I Activities planned for ummer

Summer quarter is porbably called "opportunity " quarter for several different reasons. One good reason is that the student s have the opportunity to get away from the form al atmosphere of the other quarters and really relax.

Ah, summer ...

Outdoor program

Invaders breed confusion Eight thousand students may magically disappear at the end of final week but what reappears on Monday morning is an even stranger phenomena. In one area of the campus the classrooms are invaded by a group of secondary school teachers learning new and modern up-to-date things about the new ~rop of students they're teaching. "Excuse me is this the third floor of the F-Z AUD," a gray-haired lady in a blue knit suit asks the University Center Receptionist. Conferences, seminars and workshops attract every type of person to the campus , especially the confused. A group of new workshopers can be seen being led by the pied piper of their group , a person who has been to the workshop seven consecutive years. She knows where all rooms are located, where the ice cream building is located and that it's cheaper to eat upstairs than in the Hub. Only about 3,500registered students will attend summer school classes yet some 12,000 people will invade the campus for workshops, seminars, etc. They come to learn about just about every area but the most common topic at any meeting is usually one like " new processes of thinking and learning subjects of value in the modern world" or "a n experience in the experiment of new processes in advanced areas of processed thinking'' or other similarly ambiguous areas. A large portion of the 12,000 will be high school students attempting to get a glimpse at college life before entering it themselves. They will be singing, dancing, marching and toe-tapping during their week 's stay at USU. Numerous activities are scheduled so that there is plenty to do for the "y oungsters" and so that they'll see that USU is the school for them. A guided tour of Logan is planned in a Cook Transportation Bus along with a visit to the famous ice cream building for some of that great ice cream from the contended USU cows. They live in the dorms and eat in the dorm cafeterias, just like real college stt,dents. If you watch the signs you'll be able to spot the invaders this summer. The girls wear dresses and the boys wear slacks and suits , not cut-off levis and barefeet. And each one will be carrying a blue USU folaer. The dead giveaways are the ones who wear their nametags. It's not really fair to dislike these people because they 're confused so if you see one with a_nametag, go up and say hello, and if you don't want to feel in the minority you might wear one yourself.

Professors

Nature is rediscovered Welcome to beautiful Cache Valley and Summer Quarter at utah State . If you've been here before you'll find the Outdoor Program a new addition, in fact we've only just been born this past spring . Cache Valley has always had the fine mountains, the clear running rivers, the open fields, and the teeming marsh ; now there are people ready to share their knowledge of these things, to show others who wish to hear the wilderness speaking, to smile together as the sun comes up or goes down, to eat lunch together under a pinion pine, to watch a brown trout feeding (and learn how to catch him), to commune with Mother Nature, to seek, to share, to know each other, to learn how to: shoot a bow and arrow, read a topo map, climb a mountain, survive in summer mountains, track a deer, paddle a canoe, find a fossil, or tote a back pack . This is the Outdoor Program at USU. By your seeking and your sharing it will grow. J. J. Platt, Coordinator Outdoor Program "Climb the mountains and get their good tidings. Nature's peace will flow into you as sunshine flows into trees." John Muir

Editors note : The outdoor program is open to everyone, experienced people as well as the unskilled. Activities such as hiking, backpacking, fishing, canoeing, spelunking, bow and arrow hunting, bicycling and outdoor cooking are offered. Information is available in the Activities Center for those who would like to participate this summer.
