With this in mind a Daily reporter sought out one of the old seniors on the campus and the fol- lowing is what this man thinks makes a model freshman. These rules are based upon this man's personal experi- ence and upon his experience as a member of an organization which has close connection with all student ac- tivities. Be a Michigan man and follow Mich- igan traditions. 1. We should wear the freshman caps, or toques, at all times, excepting Sundays. 2. We should hide all our prep school insignia. 3. We should not smoke pipes on the campus. 4. We should never sit on the senior benches. 5. We should always allow a Oman of higher class to precede us through a door. 6. We should attend all mass meet- ings, and class functions. 7. We should talk only seldom in the presence of older students who are willing to talk. 8. We should learn "The Yellow and the Blue" as soon as possible. 9. We should take part in all class contests. 10. We should speak to every mem- ber of our class (i. e., among the men), whether an introduction has been giv- en or not. 11. We should not occupy any of the seats in the first five rows of the Majestic. Real Advice Much Different Advice for freshmen is altogether different. The advice usually handed out can not be universally applied be- cause of the vast difference between the make-up of the individuals. The advice which is usually rejected flatly by first year men is the brand wich merely says to behave oneself. Some of the best specific suggestions are enumerated below: Choose Courses Carefully In picking courses get the advice of some older student who seems to have been successful in the course you are contemplating. Always consult a faculty man, if you are afraid of hav- ing students "kid" you. Don't pick snap courses because they are easy. Don't worry too much about special- izing the first year. Get plenty of culture, and try to feel out the sort of thing you really do want for a life work. Keep up your studies well;I concentrate,"and be ,stenat c. elok Ip rratern tie If invited a ,econd tife to a fra- ternity. look up its records. Find out how it stands.nationally. Ask two or three independent upperclassmen how' it stands on the campus. Try to pene- trate through the glamor of the rush- ing season into the real characters of the fraternity members. If you don't intend to join if asked, refuse the third invitation. If you are sure you need and want fraternity life and can afford it, accept. Do not feel badly if not asked to join. "Independent" is not a word of reproach at Michigan. Never talk fraternity to fraternity members. Learn to Meet Men Learn how to meet men; how to remember faces and names. Sign up for The Daily, and as many other publications as you care for Few students ever regret Joining the Union which provides the quintessence of social existence in Ann Arbor. The Y. M. C. A. is fine for students who do outside work, and those who are in- terested in religious discussions, social service work. There are sev- eral debating and oratorical societies open to freshmen. The choral union and church choirs give training in music. Go to church and recitals and lectures. Be on time for classes. Never solicit a vote for an office. By an acquaintance to everybody; pick friends you think will be big men after graduation. Never tell of the wonderful things you did in your high school.
