Adjunct Schedules Summer Sessions
If Aggies will return the knives,
forks and spoons “borrowed”
since last semester, food service
personnel would be able to serve
the 2,600-member Corp)S of Cadets
without using new silver.
“We know there are enough
knives, forks and spoons missing
to serve nearly 3,000 students,”
said Col. Fred W. Dollar, Food
Service Director. “And that is a
conservative estimate.”
Pointing out an exact count
of items taken from A&M din
ing halls will be made at the end
of the semester, Dollar said it is
already obvious $15,000 worth of
eating utensils has been taken
during the fall and spring semes
ters.
Students short change them
selves, he added, since “we could
serve them a better meal — more

A&M’s Adjunct at Junction will
open its first summer session
June 2.
William J. Dobson, A&M bi
ology professor and adjunct direc
tor, said the camp will open with
175 students.
The first of two summer ses
sions will continue through July
11. The second session will be
held July 14 to Aug. 22.
The adjunct is a summer pro
gram for freshmen who can “use
a bit more help” in making the
transition between high school and
college which is often difficult for
many students, Dobson added.
He pointed out the summer pro
gram includes special study, coun
seling and guidance as well as
physical fitness.
The primary aim, however, is
study with instructors offering
personal help to students.
