WITH STUDENTS from all cor-
ners of the earth at the Universi-
ty, many clubs have sprung up in
which foreign stduents get to-
gether to bring into their college
life a bit of their native land.
Among these are clubs repre-
senting the Arab countries, Pak-
istan, China, India, Hawaii,
Turkey, Armenia, Japan, Po-
land and the Philippines. Work-
Remodeled
LibraryReady
A completely remodeled General
Library, with improved lighting
facilities will be ready for student
use this fall.
According to Warner G. Rice,
director of the General Library,
the inside of the building has
been completely repainted, mur-
als are being restored and a snfok-
ing lounge being prepared for stu-
dents.
Rice reported that circulation
figures for the past year indicate
a decline of over 200,000 from the
1950 to '51 figure of 1,444,852 books
circulated for library and home
use.
The total number of books held
by the General Library in divi-
sions all over campus now total
1,512,382 volumes.

ing in conjunction with these
are a Council for Displaced Per-
sons and a Committee for In-
ternational Living.
Students from the Upper Penin-
sula get together in the Hiawatha
Club, and British Commonwealth
Students belong to the Beacon
Club.
ENTHUSIASTS of French, Ger-
man, Spanish and Russian lan-
guage study have formed groups
in which the foreign language is
exclusively spoken to aid students
in improving their skill with
them.
Depending upon whether you
are affiliated or independent
you may join one of these co-
ordinating groups: Assembly,
an association for independent
women; Inter-Cooperative
Council, Inter Fraternity Coun-
cil, or Panhellenic, an associa-
tion of sorority women.
Then come the League and
Union student offices which are
the administrators of student af-
fairs for -these recreational cen-
ters.
OTHER STUDENT government
organizations are the all-campus
Student LegAslature, the Men's
and Women's Judiciary Councils,
the Engineering Honor Council
and the newly-formed Inter-Dor-
mitory Judiciary Councils.
For the All-Americans, news-
per editors, campus belles and
other assorted big wheels who
manage to get a decent scholas-
tic record there are the honorary
societies, namely: Druids, Michi-
gamua, Scroll, Senior Society,
Sphinx, Triangle, Vulcans, and
Wyvern.
There are also just plain clubs
for people who have a simple in-
terest in common, for instance,
Acolytes, Chess Club, Graduate
Outing Club, Hostel Club, Les
Voyageurs, Midshipman's Club,
Mimes, Quarterdeck, Rifle Club,
Sailing Club, Women's Athletic
Association, ULLR Ski Club, Wol-
verine Club for activity promoters,
and Kindai Nihon Kenkyu Kai,
which is a Japanese study group.

FRATERNITY HAZING-On the way out amon g many fraternities is the annual tradition of haz-
ing pledges. Now, instead of "Hell Week" several houses have "Help Week" in which pledges aid
community welfare projects by donating their time and energy in necessary menial tasks like paint-
ing and cleaning. The new "brothers" pictured above are eating the traditional pledge supper with
their arms tied to a 6x6 timber.

HONORARY SOCIETIES-Students excelling in campus activi-

honor societies. 'Fhe initiation ritual is the only distasteful part

Several changes in the campus
scene will greet returning students
this fall.
They will include the completed
Angell Hall addition, remodeled
cement work on the diagonal, two
almost-finished buildings in the
University Hospital area, and
preparations for the new Wo-
men's Athletic Building.
SIX DEPARTMENTS of the lit-
erary college: English, journalism,
psychology, political science, so-
ciology and history will take up
residence in the spacious four
million dollar Angell Hall addition.
The huge brick structure is
made up of a four story class-
room unit, a story and a half
section housing four auditoriums

and the eight story office wing
on the south. Part of the addi-
tion has already been used for
several classes during the sum-
mer session.
The other change on the main
campus is the removal of the brick
'Michigan' emblem from the diag-
onal. This emblem was long the
center of a hazy tradition which
decreed that no freshman could
step on it, for fear of upperclass-
men retaliation.
* , ,*
TWO STRUCTURES in the Uni-
versity Hospital building program
are also nearing completion.
First is the new outpatient
building which will replace and
expand present overcrowded fa-

cilities in the hospital proper.
The six-story building, joining
the hospital on the northeast
will provide 24-hour- a-day am-
bulance service plus facilities for
the training of medical studp ts.
The other building, which is ex-
pected to be completed sometime
this fall, is the Kresge Memorial
Research Building, located West
of the Hospital.
Houses have been razed at the
bottom of "Observatory Hill" in
preparation for the University's
newest construction, the new Wo-
men's Athletic Building which will
contain a full sized swimming pool.
It will be constructed on the cor-
ner of Forest and North Univer-
sity, south of the present Women's
Athletic Building.

With offices in eight cities
throughout the state, the Univer-
sity Extension Service offers a
wide variety of educational courses
to a large off-campus enrollment.
Detroit, Grand Rapids, Flint,
Saginaw, Escanaba, Traverse City,
and Ann Arbor are the cities in
which the University now offers
classes.
Both credit and non-credit
courses, supervised correspond-
ence courses, adult education
institutes and programs in such
fields as community organiza.
tion, leadership training, fire-
manship training, parent edu-
cation, real estate and business
are among Extension service
programs.
For thesthird consecutive year,
the University will also present a
televised program of courses, sup-
plementing the regular extension
service servies.

The University was the first in
the country to extend educational
facilities beyond the classroom in
this way. The extension enroll-
ment reached 3847 for 1951-52 as
compared with 2366 for 1950-51,
the first experimental year. A
greater increase is expected this
year.
