State universities
helping freshmen
Many freshmen entering state
universities this fall will find the
pressure less because they learned
the ropes by spending severl days
on campus during the summer.
The often-difficult transition
from high school to a large uni
versity is receiving increased
attention on these campuses, ac
cording to a recent survey con
ducted by the Office of Institu
tional Research of the National
Association of State Universities
and Land-Grant Colleges. The
result has been a proliferation of
programs to make the adjustment
less painful.
More leisurely summer orienta
tion rather than the traditional
jam-packed fall sessions immedi
ately preceding the opening of
school, special pre-matriculation
and continuing tutorial and coun
seling programs for academically
disadvantaged students, and aca
demic offerings especially de
signed for freshmen are the new
approaches.
For the first time this year,
several universities also have
begun special orientation pro
grams for women. Among these
are Cornell University, which
planned a program “in response
to women’s lib demands,’’ and the
University of Virginia, which has
enrolled 450 women in the College
of Arts and Sciences, the last
male stronghold of the university.
The most widespread trend in
freshmen programs is the switch

from fall to summer orientation.
Parents as well as students were
invited to attend summer orienta
tion sessions on a number of
campuses. Generally four of five
sessions are spread throughout
the summer with a small group
of the entering freshman class
being invited to attend each one.
By keeping sessions small,
these large universities are find
ing that the get-acquainted proc
ess is much easier. Students are
able to complete their first term
course planning, testing, coun
seling and registration with far
less traumas than occur during
the usual frantic fall scene. They
also begin their college careers
at ease with their environment
and pre-informed about facilities
and services available to them.
Parents, too, are getting the
answers to some of their ques
tions. At the University of Mary
land freshmen parents attended
sessions on academic life and
ceived first-hand information on
counseling, medical services, and
financial aid, among other things.
“With the cost of education
having gone up college is now a
major investment for parents,”
says a spokesman for Indiana
University, which hosted 5,000
parents during the summer. “We
try to make it possible for them
to find out the things they would
like to know.”
Special attention is now being
given to minority group and
academically disadvantaged
freshmen at most universities.
Remedial and tutorial assistance
plus intensive counseling and
usually vital financial aid are the
major issues. Summer programs
for these students are becoming
prevalent.

beside Kyle Field. He said that
this lot is for day students and
that it is seldom full. Stafford
said that he has never noticed
the temporary lots completely
full.
“It is not a matter of not being
able to find a space but finding
one real close to their classes
which is bothering day students,”
Stafford says.
The reason for the excess
amount of spaces available to fac-
Parking
ulty is that it is important for
faculty to have space when ftej

said.

Americans to evacuate
from Jordan Thursday
WASHINGTON UP) _ A char
tered civilian airline will fly from
Beirut to Amman Thursday to
begin evacuation of Americans
who wish to leave embattled Jor
dan, the State Department said
Wednesday night.
Arrangements are being made
for the first flight of a Leba
nese Middle East Airlines plane
to pick up U.S. citizens and for
eigners of other nationalities, of
ficials said.
In the meantime radio broad
casts — including some by the
Voice of America U.S. govern
ment radio — are telling those
who wish to leave where they
should gather and what articles
they should bring with them.
Still unknown is how many of
the approximately 400 Ameri
cans in Jordan will try to get to
Amman’s airport for the airlift.
One estimate is the number could
range up to 200.
The airliner slated to fly in
Thursday morning has seats for
112 passengers, officials said.
They indicated another rescue
flight would follow after Thurs
day.
No U.S. military or security
personnel will be flying into Jor
dan on the chartered craft, State
Department officials said. They
said it is assumed that the Jor
danian government will provide
security for those foreigners
seeking to go to the airport.
Announcement of the evacua
tion flights came several hours
after informed sources said such
a plan was afoot, while the State
Department through spokesman
Robert J. McCloskey said at mid
day no evacuation had been
ordered.
