GO TO THE MASS MEETING.
Today in the I.w Building will be held a maw meeting to pre
sent to the student body two Important questions-p-a new or revised
constitution for the Student Council, and the honor spirit. This is
the time for" Nebraska students to get up and "say their say." If
you don't believe in either proposition, go to the meeting and say so.
Don't wait until the matter is decided and then come around and ask
why it was done without your consent. We are decidedly interested
in both questions and we hope to see the students take an interest.
The present Student Council constitution is wholly inadequate and
through it, the students cannot gain their desired ends which the
council is supposed to consider and assist in putting into action. So
it is for the school as a whole to make the necessary changes.
In regard to the honor spirit, we will print during this week and
later, articles from other college papers over the country. Almost
every large school is discussing it and we will try to give you some
opinions of others.
A DEARTH OF
Dishonesty stalks the campus. In class and in the study room
cheating is so prevalent as to reflect disgrace upon an upright and
enterprising citizenry of the University. No one can disregard its
presence.
Copying notes, cribbing, and appropriating knowledge oi others is
the most common meihod of scholastic thievery wiih which the least
observing siudent is acquainted. The practice is so common as lo be
looked upon in the light of misdemeanor rather than dishonesty.
Evil practice becomes habit. Habit soon sears the conscience.
The trend of the limes may in part be responsible for waning
integrity. Periods of high tenison are naturally followed by intervals
of unrest. Restlessness is accompanied by a relaxation of moral be
havior. Perhaps we are passing through that struggle today.
College students are not the only class affected by the aftermath
of the war. Governments are uneasy; dissatisfaction is broadcast;
all mankind is restless. It would be an unjust accusation to charge
the rollege student as being less honest than other groups. Fifty
laboring men, fifty preachers, fifty college professors would doubtless
contain as many exceptions to integrity as fifty students. All man
kind is affected more or less by the passing of the gTeat war. That
reaction upon ihe college student is reflected in his scholaslic in
tegrity. A few students have been dropped from the University during the
past year for dishonest work. Others (19), for the first offense have
been failed, and dropped from the course. "Failed in the course be
cause of dishonest work," is the red scrawl that decorates their re
port cards. Many have been saved from such disgrace by the leni
ency of the professor. Such action is the result of the administration
in the detective role. His findings are not adequate to the situation.
Daily lowan.
THE WAR AND EDUCATIONAL VALUES.
Have educational values been cheapened by the war? A woman
writer in The Independent bewails the supposition lhat post-bellum
wells of knowledge are poisoned by practicality.
A quotation epitomizes her thought:
"I am assuredly not so narrow of mind as to ignore the great
potential educational worth of the sciences. I do mourn to see them
degraded in the popular mind solely to the uses of feeding and cloth
ing us It is literally a cheapening of all our national ideals to
pervert education to such ends, to distort the experiences of the war
into such lessons."
This sharply raises the question: Is man to be the slave of
education, or is education to be the servant of man?
Pursuing The Independent writer's hypothesis to its conclusions,
our own Dr. Babcock must have been a ftcientific perversionist on an
international scale.
Let us clear our minds of cant. Just as art for art's sake is the
wornout shibboleth of the dilettante, so also the Idea of culture purely
for culture's sake. Art is for life's sake. So is science. So is educa
tion in general.
If war has brought a new emphasis on meeting practical needs
of society, then that emphasis is only the emanation from a new,
more highly developed social conscience.
Of course we must Insist that the humanities continue to be
taught to help interpret the present and tie future through an under
standing of the past.
But narrow classicalists who sneer at social amelioration as the
ultimate justification of education are out of tune with the times.
Practical ends are not irreconcilable with social idealism. Daily
Cardinal.
