Average monthly starting sal ry of male graduates in all elds is expected to be $485 when iey begin their first jobs in June -$5,820 a year. Starting salary >r graduates last June averaged 5,700. Cost of acquiring an education >r a resident of this state at the niversity is about $1,100 yearly -$4,400 for a four-year course, icluding housing and meals.

Robert Whitaker asked if the students could trust themselves to give a decent or useful seminar. Jim Truesdale felt that it would be possible to contact all types of speakers. le said that there are some students who may have to be reached by an emotional point of view because they have had no political theory. Charles Behling said that semi nars make an appeal to the emo tions. If the seminar is held, it might serve as a conveyor of emo tional panic and suspicion. The opinions of most of the speakers seemed to be that a seminar should be held if the right speakers can be brought in. The issue will be decided next week at the regularly scheduled meeting of Student Senate.
