College seniors accepted in the Law School and Graduate School of Arts and Sciences will face opposite re-admission policies when they return from Service, it was learned yesterday.
Newly accepted men in the Law School will be given no special priority when they come back--though they will not have to retake the Legal Aptitude Examination, Louis A. Toepfer, director of Law School admissions, reported. He added, however, that "all other things being equal, we will do our best for them."
Reginald Phelps, assistant dean of the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences, explained that "once a student has been accepted in the GSAS, he will definitely be given preference on returning." He said that no special arrangement had yet been made as regards the readmission of students already in graduate school, although these men, he said, would be given first priority.
Toepfer said that men now in Law School will definitely be re-admitted. "We will do everything possible not to delay their education any longer," he stated.
Toepfer explained the Law School's policy on newly admitted men by saying that "it would be difficult to have three or four hundred students all trying to enter at the same time. That's why we can make no promises."
