Counseling
Cost Added
A charge of $15.00 for pre
college counseling service to
Nebraska high school s t u -dents,
is not intended to dis
courage prospective Univer
sity students, Lee W. Chat
field, Director of the Junior
Division, said.
The Board of Regents ap
proved on June 7 a Univer
sity Counseling Service pro
posal containing this feature.
Chatfield said that this fig
ure was arrived at with the
percentage of counseling cost
as it relates to tuition. Chat-
field drew up the proposal
along with Clayton d'A. Ger
ken. Director of Counseling.
Chatfield said that up till
this time the University Coun
seling Service had performed
this function as sort of a
state agency" without bene
fit of state aid.
The service had been fur
nished at no charge. Student
counseling service for Univer
sity students will continue to
be given this way.
In counseling Nebraska high
school students, Chatfield said
that the Counseling Service
hoped to help eliminate schol
astic deficiencies of high
school students before their
entry in college.

Pre-Fab Registration
Faces Fall Tryout
The University of Nebraska
has laid the foundation for a
plan that they hope eventual
ly will eliminate the woes of
registration.
Mastermind of the plan
which will face its first test
with the new crop of fresh
men entering the University
this fall is Lee W. Chatfield,
director of the Junior Divi
sion. The plan is known as pre
package registration, or the
completion of . registration
for freshmen before they ar
rive at the University In the
fall. It is Chatfield's hope in
the future to be able to pre
package three out of four
freshmen entering the U n i
versity. If the plan works, we will
eventually be able to reduce
new student week from a full
week to two days, he says.
"Thus, we'll be able to com
bine New Student Week and
fraternity and sorority Rush
week into one calendar
week.
The fresbmaa pre-packaging
plan will get under way with ;

With the information from
a form filled out by freshman
and the results of placement
tests taken during the sum

send a packet to the new

and preference sheet, a des
cription of social studies for
choice by the student, a sheet
explaining how to remove de

When the student has re
