KU Student One of Seven
A KU student is one of seven students across the nation attending the General Motors summer program for outstanding students in industrial design in Detroit.
Frederick A. Flock, Shawnee Mission senior is an industrial design major at KU.
The 10-week program is sponsored by the styling division of General Motors. The students work on a special design project under the supervision of General Motors personnel and an industrial design educator.
The design project for this summer is a practical four-passenger turbine driven vehicle. The project includes all aspects of design from original drawings, to sectional drawings, complete detailed drawings and scale models.
In past years as many as 12 have been invited to work under this program. This year the project was limited to seven.
THE WARNING—Here's the sign that will greet motorists when approaching KU. For those who have permits or are visitors, it means nothing. But for those who don't, it means turn around.
Traffic Control To Start Sept. 3
Limited access to the KU campus becomes a reality on September 3.
This is the date the five traffic control booths move into operation, and all but six categories of traffic will be banned from 7 a.m.-3:30 p.m. Monday through Friday.
The control program was conceived last spring when the original program to increase parking space was quashed by lack of funds. The administration felt that the heavy amount of traffic required a control and launched this alternative program.
Kuhl Preliminary Winner in Contest
Condon Kuhl, a KU design student, is a preliminary winner in the 1982 Sterling Silver Student Design Competition, sponsored by the Sterling Silversmiths of America. Mr. Kuhl's design for a sterling silver pitcher with an ebony handle was selected as one of the seven best entries from the hundreds of entries from design students throughout the country.
The competition is sponsored annually by the Silversmiths to encourage design students to apply their talents to the creation of original sterling silver hollowe pieces suitable for today's homes, and to give the young designers opportunities to work in sterling silver.
The seven preliminary winning designs will be interpreted in sterling by member companies of the Sterling Silversmiths of America. Winners will be determined in the final judging to be held at the Museum of Contemporary Crafts in New York City in October.

Freshmen Will Know Advisers
The incoming freshman students in the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences will be notified of their student advisers before they report to KU for orientation week, Dean Francis Heller announced today.
In past years the freshmen have not been notified of their advisers until after the dean's meeting during orientation week.
HELLER SAID the College office would mail packets containing a booklet on the College, the adviser assignment and appointment card to the freshmen about Aug. 15.
The advisers have always been selected and appointments made before the student arrived, but this year he will be notified earlier than in past years.
The new program will affect three- fourths of the entering freshmen.
Heller said that the new policy is "a step forward" in making incoming students feel as individuals.
ORIENTATION WEEK for new students not attending a KU Preview will begin Saturday, Sept. 8. They will be required to take placement examinations. That night the Kansas Union will hold an open house.
The students who did attend Previews will arrive Sunday, Sept. 9. A new student convocation will be held with receptions for new students and their families being held afterwards at Allen Field House and at Lawrence churches and student religious centers.
The new student induction ceremony will be held at 7 p.m. The students will gather at the Campanile for the march to the Stadium. Allen Field House will be used in case of rain.
THE REMAINDER of the week will include physical examination evaluations, individual conferences with the faculty, enrollment and social activities such as picnics, watermelon feeds, activities carnival, traditions rally and street dance.
Classes will begin Monday, Sept. 17. The first all-university convocation will be held that morning.
From the opening of the University in 1866 through 1904, Chapel exercises were the first event of each school day. Currently the opening convocation, held on the first day of classes each fall follows what across the years has become a standardized pattern of traditional hymns and responsive readings, with greetings to the students and faculty from state and university officials.
Students Work In Washington
Two KU students are serving in the agency for International Development this summer along with 220 other youths who are participating in the White House Summer Seminar program.
They are Roger T. Baker, Alexandria, Va. sophomore and Mrs. Nancy Borel Ellis, Falls Church, Va. senior.
THE SUMMER SEMINAR was originated by President Kennedy for the purpose of acquainting talented young people with government service and operations. The President has expressed the hope that more youths will be attracted to public service careers. Those assigned to AID are performing a variety of clerical and other essential jobs to help the U.S. program of foreign assistance.
Baker was among the youths welcomed to the Seminar by the President, who said he hoped "some tired old myths" about Government service would be exploded for the students as a result of their work with the Government.
"You may have been told, for example, that Government workers are clock-watchers," said the President. "You will soon find that the vast majority of them are dedicated not to their pay checks but to the job to be done. . . ."
BAKER IS ASSIGNED to the AID Science Conference staff as a clerk messenger. In past summers he has held temporary positions with the Department of Defense.
Mrs. Ellis is assigned to the AID Office of Program Support, Statistics and Reports Division as a clerk-typist. In previous summers she has held temporary positions with the International Cooperation Administration and the Central Intelligence Agency as a clerk-typist. She is on the Kappa Kappa Gamma Panhellenic Board for the Washington area.
Chancellor's Farewell
To you, the Summer Session students of 1962, it is my opportunity here to say farewell and to tell you how pleasant it has been having you on the campus.
Some of you have been here for institutes, some for graduate study, others for regular undergraduate work. But all of you have been part of the largest Summer Session ever to take place on this campus. And all of you have exhibited in your own way the urgency of our times to learn as much as possible as quickly as possible so that we can get about not only our work but the world's work.
Some of you will be returning to join us in our academic endeavors in the fall. Some of you will be returning next summer to pursue your educational goals. Some of you will return years hence when the opportunity arises. Others may never formally return to our classrooms.
But on all of you the University has placed its brand. From the moment you entered this institution you became a Jayhawker, and this distinction you will carry with you always. Whether you return to us as students, I hope you will return to us often as part of the University family. For just as this University is part of you, you are part of this University.
Until we meet again. . . .
W. CLARKE WESCOE Chancellor
