REGULATIONS Supervision of Women. As far as space permits, all women students rooming in Cedarville during the school year are expected to live in Harriman Hall. If accommodations are not available for all at Harriman Hall, the Dean of Women will assist women students to find rooms in carefully approved private homes. The Housemothers, both in the Dormi, tory and in private homes where women students may be rooming, co, operate with the Dean of Women in seeing that rules are observed. In the Dormitory, a house-president and a student-government committee assist the Dean and the Housemother. Women students are expected to be in by nine-thirty o'clock P. M. except on Friday, Saturday and Sunday night when they must be in by ten-thirty. With the written permission of the Dean upperclassmen may be out later on Tuesday, Thursday, Friday and Saturday night, Freshmen on Thursday, Friday and Satur, day nights. Other rules affecting students of the college are similar to those in force at the majority of Christian colleges. An advisory system by which each student is encouraged to regard some member of the faculty as his special advisor has recently been inaugurated. This is of benefit, of course, in all aspects of college life and develooment, and only incidentally as regards the rules for students. RELIGIOUS LIFE Convocation.
