EXCESSIVE ABSENCE REPORTS

Please record all absences, and report
to the College Office on excessive
absence cards students whose attendance
is unsatisfactory, We should like for
you to pay particular attention to stu-
dents who miss classes on Friday after~
noons.

WHY HAVE ATTENDANCE REPORTS AND

REPORTS OF UNSATISFACTORY WORK?
We frequently tell people that students
at the University receive individual
attention, We point with some pride to
the provisions which have been made on
this campus for the student to obtain
friendly counsel and guidance through
our faculty advisory system, the deans'
offices, and the offices of the men's
and women’s student advisers, Parents

lost among more than four thousand
other students,

The parents of a considerable number of
students come to the College Office to
disouss the progress of their children
4n school, Parents expest us to know
whether their ohildren are attending
classes regularly or not and they expect
us to know what kind of work their ohil-
dren are doing, This is one reason we
ask for reports on excessive absences
and on unsatisfactory scholastic work,
Another reason is the fact that this in-
formation enables us to help students
who get off to a bad start,

SOME NEEDS

The College of Liberal Arts and Sciences
4s in a most hearty and satisfactory way
adapting its work to the war needs of
our students and community. These imme-
diate needs are of tremendous importance
and will receive our thorough and hearty
attention,

But we must at the same time remember
post-war needs-~the needs of the days
of peace which are to come, And in
addition, of all people in the world,
it is given to us to remember that
"Man shall not live by bread alone"-—
we must remember the total needs of
life, So it is fitting that we ponder
the words of President John J, Tigert
of the University of Florida when he
says, "The effort of avoiding the pit-
falls of utilitarian and cash value
types of education must be continued,"

VICTORY

(Found on the body of an Australian sol-
dier )

Ye that have faith to look with fearless
eyes
Beyond the tragedy of a world at strife,
And know that out of death and night ©
shall rise
The dawn of ampler life:
Rejoice, whatever anguish rend the heart,
That God has given you the priceless
dower
To live in these great times and have
your part
In Freedom's orowning hour,
That ye may tell your sons who see the

light

High in the heavense=their heritage to
takew-=
"I saw the powers of darkness take their
flight;

I saw the morning break,”
