This is the first summer, too, that the
Ralph Mueller Planetarium Theater has been
in operation and I heartily recommend it to
you. I am sure you will thoroughly enjoy

of you will want to attend the concerts, plays, and the mu

May I also suggest that you take advantage of the pro
grams offered by the Student Union. Our Student Union,
as you probably have noticed, is in the midst of growing
pains The services offered by the Union, however, are con
tinuing and we hope you will bear with us the inconveniences
brines to a center of this kind.
I want to extend a special welcome to those of you who
are coming to the University for the first time. This is one

The forecast for the 1958 Summer Sessions should be of
interest to all students.
The total University enrollment will be about 3300 stu

from across the nation. This staff will be

Sorenson The greatly enriched program of instruc
tion should be well received by students and their families.
This program includes the carefully planned world affairs
seminars, the clinics on the teaching of moral and spiritual
values and attacking the problem of juvenile delinquency,
also the weekly summer artist series and the high-quality
film program. ,
While summer students will be inconvenienced somewhat
with the changes now being made in the Student Union Build
ing, all will be glad to know that in the summer of 1959 one
of the finest Student Union centers in the nation will be at
the University of Nebraska, especially equipped with its own
airconditioning.

Reactions
Favorable
From Trip
Nebraska businessmen and
educators last week took a
flight that may have as its
ultimate result the construc
tion of the proposed Kellogg
Center for continuing educa-catlon.
Two chartered planes took
34 Nebraskans to East Lans
ing Mich., for a two-day visit
to the Kellogg Center at Mich
igan State University.
First reports from the trav
ellers expressed highly favor
able reactions to the sights
of the Michigan 7-story hotel
classroom structure.
The Michigan center is de
scribed as a city all itself.
To Acquaint
The triD. sponsored by the
University Foundation, is for
the purpose of acquainting
Nebraskans with the role of
an adult education center.
Perry Branch, secretary-di-recotr
of the Foundation, said
the trip is preliminary to a
proposed campaign to raise
funds for a similar center at
Nebraska.
The W. K. Kellogg Founda
tion in February granted the
University $1.5 million for use
in construction a $2.6 million
Center for Continuing Educa
tion on the Ag Campus. To
receive the grant, the Uni
versity must raise an addi
tional $1.1 million.
Architect Travels
Later this month another
trip scheduled in connection
with the Kellogg Center is that
of Selmer Solheim, architect
for the proposed Nebraska
structure.
Solheim ai" some of his
Ktnff members will study ex
isting Kellogg Centers at East
Lansing and in Athens, ua.
The men making the trip
to East Lansing last week
were drawn from througnoui
the state. The list, headed by
Governor Victor Anderson in
.iiuiiii ihf rhanccllor and oth
er University officials, men
from virtually every type of
business in the state.
The Nebraskans flew by
rhartered Braniff plane and in
the governor's Air Guard
plane, individual reprt-senia-
tives of some 10 commum
tics caid their own way.

attennded, although the group
said 27 had been invited irom
