ST. AUGUSTINE’S RECORD
ORIENTATION AT ST. AUGUSTINE’S
The major purpose of oiir orientation course is to
jjrovido for the general adjustment of the freshmen
and other new students to life at St. Augustine’s Col
lege. The means of effecting this adjustment is through
a series of lectures covering different phases of college
life, and continuing throughout the first semester.
The topics included are: Study—-Its Technique Fa
cilities; History and Traditions of St. Augustine’s Col
lege; Social Activities, Health, and Religion. It is
intended that each lecture or group of lectures shall
acquaint the new students, among other things, with
the major purpose and function of each phase of cam
pus life, so that each student may derive the fullest
benefit from participation in such life.
The uniqueness of this course at St. Augustine’s lies
in its credit value and in being continued throughout
the semester. Usually such adjustment of freshmen is
attempted during the first week of school. However,
it would seem that gradual adjustment should be more
effective.
Eecause of its guidance nature the course has a credit
value of one hour in Education. —P. Youno.
