ISA Enlists Independents
ISA Offers
Well-Rounded
Activity Plan
TO AID IN THE FULL DE
VELEOPMENT and adjustment
of Independent students this is
a part of the purpose of the In
dependent Students association
on the Nebraska campus.
ISA. as the organization is
known, has open membership for
all students, male and female,
who wish to belong to a social
society other than a sorority or
fraternity. Seventy-five percent of
the students on tne reorasKa
campus do not belong to Greek
letter organizatipns, and a large
number of them belong to ISA.
IN ITS PROGRAM, ISA acts as
a constructive force in develop
ing the aims and ideals of the Uni
versity. It gives the independent
student support and backing for
individual gains in campus life,
and offers a program of campus
welfare. .
An ISA membership drive is
held each fall and spring during
registration. This fall, ISA booths
will be set up during registration,
and students may join at that
time. The cost fs $1 per semester
for a membership card which en
titles the owner to attend and par
ticipate in all social activities
sponsored by the organization dur
ing the fall semester.
AMONG THE ACTIVITIES
sponsored by ISA are tea dances,
picnics and intramural atheltic
The administrative body of ISA
is made up of a board of officers
and the ISA council. The council
meets every Monday night to dis
cuss ways of solving problems of
all members of the organization
such as improvements in housing
and academic problems.
ISA membership is open to all
races and creeds.
Students Initiate
"Campus Lingo"
After one week fo study at the
University you will be fully in
itiated into what is known as
"campus lingo."
Until then, you may find your
self wandering endlessly through
campus hunting for "sosh" or
figuring out what that upper
classman meant when he asked
you if you were a "bizad" stu
dent. . , , '
Sosh, you will find out. Is the
nickname for Social Sciences
hall and "bizad" is just another
name for the college of business
administration.
Other common names, abbrevi
ated to the college student's con
servation, include soc (pro
nounced sosh) for Socioloy
courses, "psych," for psychology
courses or "P.E." for physical
education courses.
If you're enrolled n Ag cam
pus, you may be sure of being
called a "cow college" student at
some time .during your stay at
Nebraska, while the ROTC stu
dent will be called a "rotcy stu
dent." Political Science courses are
called "poly sci," and engineering
students are called "engine stu
dents." Lost ID Cards
Cause Confusion
Don't lose that identification
card.
Without your University ID, you
would be virtually at a loss. They
are required to be shown for
everything from applying for care
at the Student Health center to
eligibility for noting at all-campus
elections. , ,
However, if the little card does
slip out of your clutches, a new
one may be obtained at the office
fit admissions in the Administra
tion building. A charge of $1 is
made for each ID card obtained,
other than the original.

walked off with the honor last
spring.
NORMA CHUBBUCK, Lincoln,
was elected president of BABW in
the annual women's election held
last March. According to Miss
Chubbuck, "BABW wants each
freshman and transfer woman
student to feel at home at Ne
braska U. By joining one of the
BABW sponsored organizations
such as Amikita or Adelphi, new
students will find the kind of com
panionship and friendship every
one wants. A tea will be held next
fall to introduce these organiza
tions to the new students, and I
hope through these groups, the
freshmen will son feel they are a
real part of the University."
