STUDENT ADVISORS HOLD ORGANIZATION MEETING

Plans for Next Autumn Are Outlined by Chairman--Reports Will Be Made Use of by Deans

The Student Advisors recently appointed for 1927-1928 had their first meeting last night in the Faculty Room of University Hall. After the business of organization was completed, T. H. Eliot '28, chairman of the Student Advisory Committee, out-lined the plans that have been formulated for next fall.

The advisors' work will start on September 22, when the Freshmen have to register. A considerable number of advisor's are expected to return to Cambridge on that day. The assignment of advisees will probably be made earlier next year than usual, so that advisors who return on the twenty-second will already know the names and addresses of their advisees.

The advisor's reports on all Freshmen, which were written for the first time last October, will again be a feature of the system. Next fall, however, the reports will be more important than in the past, for when a Freshman's standing is questionable, the Freshman Dean will call for the Advisor's report and use it to aid him in deciding the case. The reports will be used only by the Student Advisory Committee and the Deans, and will not be published.

Two-thirds of the Advisors were present at the meeting. Eighteen men were absent because they were at Philadelphia with the track team, the 150-pound crew, and the-third University crew, or at Ithaca with the first two University crews. There were seven other absentees.
