The majority Of men students re-
piled that the war had directly af-

The women appeared less dis.
turbed, many reporting that the
war had had little effect upon their
college careers to date.
Several students stated that
transportation difficulties had
caused them to make trips home
far less often than before. Many
said that the war had made them
become more serious about them

Among other ways OF aiding the
