Holland, Cadet Sorenson: 'All Students Should Consider Summer Schooling University students should give serious thought to attend ing summer school according to Frank Sorenson, director of summer sessions. Sorenson said an accelerat ed educational program is vi tal to the student who wants to take a more responsible position in his community and to the. nation as a whole as America moves into the com plexities of the space age. "Students used to be busy during the summer ," be said, but they too are beginning to realize they want to hasten the day f graduation. "Education is the best route to better jobs," he said. "Students who atted sum mer school can earn a Bach elor's degree within three years after high school grad uation, and thus begin grad uate or professional work a year sooner, he said. i Students taking five year: courses such as engineering, Council Members Elect Gage President; Year's Programming Outlined By Norm Beatty Steve Gage was elected pres ident of the 1961-1962 Student Council Wednesday at the old Council s final meeting. There are two meetings scheduled for the newly-elected Council before the end of the semester, according to Gage who succeeds the out going president Ken Tem pero. Gage will be aided by four other elected holdover mem bers which include the new first vice president, Jim Sam ples and new second vice president, Don Witt. Al Plum- mer and Sukey Tin an will be the two remaining holdover members. The new president an nounced his general platform Wednesday just prior to his election, included is the adap tion of the internal reorgani zation of the Council formu lated and proposed by out going president Tempero. Two Subdivisions Under this plan, the Coun cil would be classified under two main subdivisions which, for all practical purposes, wrtnlri An awav with the tres- , mm-mittA svstpm ta deal Ctntent fVmnril hucinpss The purpose of this change is to establish better coordi nation of the Council's busi ness and legislation which would eventually allow the Council to serve its overall aims better according to Gage. In connection with this plank in his platform, Gage said be will advocate the ac ceptance of a Student Council worker system for -freshman and sophomore level students. Also proclaimed was a Stu dent Council advisor system composed of interested junior Ac Coed Selected Royal Princess A 19-year old home eco nomics major was named as the Varsity Dairy Club's "Dairv Oueen Princess" at the tenth annual Dairy Royal on Ag campus. Jean Olsen, a Chi Omega sophomore, was selected from a field of five finalists by the members of the Dairy Club. Leading eleven entrants in the annual Coed Cow Milking contest was Gay Nelson of Fedde Hall who milked over two pounds of milk in two and one-half minutes to take championship honors. j Senior Dvision Showman-' ship honors went to Dennis Defrain and Gene Graben stein was named Junior Divi sion Showmanship champion.: The Royal was held Thurs day evening in the horsebarn on at the College of Agri culture. 1 and architecture have tbe op portunity to complete the course in four years. Sorenson said the summer programs offer financial as well as academic advantages. "If a student were to work each summer after high school graduation and cave $5O9-$700 per summer, his total savings over four years would still be only half of the St,50-S,SOO he could earn during tbe added year f work gained by grad uating early. "And there is still time for plenty of vacation in August," Sorenson said. He said a more mature level of campus entertainment is planned during the summer months. This includes concerts, for eign films, off-campus tours to the Capitol, penitentiary, a tour of the Lincoln newspa pers, summer theater presen tations and a world affairs preview. and senior students who are non-Council members. "Such a program would es tablish pools of Council man power to justly handle any problems which confront the Council at any one time. It allows flexibility with the com mittee framework to compen sate for overworked council members and underworked council members," he noted. Acquaintance Under this plan Council members would aid the non Council members in acquaint ing them with Council func tioning. At the same time non-Council members would aid the regular members by helping with the busy work that binders the smooth op eration of the Council itself, Gage explained. Freshmen and sophomores who demonstrate an interest and an ability to contribute to the work or the Council would be recommended "as Two Artists Win Awards At Exhibition Two University representa tives won purchase awards at the 11th annual Mid-American exhibition at the Nelson Gallery-Atkins Museum.
