June 26, 1930.
We are pleased to take this opportunity to extend greetings and cordial welcome to the students coming to the campus of the University of Southern California for work in our summer session. We have endeavored to anticipate the needs of every one and have invited representatives of the leading universities of the country to give work in their special fields. A large representation of our resident faculty will also be giving work in our summer session. I am sure every one will find it both pleasure-able and profitable to be under their stimulation and guidance during the summer.
Special effort has been made to adjust administrative matters so that every student will receive whatever counsel and guidance he may desire in planning his work without undue delay. Both the members of the faculty and administrative assistants will be pleased to give all assistance and extend every courtesy possible.
In addition to the regular course offerings, summer session students will have the opportunity to hear visiting professors at the general assemblies and special series of lectures which have been announced. Special attention may be called to the series of lectures to be given by Dr. Julian Hawthorne, son of Nathaniel Hawthorne, during the third week of the six weeks session. Week-end excursions will give non-resident students an opportunity to see points of interest in Southern California.
Satisfaction gained from summer session study is dependent to a large extent upon the attitude of the student in planning and pursuing his course. For this reason, may I suggest that students give major consideration to the opportunities and problems of vital concern to them. Credits and grades are incidental. Larger satisfactions come through clarification of pur-(Continued on Page Two)
