Nearly 6,800 Students Register Nearly 6,800 students have enrolled in summer school this year, an increase of al most 500 students over last year, said Frank E. Sorenson, director of Summer Sessions. At least 500 of these stu dents are 1967 high school graduates. Sorenson ex plained that these students are encouraged to begin their university education in the summer, whereas several years ago recent high school graduates were advised to wait until fall. "Summer school is an ex cellent way to become ori ented to the fall program and helps students adjust to cam pus life, making work easier for them in the fall," Soren son said. 'Remember Bill Shake speare, who couldn't teach 'Hamlet' in Beatrice today because of lack of education. whenever you become tired of studying." advises Mrs. Jesse Woodward of Beatrice. A coed of yesterday and today, Mrs. Woodward started attending the univer sity in 1922 and left after two years. 4'I told my parents that I was like a tight bud in school, and I convinced them that I wouldn't blossom and flower until I tried something on my own," she said. In 1963 she returned to the university and traduated from Teachers College in 1965 at the age of 59. The tall, round woman chuckled when she said. "When I first came here I was a cute little coed and the university was also small. To day the university is much larger. . ." Students today are more sophisticated and mature, she said, compared to students in 1922. Students Speak Out Students used to simply re cite what they read and re peat what the instructor said, she explained. Now more stu dents have their own opinions and express them even when these opinions are contrary to the professor's.

Sayings Tabooed "This generation hates phonies and doesnt like dried out sayings they dont think will work," she said. "The attitude toward sex on campus is different too. There is more public love making. If you go into a dorm at night just before closing hours you see couples tangled up in 'tiny little knots," she explained. "The students in 1922 did the same thing, but never in groups or in public.
