Before advertising any evening activity, it is necessaryto have the activity recorded on the Social Calendar in the office of the Dean of Women. The Dean of Women, acting in this scheduling capacity, represents trhe College Social Commi~tee and Club Initiations N ..0 t and, under its instruction, seeks ,to maintain a well-balanced and satisfactory social program. Permission Jor scheduling an event may be denied the general Social Calendar or the Calendar for a par:ticular organization seems over-crowded, or when the maintenance of high academic standin the college would seem to discourage the activity in question. A form, Student Social Function and Trips, is to be obtained at the office of the Dean of Women by any organization planning a major social event. The form is to be completed and approved by the organization adviser and returned to ,the Dean of Women at least one week before the date of the activity.

Any mode of dress or any actions which attract undue attention are undesirable. or 39 Extra-curricular Program Every person who graduates from Edinboro and becomes a teacher will be expected to assume leadership in community life and school activities. In a large percentage of casesthe teacher will be expected to sponsor clubs and other student groups. Therefore, it is very important that every student in college become accustomed to certain activities and familiar with the techniques of discussion, parliamentary law, record keeping, and ,the general promotion of student activities. Even if a teacher never becomes a club sponsor, the educational value of participation in these activities in college is pef!haps as great as that of some course of study. Therefore, i,t seems advisa:ble that each student become a member of some club or other activity aside from athletics. In the College year of 1956-57, the following plan of extra-curricular activities will be in effect: 1. At the beginning of the semestereach student will ,be given the opportunity to choose any club or activity in which he is interested. 2. A club or activity may be set up on petition of not fewer ,than fifteen students with the approval of the Committee on Student Activities. 3. All organizations will provide for regular meetings. 4. No meeting shall be 'held without at least one faculty advisor present. 5. Each cl.ub or a~tivi,ty is to choose its own Faculty AdvIsor subject to the consent of the faculty member concerned and the approval of the Committee on Student Activities and of the President of the College. The Faculty Advisor is not to be responsible for planning the program of 40 I the aCtivity since his relationship is only advisory. 6. Each activity is to have a Secretary, whose duty it shall be to record and report its membership and program to ,the Office of the Dean of ~ omen. .Freshman Customs Bcyobserving freshman customs in the proper spirit every student can acquire ,the qualities which I will make him a worthy member of ,his collegean attitude of friendliness towards all other college students, a respect for the standards and traditions of his school, and a familiarity with ,the things that constitute its own special trademark, i.e., its cheers, its Alma Mater and other songs. In addition, the new student will learn that he belongs not only to the freshman class, but to the college as a whole. The meaning of and regula,tions for observing these ~ustol?S w~ll be announced to all freshmen at theIr OrIentation Program. T,he following rules governing freshman customs have been set forth by the Student Council: 1. There shall be a "Big Sister" for every freshman girl. 2. A delegation of upperclassmen will arrive early, before registration, for the purpose of meeting the freshmen who will arrive Saturday afternoon. I 3: Ther~ will be a two-v:'eeks'Initi~tion ,~er.iod, durmg which freshmen will wear 10 x 10 SIgnS and dinks. 4. The 10"x 10" signs will be standard cards. The individual names will ,belettered in by upperclass art students volunteering to do the ,task. 41. i 5. Freshmen must learn the Alma Mater, cheers, constitution, and obher contents of the Handbook wi.thin the ,two weeks' period. 9. Make the acquaintance of your faculty advisor and remember he stands ready to help you if you have difficulties or problems. 6. At rhe end of the two weeks' period a "Little Service" will be held, at which time dinks and signs will be removed. 7. On Homecoming Day the freshmen will don their dinks again and lead the parade wirh their floa' 8~.Enforcement of these rules will be vested in the Tribunal, which is the Student Council. .
