EVALUATION COMMITTEE
When deferred rush was passed last
year on a trial basis, an agreement was
enacted saying that the president would
select a committee for evaluation of the
rush plan after one semester’s use. The
committee has been selected by Dr.

Allen, chairman; Miss Martha Baily,
Secretary; Dr Peterson; Dr Jeff Camp-
bell; Dr. Judson Custer; Mr. Barry
Woodward; Mrs. Mildred Gervasi; Mr.
Bradley Gould; Miss Emily Spessard; Mr.
Dan Stultz.
“The president, in announcing the
committee, requests the full cooperation of
all individuals and groups that make up
the university community. This is a dif-
ficult assignment but with the full
cooperation of everyone of us, the com-
mittee can perform a genuine service for
us all in objectively throwing up the assets
and liabilities that will point us toward the
program for next year," stated Dr.
Fleming.
