Douglas Salt Lake City, Utah Air Force Reserve a. 12th Airways and Communications Det., Hill Air Force Base. b. 313th Fighter Bomber Sqd., Hill Air Force Base. College students will be called within 120 days of enlistment to begin their training. High School students will be given the opportunity of completing their high school education. They will be called to active duty approximately June 15th of each year. OPTION II. Wait for the draft. A student may choose to wait for the draft, serve 2 years on active duty and 4 years in the Reserve. When he is called, he may gain a deferment for the current quarter by making application with the draft board and presenting evidence that he is registered in school. He may repeat this deferment each quarter until one year of school is completed. Further deferment is on an individual basis for anyone whose course of study will help maintain the "national health, safety, or interest." To qualify for this further deferment a student must obtain a high grade in the Selective Service College Aptitude examination. OPTION HI. Enlist in an Established Reserve Force. A student between the ages of 17 and 26 may join a Reserve program. Each reserve program has separate requirements. In the Army Reserve he will be called to active duty at the time of draft call and will serve two years on active duty. In the Navy Reserve he will serve two years on active duty and four in the Reserve. Anyone joining the reserve between 17 and 18 1/2 years of age will be called to active duty near the end of the first year in this reserve. A student over 18 1/2 may join the Navy Reserve and be ordered to two years active duty immediately. In the Marine Reserve a student may select a two-year tour of active duty and four years in the Reserve. He will be called to active duty at the time of draft call. In the Air Force Reserve a student must have had previous military service to get into this reserve. It will fulfill the Ready Reserve obligation of all other forces. OPTION IV. Enlist in the National Guard. A student must be between the ages of 17 and 18 1/2. He must agree to train actively until the age of 28. No active duty with the regular armed force is required although survivor training with the National Guard is necessary. 41 OPTION V. Enlist in one of the Armed Forces. A student may enlist in the Army for 2 years, the Navy for 4 years, and the Coast Guard for 5 years. The Ready Reserve obligation is the difference between the time or active duty and 6 years. Reserve meetings are required for all Ready Reserve programs. OPTION VI. Join an Officer Candidate Program. There are two officer candidate programs, Marine Platoon Leaders Class and the Navy Reserve Officer Corps, available to students at Weber College that are similar to the R.O.T.C. programs; these allow a student to obtain his college degree before entering the officer training program. He must be a member of the reserve. The options indicated above are subject to change; therefore students should contact the Chairman of the Military Affairs Committee for current information. Attractive enlistment opportunities in the Armed Forces are open for those with two years of college. HEALTH SERVICES POLICIES AND PROCEDURES FOR PHYSICAL EXAMINATIONS The Health Service of Weber College has been established for the education and protection of students. The services offered are: (1.) medical examination, (2.) followup for the correction of remediable defects, and (3) adequate care in case of accidents and sudden illness. A medical examination shall be required of every student upon his initial entrance to Weber College. Registration cannot be completed without filing a completed medical examination report on the official form. The College physician shall outline and administer the physical examination with the aid of the school nurse, the chairman of the health and physical education division, and others whom he may need. A student may have the medical examination given at the regularly scheduled time by the college physician or he may, at his own expense, have his family physician give the examination and record it on the Weber College Medical Examination Record Cards. The school physician will evaluate the results of all medical examinations for the guidance and protection of the students and the college. The school physician shall be the final judge of a student's physical fitness for participation in activities and for the use of college facilities. THE HOUSING SERVICE An important factor in a student's success in accomplishing the programs he elects to follow lies in the environment in which he studies and finds his recreation, in his personal living quarters, as well as in his school. |
