Thurgood Marshall
In Orientation—Mulligan
To Address Forum
By DANNY BAKFR
The 1968 Summer Orientation
sessions included transfer
students for the first time
since the program was gcgun
in 1966. according to Michael V.
Mulligan, director of orienta
tion.
A total of 1476 transfer stu
dents attended orientation
sessions, as well as 2499
freshmen.
"This year we stressed the
parents program. Mulligan
said. ‘ The parents were kept
apart from their children and
took part in a different pro
gram They were able to meet
with faculty members, adminis
trators. upper class students
and members of the Division
of Student Affairs. ”
Many parents even sampled
residence hall living by staying
in a residence hall for the night
In addition, the parents were
taken on a two-hour campus
tour by the dean of men. On
several occasions, parents
came to an orientation confer
ence which their son or daugh
ter was not attending.
A total of 13 fresmen ses
sions were held from June 20
through August 6. with another
session for freshmen enrolled
in summer school Two of
these sessions were held for
certain selected students with
high aptitudes and achievement.
From August 9 through 20. nine
sessions were held for trans
fer students
The first day of the regular
conferences included a general
convocation. United States and
Georgia history exams, meet
ings with academic deans cam
pus tour, registration infor
mation. and a sample of what a
typical class might be like at
the University. The second day
schedule called for ROTC orien
tation for male students, a
presentation of a ‘Panorama
of Student Life.” meetings with
the dean of men and dean of
women, and academic advise
ment and registration
“Most of the students who
attended summer orientation
are now completely regis
tered.” Mulligan commented,
“even down to having their IDs
made and paying their fees.

that a student attending a ses
sion in August would have the
same chance of obtaining those
courses at certain hours as a
student in a June session.
“Due to this summer regis
tration. he said, “registration
for fall quarter should not be
as slow since many of the con
fused freshmen will not be at
the Coliseum It is possible
that preregristration during
spring quarter may have to be
increased in order to give re
gular students a better chance
at courses than new students
Orientation leaders included
Patricia Errigo. Susan Field.
Lee Lovvorn. Betty Oliver. Stel
la Williams, Jerry Guthrie,
John Hudgins. James Panned.
Jerry Priekett and Randall Sea-
bolt.
“I think the leaders did an
excellent job of representing
the University and the student
body," Mulligan said. “They
worked around 12 hours a day
and never slowed down from
June till August. "
According to Mulligan, the
1968 program was basically the
same as the 1967 program.
“The biggest change was the
addition of the nine sessions
for transfer students. We re
always striving for better or
ganization and communica
tions Each summer it seems
that more and more people on
campus are getting involved in
the program This is probably
the only activity on campus
that involves so many different
people from so many different
University activities
“It s becoming a real full
time job. But I think the pro
gram has done what it is sup
posed to do and a lot more
Most of the students are really
anxious to start school here
