In the afternoon, the students meet individually with advisers to set a schedule
discusses enrollment procedures, student services and other areas of campus life.
After being advised, the students enroll in the classes they have picked.
Connie Pino, Bonner Springs senior who participated in the program in 1976, said she was glad she enrolled during her orientation session rather than waiting until the fall.

Although the majority of the students who attend the orientation program are from Kansas, Thompson said she expected their parents and their parents from all over the country.
"I had heard many, many bad things about kids stranded in Allen Field House."
THOMPSON SAID she anticipated that about 1,700 to 1,800 parents of new KU students would attend the orientation program this summer.
Of the 2,906 students who attended last year's program, about 500 came out of state, including 300 from Missouri, 79 from Arkansas and one from the Calm Zone. Thompson said.
PINO SAID when she came to the program it was "one long, hectic day," but that it made her more confident when she returned in the fall as a KU freshman.
Jim Kilian, Johnson senior who came to an orientation session in the summer of 1974, said he thought enrolling was the best part of the orientation program.
THROUGHOUT THE DAY, the students have a chance to take optional advance-placement exams, learn about KU's honors program, and explore the various schools talk about their curricula.
After enrollment the students return to their small groups to ask any last-minute questions.
"You have people leading you by the hand the whole way through it," he said.
"the parents are interested in what their children will be doing the next four years,"
Thompson said that while the students were involved with their activities, many of their parents were going through their own program.
The KU orientation program began in the mid-50s when it lasted two-a-half days, Thompson said. The program was shortened to one-a-half days by the mid-60s.
Thompson said there had been an increase in the number of parents participating in the program during the past few years.
SHE SAID the orientation program's format had been the same since about 1972, when the parents' segment was included in the program.
Orientation eases fall transition
Nine KU students said yesterday that they were ready to introduce incoming freshmen and transfer students and their parents to the University of Kansas this morning.
The University expects about 300 students and 200 parents to attend the first session of this course.

The other orientation leaders in the buzzing room agreed that the orientation job was a good one for students wanting to stay in Lawrence for the summer.
their reasons for becoming involved with the summer orientation sessions and about the intensive training they had gone through the past seven days.
"I had decided not to get a job in legal work this summer so I was looking for something that would take 60 hours a day," Ms. Bates said. "Vermont, Iowa City, Iowa, law student, said."
THE STUDENTS also said their recent training for orientation had been an excellent way to learn more about the University and the services it offers.
"I feel like I have had an intensive course,

Iowa."
Leslie Vance, Winterset, Iowa, senior said, "I have been on the campus for three years and I didn't know about all of the University organizations and services because our research program did a transfer student who did not attend orientation.
Throughout their training the students picked up what some people would call a "flood." Joseph R. Pearson Hall has the largest beer can collection west of the Mississippi River. The collection is valued at more than $1,000. Students can go on a trip to the Model A Car was found; the "Mouse House"

is an addition to Snow Hall that houses all of KU's experimental rats, and Watkins Hospital still has some Walnut beds, beds in which the students were trained to the Watkins family in the early 1900 s.
Larsen said, "I hope the kids come up to the University and get a good impression the first time. If we get them on their feet in the final year of college, we are successful in our crucial freshman year."

"When we do pre-advising in our small groups, we explain the Timetable and our schedule."
The student leaders were selected from 130 applicants according to Thompson.
"After the training, these students know the Timetable backward and forward." Linda Thompson, admissions coordinator for orientation said of the group leaders.
ACCORDING TO Thompson, training included presentations from a dean or representative from every KU academic faculty and the directors of the student affairs divisions.
Student Body Vice President George Gomez, who has been an orientation leader for three years, said he enjoyed the program because there was still personal contact between the visitors, and the orientation leaders.
"We used hypothetical situations and role-playing in their selection to look for problem-solving abilities, maturity and understanding of the higher education in general," Thompson said.
