The G-ENESEO LAMRON visiles to extend a h e a rty welcome to the incoming Freshmen and to the rest of the upper classmen —ivek-orne back! The student body was saddened by the death of Barbara E. Milks this past summer. Barbara, whose home wa.s in Ellicott- ville, was stricken with polio. “ 'There’ll Be Some Changes Made !”— that is the title of a once popular song, Sounds casual, doesn’t it? Yet, when we take time, out to think things over, we realize the truth in that one short line. There have been a lot of changes made and there are many more to come. Take a look a t our campus for a top example. It looked quite a bit different some time ago, and though it doesn’t appeal1 tc look like much of anything right now, there Tl be a great difference when the landscaping is finally completed. One doesn’t have to look outside of the building to notice new things— classes have been changed, offices moved, and above (all* t h e r e ’ll be a lot of new faces around here these next few weeks and perhaps some of the old faces we expected to see won’t be around. In a short time, November to be exact, there Tl be a change that will affect not only us, but onr entire country, and for that matter, the entire world. Oneeould ramble on indefinitely about tlie subject of change, but we all realize that i t ’s constantly going on because whether uncertainty is created or not. time dors not stand still and prog- © ress earn not he held up. Our new Fresh and tlie old-timers around here are going to have t> i get ust'd to m»t only the minor changes here at school but tlie major ones whieh affect all of us in the V. S. as well. Tlie main thing is that we take these things in our stride and in spite of the present air of uneertainty, plant our feet firmly and stand fust to make this year as successful and happy as possible. Going, Going, Almost Gone! SEPTEMBER 19, 1952 fo U a t c U a ?

This year we thought we’d take an uppesclassman’s view. Sunday we were somewhat shocked and had rather mixed emotions on seeing the razed ground where Old Main once stood. Though som e of us had seldom, if ever, been in the building, it was a part of Geneseo and one we had seen day after day as .part of the campus.

Espy Function of Evaluation Committee Explained By SCG Group Following Conference i— Old Wain, n o lo n g e r a G e n e s e o landm a r k , w a s th e victim o f c h a n g e and p r o g r e s s . Final dem o li t i o n w a s accom p l i s h e d last s u m m e r . P h o t o s ta k e n b y th e L i v i n g s t o n R e p u b lican s h o w Old M a in a s it used to loo-k and Old Main in its final s t a g e s o f e x i s t e n c e . During the latter part of last year there occured a great deal of confusion, excitement, and mystery concerning the functions and procedures of the recently created Professional Evaluation Committee. Due to a general furor among the student body a com mittee of four that include Ronald Hilton, Jean Mary Ikeda, Charles Sullivan, and myself as chairman was formed by Student Council to conduct an informal inquiry into the entire situation. A question and answer period was conducted between the Eval uation Committee and the Student Council group. The following con clusions may be drawn from the discussion: 1. The committee is concerned with probation, dismissal and policy towards scholarship (Hon ors, Deans List, etc.) 2. It is very seldom indeed that the committee will act upon one factor when considering dismis sal or probation. Rather it takes into consideration a number of factors such as emotional stability, scholarship, attendance, etc. 3. In the case of excessive ab sences for cuts) there is a definite procedure involving student, tea cher, faculty counselor, and Dean of the College. Every effort is made to clear up the problem be fore it is brought to the attention of the committee. 4. In all of the cases the com mittee makes a definite attem p t to help and rehabilitate rather than simply dismiss or abolish the individual. 5. The committee's viewpoints in a memoranda whieh was made and policies were first published available to the student body on March 1, 1952. Copies of this mimeographed sheet will be made available by any member of the evaluation committee to any stu dent requesting them. Another reference source is the March 21, 1952, issue of the Lamron which discusses the evaluation committee in detail. 6. The members of the commit tee will gladly answer all ques tions brought to them by indivi dual students pertaining to poli cies, procedure, or functions. The committee consists of Mrs. Alice Rider, Dean Kenneth Freeman, Miss Rosalind Fisher, Dr. Louise Kuhl, and Mr. Joseph Cole. 7. The student group consisting of those previously mentioned will be willing and anxious to answer all questions with regard to the evaluation committee. The general purpose of this column today has been twofold. First of all it has been to shed some light upon the general act ivities of the heretofore omnipot ent scholarship committee. The second purpose, and this perhaps is the most important, has been to make available to the student body names of faculty members and students plus publications to which a student having a question may refer. Members of the Student Council committee and the members of the scholarship committee are more than willing to cooperate in ans wering any pertinent questions in an attempt to clear up once and for all, “the mystery of the schol arship committee,” Ira Ginsberg President, SCG (Note: New commttiee members this year are Mrs. Alice Rider, Dead Gerald Saddlemier, Mr. Joe Cole, Miss Rosalind Fisher, Miss Beatrice Merkhofer, Miss Betty Lester, and Dr. Clayton Mau,) old cronies. Some of us also wit nessed endless papers to be filled out then perhaps to be rewritten, Many of the incoming students (frosh, that is) resemble people who have .recently graduated and are often quite puzzled by the re ception they first receive. Among these is a fellow who resembles “A ce” Wermuth. Need we add more? The Phi iSigs are moved into their new home (or at least nine of them) at 29 Wadsworth Street, Sorority and Fraternity row is now complete with the exception of the D. K’s. and w e’d like to see them on “The R o w ” too. Registration is over now (or is it?) and we find ourselves in classes with classmates we never knew. It should mean that we’ll get to know a lot more people and some more instructors. Although the face of the campus has been lifted the Geneseo spirit still remains. It’s a wonderful, warm, friendly feeling. New Geneseo Handbook Explains College Policy The Geneseo Handbook is a new publication this year which contains information about college policies and procedures which everyone will be held responsible for. It is to be remembered that the handbook is not a replacement for the regular Student Government Handbook which will come out and contain information about all act ivities under Student Government jurisdiction and a copy of the Student Government constitution. By using the two handbooks along with the official college catalogue, the students and faculty will be able to find information about the organization and operation of the college. Any changes will appear in the form of revisions or addi tions in the handbook. The Geneseo Handbooks are punched as well’ as stapled for the convenience o f those who wish to use ring binders. Binders to fit the handbook may be purchased in the book store for 45 cents. Students who did not receive hand books m a y obtain them at the personnel office, Room 138.
