Alumni Weekend

The 300 students attending START 81 sessions June 25 and June 26, July 18 and July 19 and July 24 and July 25, are coming from such widely different places as Thunder Bay, Windsor, Kingston and Ottawa. Their interests cover every program that Guelph offers. What they have in common is a desire to attend the University of Guelph next fall. Almost 99 per cent of those who came to START 80 did go on to enroll at Guelph, says START co-ordinator, Peggy Patterson of the Counselling and Student Resource Centre. The aim of the three two-day START sessions is not to recruit, therefore, but to reinforce their decision to come to Guelph. The theme of START 81 is "How to Be a Successful Student at Guelph." Twelve hundred questionnaires filled out at March Friends of the University of Guelph, Inc. president, Counselling this past spring showed that the Dr. A.

The START program, accordingly, is made up of a number of resource sessions which help the student gain a complete idea of how to answer the big question — "How can I be successful as a university student?". START 81 students are being assisted in other ways. By staying overnight in residence they become acquainted with residence life, make new friends and find out where things are. By being placed in groups of five from the beginning of Day 1, they learn the value of co-operative effort. "No one student can attend all the resource sessions," explains Mrs. Patterson, "so in order to find out how to be a successful student at Guelph they must work Continued on page 2.

Andrew Parkinson is the winner of this years Sigma Xi D.G. Ingram Award for the outstand- ing Ph.D. thesis at the University of Guelph. Dr. Parkinson, who was enrolled in the chemistry program of the Guelph-Waterloo Centre for Graduate Work in Chemistry from September 1977, received his doctoral degree in February,1981. While at the University Dr. Parkinson co- authored, with Dr. Stephen Safe and his other research group members, 15 refereed research publications and 10 book chapters on various aspects of the biochemical toxicology of halogenated pollutants. He was also an out- standing rugger player, playing three years for the University of Guelph rugger team.
