Member institutions are elements of an articulated system, parts of an integrated whole. The educational program is so organized as to dis- tribute as widely as possible throughout the state the opportunities for general education and to center on a particular campus specialized, technical, and professional curricula closely related to one another. The institutions of the State System of Higher Education are the University of Oregon at Eugene, Oregon State University at Corvallis, Portland State University at Portland, Oregon College of Education at Monmouth, Southern Oregon College at Ashland, Eastern Oregon College at La Grande, and Oregon Technical Institute at Klamath Falls. The University of Oregon Medical School and the University of Oregon Dental School are located in Portland. The Division of Continuing Edu- cation, representing all the institutions, has offices in Ashland, Corvallis, Eugene, La Grande, Monmouth, Portland, Roseburg, and Salem. At Oregon College of Education, Southern Oregon College, and Eastern Oregon College, students may complete major work in teacher education or general studies or enroll in a preprofessional program. Southern Oregon College offers a major program in business. Portland State University offers major work in general studies and selected liberal arts and professional fields as well as certain preprofs- sional programs. At the Unviersity of Oregon and Oregon State University, major curricula, both liberal and professional, are grouped on either campus in accordance with the distinctive functions of the respective institutions in the unified State System of Higher Education. Oregon Technical Institute offers technological curricula leading to the baccalaureate degree and to associate degrees in technical and semiprofessional areas. An interinstitutional booklet, Your Education, which outlines the curricula of the several institutions and contains other information, is available.

The University THE HISTORY OF THE UNIVERSITY OF OREGON dates from October 19, 1872, when the University was established by an act of the State Legislature. It was four years later, however, before facilities for instruction were available and the institution first formaHy opened its doors on October 16, 1876. The main campus of the University of Oregon is located in Eugene (popu- lation 76,200), 109 miles south of Portland, at the head of the Willamette VaHey. Eugene is a progressive city with excellent schools, numerous churches, and strong civic and social organizations. The climate is mild, with moderate winters and cool summers. The average annual rainfal1 is 38Y, inches, with the heaviest rainfall in the winter months, November, December, and January. The Eugene campus occupies 240 acres of land in the eastern part of the city. The camI7US is bisected by Thirteenth Avenue. The first University buildings were • On leave of absence 1970·71. 12 SCHOOL OF LAW erected north of Thirteenth, on what is known as the "old campus." Later expan- sions have been principally to the south and east. Most of the buildings on the old campus are arranged in a quadrangle: Fenton Hall, Deady Hall, Villard Hall, Lawrence Hall, Allen Hall, and Friendly Hall. Johnson Hall (the administration building) is located across Thirteenth Avenue, facing the north quadrangle. South of Johnson Hall is an integrated group of buildings, including Gerlinger Hall (the women's gymnasium), Hendricks Hall, and Susan Campbell Hall. A new quadrangle to the west includes Commonwealth Hall, north of Thir- teenth Avenue, and, to the south, Condon Hall, Chapman Hall, the Museum of Art, Prince L. Campbell Hall, and the University Library. The new Law Center building is located north of this quadrangle at the corner of Eleventh and Kincaid. The Education Building and the Music Building are located south of this quadrangle. Until the 1920s the east boundary of the campus was, roughly, University Street. Significant exvansion beyond this boundary began with the erection of McArthur Court (the student athletic center) and the John Straub Memorial Building (a men's dormitory), and continued in the 1930s with the erection of the Physical Education Building. More recent additions in this area are the Science Building, the Anthropology Building, Emerald Hall (a temporary structure hous- ing administrative and student-services offices), the Donald M. Erb Memorial Union, several dormitories, and the Student Health Center building. Since the end of World War II, extensive temporary housing facilities for married students have been erected on or near the campus. These facilities include houses and apartments east of the main campus and row-house apartments occupy- ing a 30-acre tract about six blocks southwest of the campus. A permanent housing proj ect for married students has been developed on the west side of Eugene. School of Law THE UNIVERSITY OF OREGON SCHOOL OF LAW, established in 1884 in the city of Portland, was moved to the Eugene campus in 1915 and reorganized as a regular division of the University. The School of Law was admitted to the Association of American Law Schools in December 1919; the standards of the school were approved by the American Bar Association in August 1923. New Law Center. The new three-story Law Center building, which houses the School of Law, is located on the southeast corner of Kincaid Street and 11th A venue East, and will eventually accommodate 500 students and 30 faculty members. Modern classrooms, seminar rooms, and a moot court room are provided. Student facilities include a student bar association office, lounge, typing room, locker room, and space for the Editorial Board of the Oregon Law Review. The law library has shelf space for 120,000 books, and is designed to permit expansion. Svacious reading rooms are available for student study, as well as a sizable number of individual study carrels. The holdings of the Law Library exceed 67,000 volumes, including complete case reports of the National Reporter System, complete state reports from colonial times to the establishment of the Reporter System, a substantial collection of English and Canadian case law, codes and compilations of state and Federal statute law, standard legal digests and en- cyclopaedias, etc. Its periodical collection includes files of about 366 legal journals. An excellent collection of publications relating to Oregon territorial and state law includes an extensive file of Oregon Supreme Court briefs. ADMISSION TO THE SCHOOL OF LAW 13 Oregon Law Review. The OREGON LAW REVIEW is published quarterly under the editorship of a student editorial staff, with the assistance of a faculty editorial adviser, as a service to the members of the Oregon bar and as a stimulus to legal research and productive scholarship on the part of students. The LAW REVIEW has been published continuously since 1921. Moot Court Program. The School of Law participates in the National Moot Court Comvetition. A student Moot Court Board assists in the substantive and procedural administration of all moot court programs in the School of Law. Clinical Experience Program. Law students have the opportunity to partici- pate in both civil and criminal clinical experience programs. The civil program centers on the legal-aid program operated by the Lane County Bar Association. The criminal program provides opportunities to work with agencies and lawyers concerned with prosecution, defense, and postcol1viction proceedings. Oral Case Analysis Contest. Law students entering the Lane County Bar Association Oral Case Analysis Contest are afforded the opportunity of discussing a recent case or legal topic of interest with an audience composed entirely of lawyers. Any registered law student may enter the contest. The Lane County Bar Association offers each year cash prizes to the students judged to have made the best presentations at the weekly luncheon meetings of the bar association. Order of the Coif. The Order of the Coif, national law school honor society, maintains a chapter in the University of Oregon School of Law. The Order of the Coif was founded to encourage high scholarship and to advance the ethical stand- ards of the legal profession. Members are selected by the faculty during the spring term each year from the ten per cent of the third-year class who rank highest in scholarship. Character, as well as scholarship, is considered in selecting members. Placement. The School of Law maintains its own placement service for its graduates. Summer Session. The School of Law does not offer a summer session. Admission to the School of Law THE SCHOOL OF LAW does not prescribe any particular form of prelegaF education. Intellectual maturity and breadth of educational background are con- sidered more important than particular subject matter. The School of Law does emphasize the importance of well developed writing skills. Basic Admission Requirements. As a general rule, a baccalaureate degree is required for admission to the School of Law. Because of the increasing volume of applications for admission to the School of Law in recent years, and enrollment restrictions which may be imposed, only those applicants who, in terms of their overall records, appear to be most qualified for legal studies can be admitted. On the basis of past experience, it is unlikely that an applicant with a score of less than 575 on the Law School Admission Test and an undergraduate grade point average of less than 3.00 on a four-point scale would be admitted unless one of the two figures were sufficiently high to compensate for the other. In exceptional cases, applicants who have completed a minimum of three- fourths of the work acceptable for a baccalaureate degree, and whose background and academic record clearly demonstrate outstanding potential for legal studies, may be admitted without a baccalaureate degree at the discretion of the law school. The foregoing minimum requirement may include no work taken by correspollc1- ence and no more than ten per cent in non theory courses in military science, 14 SCHOOL OF LAW hygiene, domestic arts, physical education, vocal or instrumental music, or other subjects of a nontheoretical nature. It should be emphasized that waiver of the baccalaureate degree as a basic admission requirement is considered only in truly exceptional cases. Admissions Correspondence. Specific inquiries, applications, transcripts, application fee, the Law School Admission Test report, and all supporting docu- ments should be forwarded to the School of Law, University of Oregon, Eugene, Oregon 97403. Unless the applicant gives clear instructions to have his transcripts sent to the School of Law, they may be sent to the central University Admissions Office, seriously delaying action on the application. Time of Application. Applications and supporting documents should be filed with the Admissions Committee after September 15 of the academic year preced- ing that for which admission is sought, and are not accepted before that time, except for reports of Law School Admission Test scores, which will be accepted at any time. The Admissions Committee acts on completed applications beginning January 1 preceding the fall term for which admission is sought. Applications should be filed before May 15 in order to be considered. Applications. Two applications are required, one for the School of Law (white) and one for the University (yellow). Both applications should be returned directly to the School of Law. All applicants must complete the School of Law application. Apvlicants who have never previously been admitted to the University must also complete the University application. Application Fee. Applications must be accompanied by a check for $10.00 payable to the University of Oregon, unless the applicant has previously been registered at the University. An applicant who has previously been admitted to the University, but who did not register, must submit a $10.00 application fee with his reapplication. This fee is neither refundable nor credited toward tuition and fees, regardless of action taken on the awlication. Law School Admission Test. Applicants must take the Law School Admis- sion Test and have an official report of the test scores sent to the School of Law by the Educational Testing Service, which administers the test. Inquiries con- cerning the dates, places, and fee for the Law School Admission Test should be sent directly to the Educational Testing Service, Box 944, Princeton, New Jersey 08540. The Admissions Committee will not act on an application until the report Df the test scores has been received. Admissions Action. Transcripts. The Admissions Committee cannot act on :an application until two official transcripts are furnished to the School of Law showing all academic work completed, at the date of application, at each under- graduate, graduate, or professional school attended, including summer sessions. These transcripts must show completion of 109 semester or 156 quarter-term hours. If the applicant is currently enrolled in an undergraduate, graduate, or profes- sional school, favorable action by the Admissions Committee will be a conditional admission. Final admission cannot be granted until transcripts are furnished to the Admissions Committee showing all academic work completed at each under- graduate, graduate, or professional school attended and showing, where appro- pria te, receipt of a baccala urea te degree. Advance-Registration Deposit. Upon receiving notice of admission, an ap- plicant must make a deposit of $75.00 to be credited toward his tuition and fees for the fall term. The deposit is returned only upon notice of withdrawal before a specified time. Validity of Admission. An admission to the School of Law is valid only for the fall term stated in the notice of admission. An admitted applicant who is LA W CURRICULUM AND DEGREES 15 unable to register in the School of Law for that term must reapply by filing a formal application to be admitted for a subsequent fall term. Personal Interviews. Although members of the law faculty are willing to discuss legal education at the School of Law with prospective applicants, personal interviews are neither required nor encouraged as part of the admission process. Time of Enrollment. First-year students may begin studies at the School of Law only at the beginning of the fall term of each academic year. Transfer Law Students. An applicant who has attended another law school must have the dean of that law school send a letter to the Admissions Committee stating that the applicant is in good standing and eligible to return to that school without condition. This statement is required even if the applicant does not seek advanced standing. Transferred Credit. An applicant may transfer, as a general rule, not to exceed one year of credit earned in another law school of recognized standing, provided that, at the time he was admitted to the law school from which he wishes to transfer credit, he could have also met the admission requirements then existing at the University of Oregon School of Law. In exceptional cases only, an applicant may be permitted to transfer not to exceed two years of credit. The right to rej ect any and all such credit is reserved. Application for admission by an applicant who has attended another law school will not be considered unless: (1) the school from which transfer is sought is on the list of schools approved by the American Bar Association and is a mem- ber of the Association of American Law Schools; (2) the applicant is eligible for return in good standing to the school previously attended; and (3) the applicant's cumulative grade-point average for all professional law courses completed is at least 2.00 when computed on the basis of the system of grade-point average deter- mination used by the University of Oregon. Transferred credit will be accepted, however, only if the applicant's professional law school record is of high quality. The Admissions Committee cannot act on an application from an applicant seeking to transfer credit earned at another law school until transcripts showing all work for which credit is sought are filed with the committee. Law Curriculum and Degrees THE SCHOOL OF LAW offers a professional curriculum leading to the Doctor of Jurisprudence degree. Doctor of Jurisprudence. Students who have met the requirements for ad- mission to the School of Law, and who have successfully completed courses in law aggregating 123 hours and have otherwise satisfied the requirements of the University and the School of Law, will be granted the degree of Doctor of Juris- prudence (J.D.), provided that they: (1) Obtain (at least two years before completing work for the J.D. degree) the Bachelor of Arts, Bachelor of Science, or an equivalent degree from this University or some other institution of recognized collegiate rank. (2) Earn a minimum grade-point average of 2.00 in the School of Law. (3) Comply with such other requirements as may from time to time be imposed. A total of three years of resident professional study in the University oj Oregon or another law school of recognized standing is required for the J.D. degree, of which, normally, the two last years must be in residence at the Univer- sityof Oregon. 16 SCHOOL OF LAW In determining whether a student who has transferred credit from another la \\. school has satisfied the 2.00 grade-point average requirement for the J.D. degree, only grades earned at the University of Oregon will be considered. Baccalaureate Degree in Law. Exceptionally well qualified students who are admitted to the School of Law without a baccalaureate degree may qualify for a nonprofessional baccalaureate degree after the satisfactory completion of one year of professional work in the School of Law, provided that they have satis- fied all general University requirements for such a degree. For a nonprofessional degree, the major requirement in law is 36 term hours (unweighted) in profes- sional courses. The dean of the School of Law will not recommend a student for the B.A. or B.S. degree with a major in law who has been awarded, or is a candidate for, either of these degrees with a major in another field. A student admitted without a baccalaureate degree must obtain that degree before entering upon his second year of study in the School of Law. Curriculum. The curriculum of the School of Law provides a thorough preparation for the practice of law in any state. The School of Law seeks to have the student acquire knowledge not only of legal doctrine, but also of the judicial process and of the social, economic, and political problems with which lawyers must deal. The method of instruction requires an intensive exercise of analytical skills. Because substantial participation in classroom discussion is an essential factor in legal education, credit for any course may be denied for irregular attendance. Classes are regularly scheduled Monday through Friday. Some classes may be scheduled on Saturday. Because the curriculum is arranged to present the fundamental topics of the law during the first year, the first-year program is composed of required courses. In order to stimulate student involvement in classroom discussion, every effort is made to assure first-year students of at least one basic course with an enrollment limit of twenty-five students. All second- and third-year courses are elective except The Legal Profession (L 477), which is required. The scope of the curriculum has been progressively enriched in recent years by the addition of courses, seminars, and research and writing programs which explore the role of law in new areas of social and eco- nomic importance, and which stress a close student-faculty relationship. The clini- cal experiences program is also available to second- and third-year students. The School of Law does not offer an evening program. Research and Writing Requirements. During his second year of study in the School of Law, each student must complete a writing assignment designed to im- prove his legal writing skills and his ability to critically analyze legal problems. This assignment must be completed before a student may begin his third year of studv in the School of Law. 'During his third year of study in the School of Law. each student must com- plete a research and writing assignment designed to test his analytical and creative ability to consider and develop solutions for one or more legal problems in depth. This assignment must be completed before a student will be granted a professional bw degree. Students may satisfy the foregoing requirements by selection from the follow- ing alternatives: (1) Seminar: Advanced Appellate Advocacy (L 507). (Satisfies second- year requirement only.) (2) Any faculty-supervised writing assignment whether or not under- taken in connection with a course or seminar. (Satisfies second-year require- ment only.) (3) Any faculty-supervised research paper whether or not undertaken in connection with a course or seminar. (Satisfies either requirement.) FEES AND LIVING EXPENSES 17 (4) Participation in a nationally recognized moot court competition. (Satisfies either requirement.) (5) Participation as a candidate for or member of the Oregon Law Review editorial staff. (Satisfies either requirement.) Fees and Living Expenses REGULAR FEES are payable in full at the time of registration. Payment of the stipulated fees entitles all students enrolled for academic credit (undergraduate and graduate. full-time and part-time) to all services maintained by the University for the benefit of students. These services include: use of the University Library; use of laboratory and course equipment and materials in connection with courses for which the student is reigstered; medical attention at the Student Health Cen- ter; use of gymnasium equipment (including gymnasium suits and laundry serv- ice) ; a subscription to the student daily newspaper; admission to concert and lecture series sponsored by the University. No reduction in fees is made to students who may not desire to take advantage of some of these privileges. Law students. whether residents or nonresidents, who hold a baccalaureate degree from an accredited college or university are classified as graduate students and pay fees totaling $162 a term or $486 for the three-term academic year. Law students who do not hold a baccalaureate degree pay fees totaling $136 a term or $408 for the three-term academic year if residents of Oregon, or $445 a term or $1,335 for the three-term academic year if nonresidents. The Oregon State Board of Higher Education reserves the right to make changes in the fee schedule without notice. General Deposit. All persons who enroll for academic credit (except staff members) must make a deposit of $25.00, payable once each year at the time of first registration. This is required for protection of the University against loss or damage of institutional property such as dormitory and laboratory equipment, Library books, and locker keys, and against failure to pay promptly nominal fines and assessments, such as Library fines, campus traffic fines, and Student Health Center charges. If at any time charges against this deposit become excessive the student may be called upon to re-establish the original amount. The deposit, less any deductions which may have been made, is refunded about six weeks after the close of the academic year. (See also "Advance-Registration Deposit," page 14.) Living Accommodations and Costs. The University provides dormitory accommodations for 3,143 students. Board and room costs in University dormi- tories are approximately $405 for the fall term, $270 for the winter term, and $225 for the spring term-a total of approximately $900 for the academic year. Board and room charges are payable at the beginning of each term. If a stu- dent is unable to make the total payment at the beginning of the term, arrangement may be made for payment in two installments, the first at the beginning of the term and the second on a fixed date later in the term. Application for dormitory reservations should be made to the University Housing Office, Carson Hall. Contracts for dormitory accommodations are for room and board for the entire school year. Application must be made on an official form, and must be accompanied by a room deposit of $50.00, which will be applied to the first term's room and board payment. Housing for married students is provided in 655 furnished and unfurnished family-dwelling units owned and operated by the University. The units include a wide variety of accommodations. The rents range from $42.50 to $91.00 per month. Application should be made to the University Housing Office, Carson Hall. The married-student housing program is intended primarily to accommodate married graduate students working toward advanced degrees. 18 SCHOOL OF LAW Maximum tenant occupancy is restricted to the following: I-bedroom apart- ments-2 adults and 1 child under the age of one; 2-bedroom apartments-2 adults, 2 children over the age of one, and 1 child under the age of one. Occupancy is restricted to the members of one family. Student Health Center THROUGH THE STUDENT HEALTH CENTER the University strives to safeguard the health of its students. This is accomplished through health education, medical treatment of disease, and limited psychiatric and counseling services. The student health services in the institutions in the Oregon State System of Higher Education are supported by student registration fees and such charges as are necessary. Every student registered for credit is entitled to all the services of the Student Health Center. The facilities and services of the Student Health Center are available during regular school terms only. The Student Health Center facility consists of an out-patient department, a 44-bed infirmary, including a modern isolation unit of four private beds, and the necessary laboratory and administrative facilities. In general, medical services offered include: (1) general medical attention and treatment, including minor surgery (major surgery and other procedures requiring general anesthesia and specialists' services are referred) ; (2) IS-day free hospitalization in the Student Health Center facility during one academic year if recommended by a Health Center physician; (3) 24-hour daily medical care for accidents and major illness during regular school terms (major emergencies are referred to the several hos- pitals located near the campus); (4) routine laboratory procedures, including X-ray and clinical laboratory ; (S) a pharmacy; (6) limited psychiatric and coun- seling services on an out-patient basis, supervised by a psychiatrist; (7) limited physical therapy. Visits to the Student Health Center are by appointment, except for emer- gencies. An appointment can be made by telephone or by a visit to the Student Health Center. Appointments are not necessary for the Saturday morning clinic. Charges are made against the breakage deposit for prescriptions, X-ray, laboratory procedures, and services, such as immunizations and physical therapy, but every attempt is made to keep these as low as possible. All expenses of, or connected with, surgical operations or specialized services must be borne by the student, including the services of a special nurse, where deemed necessary. Under no circumstances will the Health Center payor be re- sponsible for bills from private physicians or private hospitals. Ambulance service is not available through the Student Health Center; the expense of such service must be borne by the patient. The privileges of the Health Center are not available to members of the faculty. Physical Examination and Immunizations. For protection of the public health, the Board of Higher Education requires of all students, as a condition for admission to the University: (1) a physical examination by a licensed M.D. or D.O. chosen by the student, and presentation of a record of this examination on an official form provided by the University; (2) an intradermal tuberculin test within six months of registration unless there is a history of a previous positive test, in which case a chest X-ray is required; and (3) proof, to the satisfaction of the University physician, of (a) immunization against smallpox and (b) diphtheria- tetanus immunization within ten years unless medically contraindicated. If the student is enrolled in the University at the close of a five-year period following the first physical examination, a second examination may be required; a second examination may be required after a shorter interval, at the discretion of FINANCIAL AID 19 the University physician. The physical examination, immunization, and tuberculin test requirements apply to students returning to the University after a period of absence. These students should consult the Student Health Center concerning possible deficiencies. Students who decline immunizations because of religious conviction may be admitted, but only on the condition that they or (in the case of minor students) their parents or guardians agree in writing to assume all expenses incident to their care or quarantine, should they acquire smallpox, diphtheria, or tetanus while students at the University. This does not exempt them from the physical examina- tion or the intradermal tuberculin test. However, the student may choose to have a chest X-ray in lieu of the skin test but must submit an annual chest X-ray report to remain in school. Financial Aid ALL INQUIRIES concerning financial aid should be directed to the Office of Financial Aids, Emerald Hall, University of Oregon. Many students earn a large part of their expenses by work in the summers and during the academic year. The University offers assistance to those seeking part- time and vacation jobs through its Student Employment Service located in Susan Campbell Hall. No student should expect to obtain employment by correspondence. Most job opportunities are not listed until the opening of the fall term, and many commitments for employment are made only after personal interviews with pros- pective employers. College Work-Study Program. Federal funds are provided to the University under the College Work-Study Program to promote part-time employment for students from low-income families and in need of earnings from such employment to continue their education. Loans Student loans are administered by the Office of Financial Aids, Emerald Hall. General inquiries concerning loans, and requests for applications should be ad- dressed to that office. National Defense Student Loans. Under the National Defense Education Act of 1958, funds have been provided to the University for financial aid through National Defense Student Loans. Loans may be made from this fund to both under- graduate and graduate students who are enrolled for full-time study and who are making normal progress toward their degrees. The amount of the loan depends 011 the need of the student for additional funds in order to meet normal college-related expenses but may not be more than $1,000 a year for undergraduates or more than $2,500 a year for graduates. Guaranteed Student Loans. Banks and other lenders provide low-cost long- term loans to students through a system of reserve funds held by state agencies or by private nonprofit agencies such as United Student Aid Funds, Inc., for the guar- antee of these loans against loss by the lender. The interest rate on these loans is generally seven per cent but borrowers who qualify may apply to have the interest paid by the Federal government until repayment begins. University Trust Loan Funds. Funds held in trust by the University provide for regular long-term loans for periods of up to two years at a time and for emer- gency loans of small amounts for periods of up to ninety days. These funds are governed by uniform principles and policies as set forth below: 20 SCHOOL OF LA W (1) Any student who has been enrolled in the University for at least one term and has a cumulative GPA of at least 2.00 may obtain an emergency loan for a period of three months or less; to be eligible for a long-term loan a student must have a GPA of 2.25. (2) The service charge for emergency loans of $10.00 or less is 50 cents for one month, 75 cents for two months, and $1.00 for three months. The service charge for emergency loans of more than $10.00 is $1.00 for one month, $1.25 for two months, and $1.50 for three months. The service charge for all overdue emergency loans is 50 cents a month until paid in full. (3) The interest rate for long-term loans is 4 per cent per year. (4) No more than $800 will be lent to any individual from University long.term loan funds. (5) It is the policy of the University to encourage repayment of loans as soon as the borrower is able to pay. The maximum loan period is two years, with the privilege of renewal if the bcrrower has in every way proved himself worthy of this consideration. Payment of loans in monthly installments as soon as possible after graduation is encouraged. The interest on renewed loans is 4 per cent a year if the borrower is still a student at the University; the rate of interest on renewals made after the student leaves the University is 6 per cent. (6) The University does not accept various forms of collateral which most money lenders require for the security of loans. The only seeurity accepted for long-term loans is the signature of two responsible property owners, in addition to that of the student borrower. The cosigners must submit evidence of their ability to pay the note-by filing a finaneial statement or by giving bank references. One cosigner must qualify by bank reference. It is desirable that one of the cosigners be the parent or guardian of the borrower. If a student is married, his or her spouse must sign the loan application. (7) The signature of the borrower is the only security required for an emergeney loan. Foreign students must also obtain the signature of the international student adviser. (8) In considering applications, weight is given to the following: (a) the student's seho- lastic record; (b) his reputation for reliability, honesty, and industry; (c) need for aid and probability of wise expenditure; (d) amount of present indebtedness; (e) ability to repay; (f) effort which the student has made to assist himself.
