XLVIII, lb. 17 ____ COLUMBIA SOUTH CAROLINA9 FEBRUARY 7, 1958 .~ b Comm itt On Re-A Two resolutions were pass< the faculty, according to Rem concerns readmission of stude other concerns minimum sct The resolutions read as follow Educational ..aFund Asks. Student Aid Student goveraments are now being invited to take part in an experimental program of inter national education and fund rais ing. The program has been con ceived by World University Serv ice and the U. S. National Stu dent Association. The key fea ture of this program is a personal conversation between one campus WUS committee member and each student on campus sometime dur ing .the academic year. - USNSA, in proposing this pro gram, states that "in many na tions higher education suffers from chronic conditions so serious that few present-day iemergen cles' involve equal misfortune." Through WUS "material relief" reaches students and universities in 40 nations. WUS "national committees," located throughout Asia, Africa, Europe, the Middle East, and North America, distri bute books, establish health cen ters and finance student dormi tories. The special WUS committee handling this program-if the student government or WUS com mittee agrees-will divide up the list of students among committee members. Committee members are asked by USNSA to take time to learn about WUS and student conditions abroad. Then they will see each student and talk to. him about student and university con ditions abroad. . USNSA will send regular re ports to campuses who take part in the program. Each campus will be able to compare its own work with that of - others. The suggested goal of this program is $1 per student, but USNSA suggests that WUS can use well every dollar it receives. * This program is conceived as a supplement to ay existing WUS program on the campus or as a new program. Student go, ernments may enter the program now or until October 1, 1968. ~~LAW AWARD WINNERS AT I N. Sapp Award, presented to thal IaI4 to it are WWSam Il sus 198S winner; Sesph D.

"Because of the short period available between the last exam Ination In the fall semester and the last date for registration in the spring semester, as well as the complications arising out of the heavy incidence of flu among students during the fall semester, the Committee proposes- that all students enrolled in the fall semester except those now on a condition be permitted to continue on through the spring semester without the necessity of petition ing for readmission; provided, however, that all students who fail to earn at least 18 hours in academic subjects, counting both fall and spring semesters, shall be ineligible for further attend ance without readmission by the Committee."
