This put week has been a very

has been our much devoted Chan-cellor.
This summer he accepted
the position of President of Florida

Ihere was a meeting held by the On April 15 the freshman class
Committee on Professional Ed- "eld their formal In the bal room

p.m. Thei theme was a Grecian
Holiday and the ballroom was
the field of medicine with all
pre medical student* at the Wom-an's
College.
Dean Mossman spoke *bout the
importance of having a liberal "— " "» 'o^'
education In undergraduate school.
It Is believed that to be an In-telligent
human being it Is neces-sary
to have a broad education.
Dr. Greenfield then spoke about
the social sciences In relation to
medicine. He feels that the re-lation
between a doctor and pat-lent
is not purely biological.
Miss Schaeffer discussed the
basic-scientific emphasis neces-sary
for admission to medical
schools She also feels that a stu-dent
Interested In medicine should
take many advanced scientific
course* to discover If he Is suited
for this field.
One of the most Interesting
points mentioned concerned the
demand for women today in the
field of medicine. Dr. Hahpster
explained that there has recently
been a decrease In the number of
applications made to medical
schools and this Is sttrlbuted to
several reason*: economic condi-tion*,
early marriages snd lsck of
scholarship
The last speaker for the eve-ning
wss Dr Collins who *poke
about the field* of medicine th»t
women participate In. Among
them were: pedlatrio*. gynocology
and ob*tettrlcs. surgery, internal
medicine, general practitioner,
eye', ear nose and' throat, derme*
tology. x-rays, research work, psy-chiatry
and student health. It I*
quite evident that there is quite
a selection.
The student* are planning to
make a trip to Bowman Gray
Medical School on May 13. This
was followed by the serving of
menu and discussion.
Dr. Singletary was elected by an
unanimous vote of the Board of
Trustees, and from what I have
been able to conclude from those
students who have met him, they
are overwhelmingly impressed with
our new chancellor elect He is
very Interested and concerned with
the school ss s personality and
what it is that makes up this per
sonsllty. such a* Its history tradi-tions,
student Idess snd opinions
and the relationships between the
administration and the students.
As far ss I'm concerned, one of
the most Important characteristics
that a person must possess In order
to fulfill the qualifications of chan-cellor
of a college is to have fore-most
in his mind the welfare and
reputation of the college. In keep
ing with this he should strive to
improve the standards of the
school, to keep it continually mov
ing forward, but still preserving its
meaningful traditiona.
Along with many other students
I had the chance to talk with Dr.
Singletary and hia very charming
and gracious wife. He and his wife
