THE PANTHER
October, 1963
Freshman guides helped bring 300 new students into college life.
Nine Papers Planned
Nine editions of the Clark
College student newspaper have
been planned for this year.
The paper will be produced
largely by journalism students,
but will depend heavily on con
tributions by students interest
ed in becoming members of the
staff as well as upon reporters
for campus organizations and
faculty members.
Editions will appear during
the first week of each month, or
in conjunction with some spe
cial campus observance.
Students-at-large are invited
to contribute editorials which
will be selected for use on the
basis of timeliness, effectiveness
of presentation, importance in
terms of the campus population
and space limitations.
