For This Issue
"HELLO WEEK"
On November 15 Homecoming Day was inaugurated the first
Nebraska "Hello" day. Do you remember it? Do you remember the
little thrill you felt when someone who had always been a sort of
far-away idol of yours, called a cheery "hello" across the campus to
you? Or when you spoke to a strange classmate, how his smile
lingered in your consciousness. Of course everyone did not try the
plan, but those who did found it a very satisfactory experiment.
Remembering that successful day, why not begin this semester
with a "hello week"? There are many new students on the campus
and many old ones whom you do not know. Let's start this semester
with a democratic, fellowship spirit that will make a deep impression.
After all, everyone wants friends, and underneath your neighbor's
distant manner is that same desire. His reserve may only be shyness
and if you make him forget himself and his nervousness, he will re
spond readily. Don't be afraid to make the first advances. It is al
ways the big, broad-minded man who first says that he i- orry, who
first apoligizes and who first recognizes the claims of his fellow citi
zens. So in speaking to the other man first, you put yourself in the
class of true, democratic Americans.
As you do into new classes, many of your old class-room acquaint
ances will be gone. Do not let those friendships be lost watch for
your former friends on the campus and make it a point to remember
them. Moreover, get acquainted with your new classmates and
make these friendships ones to last beyond weekly, monthly or
semester ties.
THE NEW SEMESTER
Registration is over and the new work has begun. Registration
to some means merely a continuation of more or less interesting
subjects, in some cases less attractive because taken merely for a
requirement with no special aim in view. These are the people who
find much of life's work drudgery, for they do not try to develop
themselves along any but selfish lines. To others, registration means
embarking upon entirely new fields of work. A new semester will
have a different significance for the freshman, the middle-classman
and the senior.
The idea of individual responsibility belong to the freshman. He
must adapt himself to an entirely different atmosphere than that of
the high school or academy. He will no longer be guided and super
vised by his teachers, except in a general way. Consequently he must
learn to work out his own system of study, to discipline himself in
school and social relations and to accept success or failure from the
self-inflicted view-point. The way in which the freshman adapts
himself to these strange and often confusing surroundings and applies
himself to school work and making friendships, will have much in
fluence on his future successes in life.
Each registration brings added responsibilities and problems, and
as the undergraduate progresses in university, he must adopt a
broader outlook on life. His ideas of world problems, business and
society become mere complex, and the wise student will arrange his
course to meet these problems. The university age Is really the
growth period of life and he who makes the most of those four years
will be well rewarded.
The senior perhaps pays more attention to this last semester
than anyone. It is his last opportunity to round out his education in
order to make his university life valuable to future business adven
tures. It is his last few months in the circle of university friendships,
of which there Is no equal anywhere.
The result of the vote on the question of teachers' salaries shows
that Lincoln people are standing back of education. This overwhelm
ing opinion of the Lincoln patrons proves that they are certainly
thinking right on the subject and are beginning to realize the market
value as well as the cultural benef J of education. This election
should be of interest to all university students, since they will be
called upon to support and back educational movements in their home
communities.
