Students Should
Make Contacts
Mr. Basil M. Parks, director of
placement, believes that the fol
lowing excerpt from the "General
Electric Educational Service News"
will be of interest to all the senior
class.
"Last spring there seemed to be
a general feeling among the stu
dents that it was not worth while
bothering with industrial contacts,
a sort of fatalistic attitude, and
many of the graduating seniors
made no contacts with industry as
they expected to go directly into
military service. We are afraid
these individuals may have a dif
ficult time making effective con
tacts with industry on their release
from the armed forces. It is highly
important therefore that the boys,
even though they are sure they
are going into military service, de
velop their contacts with industry
while they are still on the campus.
They may be assured that on their
release from service they will be
needed just as badly as they are
needed now and by taking a little
time to go through the interview
ing procedure they will find that
contacts already established are
easier to continue and their even
tual placement in industry will be
a great deal easier than if they
have to start from scratch."

Scholarship
Lowered By
Panhellenic
Panhellenic Council passed a
motion Tuesday allowing pledges
with a 5.000 average on at least 12
credit hours, exclusive of physical
ed(ucation, orientation or band, to
be Initiated. Persons to be initiated
must have a 5.000 on all subjects
taken the previous semester and
they must have at least 12 credit
hours.
Members of Panhellenic felt that
the pledge who went through rush
week without having a necessary
scholarship average or having a
5.000 average minimum should be
allowed to become an "active."
Rush week was tentatively set
for the first week of April, fin
m'fediately following mid-semester
examinations.

Social Workers'
First Work'hop
Professor Walter C. Bent rup, di
rector of the School of Social
Work, headed a regional workshop
of the American Association of
Social Workers held in Atlanta
recently. The workshop was the
first of its kind and will he held
next year.
"The main issue discussed at
the meeting was the public listing
of the relief rolls," said Mr. Ben
trup. The workshop went on ree
ord as saying that it is question
aide whether the public would
really look at the rolls if they
were made public. In two states,
Indiana and Illinois, the rolls have
been open for inspection. A sur
ey pi ovvd thai, in iht first nonth
of public inspection of them in
Chicag;, 24 people looked at thei.
Of the 24, 15 were reporters for
the Chicago newspapers looking
for a story. In Indiana only two
people bothered to inspect them
in two months they have been open.
Mr. Bentrup wvent on to say that
"the psychological and social fac
tors affecting the lives of in
dividuals on relief rolls make it
mandatory that the rolls he closed
from public perusal."
It was brought ulp at the meet
ing that the public thinks social
workers are spending too much
monmey in their work. The public
is obviously unaware that of last
year's budget only 3.4 per cent
went to social agencies.
There were 105 participants at
the workshop. South Carolina
contributed 12 and its delegates
programmed the meeting.
