like the swallows at Capistrano or the leaf buds on the trees, a sure sign of coming summer is the arrival of the PSU Summer Session Catalog. It's here, bursting with over 500 course offerings and the promise of a lively summer on campus. It's a breeze to enroll in PSU Summer Session courses, with new classes starting every week and lasting anywhere from two days to eleven weeks. One tuition rate for in-state and out-of-state students and cash incentives for successful course completions make Summer Session even more attractive. More foreign languages are offered at PSU's Summer Session than in any other program west of the Mis'ii'i'iippi River, and PSU attracts the greatest number of foreign visiting faculty in the country. This year over two dozen foreign visitors and several visiting faculty from other parts of the U.S. will be on campus to share their expertise in classes as well as public lectures . And it all happens in an atmosphere charged with cultural and recreational opportunities. This summer marks the first season of the University's new Summer Festival Theater, come home from Cannon Beach (see pp 8-9). Popular and classical music events abound on campus and throughout the city, and numerous outings are planned to Oregon's scenic spots. Summer Session catalogs, featuring black and while photographs of Portland's fountains and detachable color postcards of the PSU campus, are a\lailable at the SummeT Session office or the Registration window, both on the first floor of Neuberger Hall.
