GRADUATE STUDENTS BRING ADMIS
SION LETTER OR COURSE OF STUDY
TO REGISTRATION.
In order to avoid difficulty in registra
tion each graduate student who has an of
ficially appoved course of study is re
minded that he must bring it to the reg
istration. Each graduate student who does
not yet have an approved course of study
must bring his letter of admission to the
Graduate School which outlines the work
he proposes to undertake and any back
ground or prerequisite work which is re
quired of him.
Each member of the Graduate Faculty
who is signing up a graduate student for
one of their courses should call for and
study these papers. This will help to make
sure that the student is properly guided in
taking courses in their most logical se
quence. It will frequently avoid the troub
le which arises when a student fails to take
a course this semester which may not be
offered again within the next semester or
so, thus completely disrupting his program
and sequence of training.
It is also pointed out that a study of
such material will materially assist the
faculty member in determining whether or
not a student has the necessary background
and prerequisite training for successfully
taking a particular graduate course he re
quests.
The Graduate School asks the coopera
tion of both graduate and faculty mem
bers in passing this request on to other
faculty members and graduate students so
that they may come to the registration
desk properly prepared.

The Church is the greatest lac-
tor on earth lor the building of
character and good citizenship. It
is a storehouse of spiritual values.
Without a strong Church, neither
democracy nor civilization can
survive. There are four sound
reasons why every person should
attend services regularly and sup
port the Church. They are: (1)
For his own sake. (2) For his
children's sake. (3) For the sake
of his community and nation. (4)
For the sake of the Church itself,
which needs his moral and ma-
-terial support. Plan to go to
church regularly and read your
Dible daily.
