CO-OPERATION NEEDED
Students who favor the establishment of a Student Council
should not quarrel about the choice of the charter convention, nor
should organizations and classes that expect representation in the
council feel disappointed because they were not given representation
on the charter commission.
It must be remembered that this commit tee of eight has no
powers other than that of suggesting to the student body and the
faculty a plan for a student council. If tiiis plan is not ratified by
the vote of the students and faculty senate it will not be adopted.
Everj- organization and every class will be given the fullest oppor
tunity to present its claims for consideration of the commission, and
all will have equal voice in deciding whether the plan as finally
drawn up shall be accepted.
Sophomore and freshmen classes have not been slighted in the
appointment of the charter commission. It is right that this body
should have as its members students who are mature and fully
acquainted with student life. They can be depended upon to give
fair play to all classes.
Every student organization and every class should bend all
efforts now toward helping this commission draw up the student
council plan. Progress should not be halted by a division over ways
and means.
THE IDEA OF SERVICE
The willingness of student organizations in the University to
forget themselves in working for the common good, so strikingly
illustrated during the past few days, shows that University men
and women are learning that the truest enjoyment in Hie comes
from lending the helping hand.
The student who forgets his selfish hopes and thinks mere or
serving his school and his class is getting far more from his college
course than the one who schemes eternally to draw all possible
honors to himself, regardless of the common good.
One who can unconsciously give of himself the best that is in
him toward helping along his fellows may not gain a prominence in
the public eye. but he will fall heir to friendships that are lasting
and a happiness that is soul satisfying.
AN OPPORTUNITY
A national conclave of representatives of every student council
in the United States will meet at Purdue university the first week
in March, to exchange ideas and experiences so that student self
government associations may be perfected.
This is a particularly opportune time for Nebraska to get some
first-hand information of the practical workings of a student council,
in order that the one which is to be organized here will embrace all
of the best features of the others. Nebraska should have a represen
tative at the convention.
Contributions of small amounts from different University organ
izations would defray the expenses of a delegate from this school.
Enough organizations on the campus have a surplus in their treas
uries to raise the money that is needed. Which will be the one to
start contributions?
