Within the next e!x weeks thou
sands of young men and women
will be graduating from the high

portant then to ask and auswer,
"What Should a Prospective Col

Now in the first place, it is not
so much a matter of knowing
things perhaps as it is a matter of
being able to demonstrate that one
Is able to accomplish certain
things. So. if you are college mate
