Dean Rogers Welcomes Students
As Dean of the University of Southern California Summer Session it is indeed a pleasure to greet and to extend a cordial welcome to the visiting members of our faculty and the many students who have come to spend the summer with us. We are greatly indebted to the representatives of other universities who bring to us their rich experiences and something of the interests and aspirations of their home institutions. Their presence in our midst provides us an excellent substitute for a personal visit to the many campuses represented on our Summer Session staff. It is to be hoped that our visiting professors in turn likewise may profit by their sojourn with us •and may carry away many pleasant memories.
Former students and graduates may be assured of a hearty welcome. We hape that this Summer Session may be a real “Home Coming" for them in the sense that eaeh returns with new experiences and problems and his Alma Mater is a source of new inspiration and the means of greater achievements. Thc faculty and former students alike join in extending a cordial welcome to the many students who are enrolling for the first time at the University of Southern California and wish for them a pleasant and profitable summer.
Notwithstanding a number of unknown elements in the situation an effort has been made not only to maintain but to increase the variety and high quality of work which has characterized the Summer Session of Southern California. This has been made necessary and also possible by the ever increasing fcumber of graduate students who come to us seeking advanced professional training and higher degrees.
While not disregarding the many attractions that ate to be found in and near Los Angeles we wish to believe that the merits of our urogram have been the major factors in attracting to our Campus students from many states and foreign countries, ac value of the Summer Session cannot be* measured in terms of units or semester hours of credit but the intrinsic values can he measured only in terms of Continued On Page Two
