~ WELCOME STUDENTS
The 1941 Summer Session has opened, and the
Kansan wishes to extend a hearty welcome to all
students. Already a bankers’ clinic is underway,
and next week Kansas teachers and administrators
will take over with their conference+on curriculum.
_ Also next week the first of two insurance meet-
ings will be held. Following that, Prof. Bert Nash’s
reading institute will hold the center of the stage.

Dean D. M. Swarthout has released the schedule
of musical events and lectures for the summer, and
from all indications, students will be well enter-
tained.

In addition, Dr. F. C. Allen’s recreational pro-
gram will provide ample opportunity for athletic

activity for every person enrolled in school. In many ©

ways there is a better recreational program in the
summer than in the regular winter term. ‘The sum-
mer schedule is so inclusive, that no student is left
out.

The enrollment this year is somewhat less, but
that must be blamed on the selective service. Doubt-

less, enrollments in all universities and colleges will
be much less from now on—at least until the present.
