Try 'Up-and At-Enr Approach By Sondra Whalen With ten week exams scheduled for this week and next, the art of test-taking be comes more and more pertinent in the eyes of University students. Fear and over-concern about a lest looms as a problem for many students. "Too much anxiety is likely to impair the student," Dr. William Brill, thief of the mental hygiene department of Student Health, said. "However, a little anxiety is good for the student, just as it is for athletes." Tp-and-At-Em' According to an article by Stanley Jacobs in the November issue of Today's Health, an "up and at-em" feeling condi tions students mentally and physically. However, an actual fear will leave a stu dent tense and perhaps with an acute men tal block. Dr. Brill related that some University students do come to Student Health overly concerned about a current examination. "We try 1o mpke them see the exum as just one part of their life situation," he stud. "We also try to discover their reason for being in school, and if they are happy 111 'if 11" i X law training program. !

Keep Up Work He emphasized that students who keep their work up day by day are less likely to become overly concerned about an exam. "However, about crammine. 1 feel it us no to the individual student." Dr. Briil ex plained. "Some students do very well by carmming for a test, while others suffer from it." Usually students who expect to do well on a test will do better than those who ex pect failure Physical Preparedness Be prepared physically as well as emo tionally, Jacobs' article advises. Try to pick a seat with good light and near a window. Before writing, students should read through the entire test and allocate their time spent on each question accordingly. Common errors to watch for include mis spelled words, punctuation mistakes, slop py writing, rijiht answers on the wronsj line and puzzling abbreviations. Proof reading should precede the handing in of any examination. 1 wide." 1 Of the SI houses contacted .

Almost every group tnat voted tins way i said members felt finalists Each of the groups voting against any change reported that "politicking is their rea son for voting in this manner. It is felt that if candidates are announced ahead of time, undue politics would be brought into the election." Two years ago the Student Council made Tassels change its constitution. Before that, only junior Tassels were can didates. Each Tassel then voted for five candidates and these five were presented to the student body as the queen finalists. One Candidate Entered As the system works now, the constitution reads that every organized house enters one candidate, which may either be a junior Tassel or a substitute from the organi zation. These candidates go before a panel which, according to the constitution, is to judge them on 1, school spirit and loyalty; 2, leadership; and 2, poise and personality. j Beauty is not listed in the constitution as one of the I qualifications. However, ac cording to Miss Humphrey, (the judges tills year added a j fourth item "general appear ance," in their consideration of candidates, i Close Voting Discovered The Daily Nebraskan has ! learned unofficially that some 950 students voted for the Homecoming queen, and that j fewer than 10 votes separated the first, second and third place winners. Miss Humph rey was unable to verify this, since such elections are "se cret." The general trend in voting on whether to change or not was that houses were either almost unanimously for a change, or unanimously against one. Specific suggestions for change included: That voting on the final ists be held all day Friday instead of only at the rally that night. Th a t finalists be an nounced at least a day before the voting. That pictures of candi dates be posted at the voting places. That mens' houses, rath er than Tassels, nominate the candidates.
