For This Issue
TO PRESENT NEW ISSUES.
Tomorrow at the regular convocation hour, will be held a mass
meeting for the purpose of presenting to the student body two vital
questions the. honor spirit and a new constitution for the Student
Council. These are propositions which are of real interest to every
Nebraskan and are to be settled by the whole school. This convoca
tion is to present the facts and a vote will be polled later.
Perhaps the most interesting feature of the plan is to try to put
the honor spirit into action to a small degree during the coming mid
semester examinations. In this way, people will have an actual idea
of its practical working value and will be better able to discuss the
subject when it comes up for vote. The honor system is being in
stalled in many of the largest colleges of the country and as a matter
of fact, Nebraska is a little slow in taking up the gauntlet in the
fight. Let's have some real interest started during these discussions,
for whether it passes or fails is going to affect every student in the
University. It has been suggested that student opinions would be a
good way to test the campus barometer on the question, so if you
have any ideas for or against it, the Daily Nebraskan will be glad to
publish them.
"Winton Churchill has created a furor in England by saying that
labor is not capable of governing. Probably not. Neither is capital.
In fact, government is a task in which proficiency has never been
exhibited by any group or party."
NEBRASKA SHOWS SCHOOL SPIRIT.
The 1920 Cornhn-ker campaign closed with the highest record of
subscriptions ever reached in the University of Nebraska, the list
totaling approximately 2.100 books sold on the city, farm and Omaha
campuses. The result of this drive most admirably proves that Ne
braska University is up to the top in school spirit and loyally, for
the sales were made to more than two out of every three students on
the campus. It is a splendid thing when the annual year-book of a
school gains the prestige and reputation to be so popular among such
a large group of students. It is when this loyalty and local pride
reigns that real things can be accomplished in a college and this cam
paign is an inspiration to those who are working for the "grea'er
University of Nebraska."
DOES COLLEGE PAY?
'"Does college really pay?" is a question that bothers not a few
people. There seems to be some strength in the argument that after
all college satisfies a craving of the mind but goes only a little way
in satisfying the body with the physical necessities of life. That is.
college may fulfill the desire one has for knowledge, but is not an
altogether sure bread-getter.
With graduate chemical, mechanical, and electrical engineers
getting only $90 a month with a semi-annual advance of $10 for two
years (this is exactly what a certain gas company now offers for
trained technical men and what the government is offering to
graduate engineers of two years' experience), and milk peddlers get
ting $150 a month and commission, it is not surprising that many
undergraduates get disgusted and think, "What's the use?"
They know that they can go out into the world, learn some trade
and in a year or so earn more per week perhaps than their instructors
are earning in a month. But they do not know that Just now the
whole wage scale is in a state of supreme disorder and confusion,
that the present scale Is bound to revert to a properly proportionate
state whereby he of higher intellect and training will demand the
higher pay.
Just such a movement is now on foot The laborer got his pres
ent high wage because he organized and went after it The trained
of mind, profiting by the laborer's example now place their demands
on the table and it is inevitable that they be acceded to.
If pecuniary reasons alone bring the student to the university,
he can rest assured that the time Is not far off when the financial re
ward of the man who has acquired a technical college education will
far exceed that of the unskilled, unschooled man. Daily Cardinal.
