These consist of satisfactorily completing a minimum number of credit hours in the natural sciences, social sciences, literature and historical-cultural fields. Moreover, if a degree candidate in Liberal Arts, you must complete two semesters of study in a foreign language. Regardless of the classes you choose to take, competition will be heavy. Quizzes, mid-terms, and finals are forever coming around the corner, allowing no time just to "catch up". Regular attendance at class and a daily review of lecture notes will prove invaluable. In addition to the study facilities provided in your dorm room there are downstairs study rooms in both Currier and Burge. The various campus libraries also offer many niches conductive to solid hours of concentration. Among these are the Main Library and those of the Math-Physics, Art, Education, and Chemistry Departments. Open throughout the week, they are accessible to any SUI student regardless of his major field. Many students, however, prefer to drop into the downstairs study room in Schaeffer Hall or the Music Room of the Iowa Memorial Union, though reference books are not at hand in such locales. Should special problems arise in line with your studies it's a good idea to take immediate remedial action. Course instructors are always happy to consult with you during their office hours, which are announced early in the semester. in some instances private tutors may be the cure and can be secured by the hour for a minimal fee. Supplementary readings sometimes aid in clarifying certain concepts not easily grasped from regular assignments. Whatever happens, don't slack off on daily work. Have your required texts on hand during the first weeks of class. If you are not sure of a title or author check with the local bookstores, who have complete course lists on hand, or see your instructor. It's a good thing to act early, as often the supply runs low, and the delay of a special order puts you behind. In addition to the University, Iowa Supply, and Hawkeye Bookstores in Iowa City, textbooks may be purchased at the Student Book Exchange in Schaeffer Hall. Don't let that initial "newness" get you down. You'll soon feel like a native while scurrying across the river from the Art Building to Macbride in the alloted ten minutes. Some classes may be lectures of incomprehensible size upon first glimpse, but never let this send you out of orbit. This is just as new to most of your fellow students, and with a little experience all will seem quite natural. Good grades are the result of responsible and efficient use of time. The establishment of goals at this time and a sincere effort to achieve them may well be all it takes to send your soaring aloft during your four year stint of duty at SUI. 14
