"When a University admits four to five thousand new stu
dents for a Fall Quarter, it is impossible to orient each of
these students in a personal way during an orientation
week prior to the beginning of classes
This is why the University of Georgia initiated a summer
orientation program in 1966." commented Michael V. Mulligan.
Director of Orientation.
Because of the rapid growth of the University and in
creased enrollment, administrative officials felt that summer
conferences, including all new Fall Quarter freshmen, were
necessary to orient each student in a personal way.
The prospective freshman students have the opportunity to
become familiar with campus facilities, talk about college
life to upperclassmen orientation leaders, take tests to
exempt courses, meet in small groups to discuss the results of
their interest inventory and meet with academic advisors.
They may also completely register for Fall Quarter if they
desire.
Mulligan said that some of the purposes of the program
are "to make the student (eel he is an individual and part of
the University, to reduce the anxiety of going to college, to
get to know other students, faculty and administration and
to learn their way around the campus."
Some of the activities include a campus tour with Dean
Tate, meetings with the Dean of Women and the Dean of
Men to discuss rules and regulations, skits of college life,
slides of library facilities, and special classroom situations
set up with faculty members to show what a typical class
might be like.
This summer there are eleven regular 2-day conferences
and two 3-day advanced placement conferences. The entire
program lasts from June 20-Aug 5. In addition there will be
nine one-dav conferences for transfer students from Aug 8-20.
There are an anticipated 2000 transfer students to enter in
fall.
In addition to the student orientation program there is a
special program just for parents Mulligan said that Ihe
purpose of this program is "to make parents feel a part of the
University of Georgia, and to give them the feeling that their
son or daughter will be in good hands and will receive help if
they seek it."
Mulligan said the program also informs parents of the
services offered to their children and informs them of the
typical problems students face during the year." It also gives
■ parents Ihe opportunity to meet faculty on an individual
basis "
Many parents even sample residence hall living by staying
in a residence hall for the night They stay in Russell Hall.
In addition. Ihe parents were taken on a two hour campus
tour by the Dean of Men, William Tate, and were shown a
f ilm of sports highlights at UGA.

are required to stay in a residence hall during the ses
sion. The women students are housed in Hill Hall and the
men in Mell Hall. Students spend one night in the residence
hall unless they are attending an advanced placement session
in which case they spend two nights.
A student pays $15 if he attends a regular session and $20
for an Advanced Placment Session. Included in these fees are
meals, housing, cost of Interest Inventory materials, and
other materials.
All entering freshmen complete an Interest Inventory
which is interpreted during their visit to campus for summer
orientation. Each student is sent an occupation interest Survey
at home so that the Survey can be completed and returned to
the University Guidance Center for scoring into an interest
pattern. The unique interests of each student are discussed in
small groups of students with a counselor for group leader.
The results of each student s Interest Inventory are furnished
to him during the small group meetings.
All students attending a conference are given the opportunity
to take the United States and Georgia History examination,
which is required for graduation from the University.
Certain selected students with high aptitudes and achieve
ment scores are invited to attend one of two sessions for stu
dents eligible to take advanced placement tests for exemp
tion or credit in basic courses in English, math, political
science, chemistry and biology
Some of the students in this category are also invited to
participate in the Honors Program.
Registration includes students enrolling in classes, having
their I D. pictures taken and paying fees. This program is de
signed to prepare students for better adjustment during the
first few quarters on campus and to eliminate the
necessity of freshmen participating in Fall Quarter regis
tration.
Last year 85 per cent of the freshmen completely registered
and paid their fees in the summer
Mulligan said there are hundreds of people involved in the*
orientation program who help to make it successful. He
