Concentrators Warn Soc Rel Is Not a 'Gut'

'Disconnected' Material, Tough Generals Spell Death for Loafers, Society Cautions '52

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

Members of the undergraduate Social Relations Society, fearing that their already crowded department may be flooded by "gut-seeking" freshmen, have prepared a letter to prospective concentrators warning them that Social Relations is no easy major.

The new type general and divisional exams which went into effect in January make it impossible to slip through the course without work, Charles H. Tilly '50, president of the Society, added last night.

Material Disconnected

The manifesto lists the "often disconnected" material and the "disunified" state of the department as reasons why the Sec. Rel. students must sweat to learn about the subject.

The letter will be available at the Social Relations office and at a meeting of the Society Tuesday for freshmen who want to get the lowdown on the department from upperclassmen.

The Society is acting to protect itself as well as to tip off Yardlings, Tilly explained, because it is difficult even now for a concentrator to consult with a faculty member.
