Office Clarifies Rules
or Sign-Out Procedure
iThe first week with the new sign-
* procedure passed with very few
irregularities. However, there are
several clarifications which must be
made.
Students can only sign out for
overnights during the allotted time
set by the house counselor. When
|student needs the Dean of Stu
dent’s permission, she must secure
during the office hours. If an
emergency arises, the student may
contact the dean on duty.
For any overnight other than
hbme, each student must get ap
proval. Invitations for a Winston-
Paleni overnight must be in to the
Dean of Students before the stu
dent signs out. A note from the
Jean saying the invitation is in is
necessary when signing out in the
dorm. At the end of each month
the office will send post cards to
the students’ parents stating every
overnight she has taken that month.
Sign-outs for in-town evening en
gagements, out-of-town day trips,
and out-of-town evening engage
ments are to be made on one card.
All overnights are to be put on the
second. When a girl is signed out
for in-town and decides to go out-
of-town, she must call in to change
her sign-out.
If circumstances prevent a girl
from returning to campus on time,
she must call her dorm to notify
her house president. If she returns
to campus within fifteen minutes
after her dorm’s closing time, she
may go immediately to her dorm.
However, if she returns later than
the allotted fifteen minutes, she
must go immediately to Clewell to
wait for the night watchman. Upon
return to the dorm, the girl should
record her late minutes in the ir
regularity book.
When a girl calls in for any rea
son, she must always call directly
to her own dorm and ask to speak
to the girl on duty. This girl is
the only authorized person to
change the sign-out. If calling
from out-of-town, a student must
call long distance person-to-person.
Late permission should be re
viewed in the handbook (page 59).
The only change is that for any of
the three civic concerts (a, b, c), a
girl must sign out in her dorm and
put LP by her sign-out. Other late
permissions should follow the same
procedure as before with the Dean
of Students granting it during of
fice hours. If the student expects
to be in within the fifteen minute
