cash. Of all thej
women that answered both of the
questions, only 206 received any
aid beyond their semester fees.
Eighty-two per cent of the stu-
dents who made a scholastic aver-
age below 2.0 got no scholarship
aid, while 61 per cent of those
who make a 3.5 average got ho
scholarship aid.
No direct questions were asked
in relation to family income. How-
ever, statistics showed that of the
212 women students making a 3.5
average or better, 61 per cent re-
ceived no scholarship aid at all.
Of these students, 41 per cent are
employed.
One Change
Personnel in the Office of the
Dean of Women remains largely
unchanged this semester, despite
the resignation last spring of for-
mer Associate Dean Sarah Lutes
Healy.
Dean Healy left Ann Arbor in
August to assume responsibilities
as Dean of Women at the Univer=
sity of Alabama.
No direct replacement has been
made for the associate dean posi-
tion left vacant. Instead, Mrs. Eliz-
abeth A. Leslie has been appointed
to the office of Assistant Dean.
Formerly an administrative as-
sistant in the office, Mrs. Leslie
is a University graduate with a
Bachelor of Music degree. She will
continue to have particular respon-
sibility for the areas of league
houses, board and room questions,
Ann Arbor residents and foreign
students.
Also continuing this year as. as-
sistant deans are Mrs. Elsie R.
Fuller, whose position includes su-
pervision over women's residence
halls, and Miss Gertrude E. Mul-
hollan.

livan Society's fall production,

A November run in Ann Arbor
followed by a road show to Detroit
and Bay City have been planned
by the society.
Students are invited to work with
the group both on stage and be-

Greene, '55 president.
Some kinds of ducks cannot fly
during parts of the nesting season
because they lose many feathers
in moulting.
Women students should dress
the part.
They've been asked to leave
Bermuda and short shorts, jeans,
slacks, and pedal pushers in their
closets when business takes them
to the Administration Building,
League and Union dining rooms,
classrooms, libraries, and other of-
ficial University buildings.
Violations of the rule, re-issued
last week by the Office of the Dean
of Women, will be dealt with firm-
ly, with errant coeds turned back
to find their skirts.

explained that the request for
