Associate Women Students would like to welcome you as you wheel into Iowa City. We hope this book can answer some of the many questions you have about life at The University of Iowa. Once you have crossed the bridge that leads into the heart of the U of I, you will become one of more than 4,000 new motorists, but you won't go unnoticed. The tune-up for Orientation, a series of programs planned just for you, has already been started by a special crew of mechanics, one of whom will be your Orientation leader. She is anxious to make your adjustment to college an interesting, exciting experience and will be introducing herself through a letter to you sometime soon. Each activity of Orientation is directed toward you, so don't miss any. Getting oriented in the right direction now will help you in following your chosen course during the rest of college life. Your first Orientation program will be a mass meeting of all freshmen at the Field House. Here you'll see assembled the class of 1970, and be introduced to student and administrative leaders. You will be briefed on the events of the coming week, and meet the other freshmen in your Orientation group as well as your Orientation leaders. When the meeting concludes, the leaders will accompany you to the home of a faculty member. The gathering there will be informal, so casual dress will be appropriate. You'll have a chance to talk with your host and hostess, your leaders, and each other, and will find this a perfect time to raise questions about any and every phase of the U of I. After this you should feel much more familiar with your new environment and also eager to take part in the rest of Orientation. Thursday will mark the opening of the official school year. Be sure to be on the east approach to Old Capitol at 8:45 a.m., when President Bowen conducts the Induction ceremony. This is an important event for you, since it marks not only the beginning of the 1966-67 academic year, but also the start of your career as a university student. This impressive ceremony is always an inspiration to academic achievement and U of I loyalty. Thursday evening is Recreation Night for both men and women. Included in the activities will be a Dolphin Club swimming review, fencing and gymnastics in the North Gym, dancing in the Field House area, sports movies in the Pharmacy Auditorium, and a movie of general interest in Macbride Hall Auditorium. On Friday night, you can see for yourself what the U of I has to offer in the way of extracurricular activities. Many campus groups will be participating in the Activities Carnival and each will be glad to furnish you with information about their plans and programs. Church Night on Sunday will give you the opportunity to meet the student group in which you have an interest. The following Tuesday there will be separate Adviser-Departmental meetings, when you may talk to and gain advice from people who are specifically concerned with your field of concentration. After Orientation Week you will probably still have moments of confusion. However, if you have taken advantage of the planned programs, the willing help, and the information available, you will feel well acquainted with your new life at the U of I. 5
