Frosh Spout; Principals Listen At Conference
By Gabby Wilson
The freshmen let off a little steam today.
High school principals visited KU today to confer with their former students who are now freshmen here.
Slow Start — Then "Pow"
It seemed funny to hear these freshmen complaining about the same things which I did two years ago. I wanted to tell them "not to fight it" but rather to roll with it.
It started slowly and then began to build up.
High school principal: Are you in any activities?"
Student: No. I think I should study rather than run around."
HSP — "You can't study all the time and be productive. You have to learn to understand people while you are here."
S — "I have a little trouble finding enough time to study all that is given me."
HSP "Keep a schedule of your time. Money gets away by nickels and dimes. Time gets away by 15 minutes and half hours."
HSP — "Do you like the way you are being taught? Or is there a teacher you don't like?"
I Don't Like . . .
This was the question that primed the pump. All of them began to tell about particular teachers whom they do not like.
S "My chem teacher shifts back and forth over the book and it keeps me mixed up. He wrote the book and really knows the stuff, but he can't convey the idea to the average student. I get more out of the book. It doesn't mix me up."
Can't Find Him
S “I have trouble seeing my teacher.”
HSP — "Doesn't he take the time to see you?"
Agreed: Fraser's Bad
S — "No, it's not that. It's that there are 627 people in my psychology class and from where I sit, I can't see him. But sometimes I can hear him."
S — 'I can't stand Fraser Theater. It is always too hot and I can't hear. I have chemistry in there.'
S — "They seem to crowd all the big classes in there (Fraser Theater)."
S —"I have psychology in there and there is no ventilation and almost no windows. How are you supposed to learn in a place like that?"
S — "Yeah. Every word that is said in there sounds muffled. It is hot and stuffy and that makes you sleepy."
English Inconsistent?
S —‘The grades in the English department are inconsistent. A theme in an honors class might get an 'A' and the same one in a regular class would get a 'D.' I know, I got the 'D.'
S — "I don't like the women's dorms. I can't sleep or study because of the noise."
S — "And those floor meetings with a counselor who just sits around and cusses is a big waste of time."
S — "My counselor doesn't cuss, but I have to agree that the floor meetings are the biggest waste of time on the Hill."
On and on went the flow of complaints which assaulted the University. The principals made notes to turn in to the University. Pleas about Fraser and English and others, all which I imagine will go unattended as they have in the past.
I sat there and thought, "Don't fight it, roll with the punch, learn to live with it."
ASC Passes Resolution for Bicycle Parking Areas
Two-wheeled vehicles soon may have their own parking area and parking stickers.
The All Student Council passed a resolution last night which could result in racks for non-motorized and motorized bicycle parking.
The resolution will be taken to the All University Traffic and Safety Committee, the policy making group for traffic problems.
Racks Requested
Racks were specifically requested for areas in the vicinity of Strong Hall and Watson Library. The resolution asked for a specific area in each student parking zone for the parking of non-motorized and motorized bicycles.
When introduced, the resolution dealt with motorized bicycles. The council amended the resolution to include non-motorized bicycles.
Asks $2 Fee
The last section of the resolution provides for a $2 yearly fee for parking stickers for motorized bicycles. Non-motorized bicycles are not to be included in the payment of fees.
The council elected six members to represent the University ASC at the
