OUR HOMECOMING SCHEDULE is of extra-special design this year, and the planning represents the combined efforts of alumni, stu­ dents, and faculty. The morning's program has been worked around a typical college day, and the opportunity is at hand for alumni to return on October 27 to really become acquainted with 1951 "K''. Registration will begin at 9:30 a.m., so plan to have your morning's cup of coffee in Hoben Lounge. At 11:00 a.m., chapel bells will beckon on the crest of our campus hill. An interesting service is being planned with student participation. Anytime between 8:00 a.m. and 11:00 a.m., the welcome mat will be out to attend any of the classes you wish. A com­ plete s::hedule will be made available to you. (You see, the Alumnus is going to press during student registration days!) Here are a few to con­ sider: International Affairs, American Literature, Fields of Social Work, Introduction of Visual Art, Elizabethan Drama, American National Govern­ ment, Cultural Anthropology, Modern European History, Clinical Psy­ chology, and foreign languages. After chapel, the campus will be yours for inspection and fun. Faculty and students will be on hand at any of the campus buildings of your choice. (Note: Don't overlook the newly decorated lounges at Mary Trowbridge House!) The students promise clever displays again this year, too. At 12:15 p.m., the facilities of Welles Dining Hall will be at your disposal. Luncheons for the women in Welles Hall Lounge and for men in the main dining room have been planned by our new dining hall staff, and we venture they will meet with absolute approval. The game with Hillsdale begins at 2:00p.m., and afterward, we hope to see you in Hoben Lounge for a get-together before the banquet. Our banquet headliner will be Dan Wood '40, former "K" star athlete, now minister of the First Baptist Church, Beaver Dam, Wisconsin, He is Director of Religion and assistant in coaching at Wayland Academy. For the evening's entertainment, the Student Senate has planned a dance in Tredway, and they extend a cordial welcome to all alumni. So, briefly, here's the schedule: 9:30 a.m. to 11 :00 a.m. REgistration- Coffeetime ... Visit any of the classes until 11 :00 a.m . .. 11 :00 a.m. to 11 :30 a.m. Alumni-College Chapel 11 :30 a.m. to 12:15 a.m. All-campus Open House 12:15 p.m. Women's Luncheon, Welles Lounge, $1.30 Men's Luncheon, sponsored by K-Ciub, Main dining room, Welles Hall, $1.30 2:00 p.m. Kalamazoo- Hillsdale Football Game After the Game- Get-together in Hoben Lounge, Refreshment 6:00 p.m. Alumni Banquet, $2.00 9:00 p.m. Alumni-Student Dance, Tredway Gymnasium And don't forget the annual Homecoming parade and bonfire on Friday night.
