First 8 Psychology Majors
Due For Graduation In May
Aggies have demonstrated psy
chology in action through the
years, but now a group of stu
dents are enrolled in the new un
dergraduate program in psycholo
gy-
Eight seniors hope to graduate
in May as the first to receive from
A&M the Bachelor of Science de
gree with a major in psychology.
Psychology is attracting increas
ing numbers of students with the
40 majors counted now almost dou
ble the figure a year ago, college
officials pointed out.
A film depicting Indian social
problems attracted a crowd of
about 100 Indian and Pakistani
students at Guion Hall Sunday
afternoon and enchanced the spon
soring Indian Students Associat
ion hopes of attaining enough
funds to sponsor its National Re
public Day celebration, Jan. 26.
Association President G. K. Tan-
don, who acted as host for the
picture, “Ek Hi Rasta,” and nar
rated an English translation of
the film before the actual showing,
said the drama was “nicely re
ceived.” He said that the story
revolved around a widowed mother.
It was her child, Daisy Irani, a
girl performing as a boy, who
captured most of the viewers’ in
terest.
The Association of about 50
members will formulate its plan
with its available funds for the
national day at its next regular
meeting Friday at the YMCA
Building.
Tandon pointed out that the
Indian National Day was definite-
“The prospects are very good
that the number of psychology
majors will double within the next
year and then increase steadily
after that,” Dr. Paul Hensarling,
head of the Department of Edu
cation and Psychology said.
Walter A. Varvel who serves as
chairman of psychology and his
six faculty associates are happy
about this turn of affairs.
THEY DO WISH though that
the public had a better understand
ing of psychology.
ly the association’s most important
project of the year.
Pramod Desai was the program
chairman for the picture.
that psychology is a science,”
Varvel said.
The psychology major during his
freshman year, for example, stu
dies the same courses as premedi
cal students. It is not until the
sophomore year that the student
enters his first psychology class.
“Psychology is an established,
scholarly discipline, but it is also
a field that is showing remarkable
growth as an area of professional
practice,” Varvel said.
GRADUATE STUDY is de
scribed as essential to scientific
and professional success. The
A&M undergraduate program
helps students prepare for future
specialization in experimental, in
dustrial, or educational psycholo
gy or in guidance and counselling.
The faculty members hold de
grees from universities in several
states and collectively have a wide
range of professional experience.
They also are taking advantage of
the increased research facilities at
A&M.

Sweethearts and parents will be giving
REMINGTON® LEKTRONIC II shavers for Christ
mas. Shaving will become easier, cleaner and
more comfortable than having a beard.
Here’s why:
There’s the cordless feature.
Sealed-in, rechargeable energy
cells let you shave without a plug.
And what shaves they are! 348
cutting edges of high-carbon steel
(sharper and tougher than stain
less steel) whisk whiskers off.
These edges are honed on an
angle. So whiskers get sliced off
instead of “ploughed up." 756
whisker-gathering slots in the big shaving
head feed whiskers to the cutters faster. And
on top of the shaving head: REMINGTON
Roller Combs. Adjust to any skin or beard-
protect skin; set up whiskers.
Forget to recharge? There's a
cord. Plug it in and shave any
where—so get a REMINGTON LEK
TRONIC II for Christmas. After all,
you wouldn’t want to be the only
non-conformist on campus who
isn’t clean shaven.

Future Teachers
Do Hohday Work
About 32 Aggies will have “dou
ble holidays” this Christmas sea
son.
They are seniors with student
teaching assignments in the co
operating Bryan-College Station
schools, as part of professional
preparation for teaching careers.
Each day the Aggies spend sev
eral hours at their public school
assignment.
The university students plan
careers as school teachers of such
subjects as chemistry, English,
physics, industrial education, and
health and physical education.
A&M has programs for certifica
tion in 17 teaching fields.
Student teaching assignments
come after semesters of profes
sional studies, plus a number of
observation visits to the schools.
“As the intern in medicine
serves under the supervision of a
medical doctor, our student teach
ers are under the direct super
vision of a responsible teacher,”
William W. Stokes said. “Through
agreement with the cooperating
schools, the classroom teacher has
the final say in any situation. He
or she is the expert in teaching
in that classroom.”
Stokes is an assistant professor
in the Department of Education
and Psychology, and one of four
A&M departments which prepare
future teachers. The others are
the agricultural, industrial and
health and physical education de
partments.
A&M ranks third in Texas in
the preparation of male teachers,
the latest available figures from
the Texas Education Agency show.
No Senate Thursday
The Student Senate’s meeting
scheduled for Thursday night has
been canceled. The group will meet
again Jan. 9, Senate secretary Bill
Camp said.
