An extensive program of freshman orientation bas been resumed, having been relaxed during the emergency period. Freshman rules, unpopular in some quarters, plus the distin­tinctive blue cap bearing the hoped for '51, are back in actual operation.

Violators of rules suffered minor indignities to the a­musement of others, including other freshmen. This semb­lance of regimentation, understandably irksome to G. I. stu­dents, does tend toward the moulding of spirit, though it be but that the freshmen stand along against the world.

James Collins, president of the student council, bas worked untiringly to improve the position of the council in this college. His attendance late this summer at the conven­tion of the National Student organization in Madison, Wis­consin, indicates a desire to learn and incorporate new ideas and practices into the local student council.

Without pointing a finger at any particular person or group, it is generally assumed that the student council of Glenville State was sh<>rn of most of its executive power and was drifting, so to speak, into the doldrums. Much may be attributed to the war and its wide-sweeping effects, most important being the critically reduced enrollment.
