ENFORCE RULES
The discovery by the University
authorities that the freshmen of sev
eral organizations have been holding
"sneak night" parties is not surpris
ing. Activities of a similar nature
have been carried on for some time.
They have been getting nearer and
nearer to violation of University rul
ings until the participants are almost
incapable of determining the dividing
line. Numerous groups of students
are continually engaging in noc
turnal wanderings. The greatest
pleasure they may derive from these
wanderings is comparable to that of
the small boy on Hallowe'en.
The students who take part in these
spontaneous movements may have
made all the preparations necessary
for the next day's recitations, but the
loss of several hours of sleep in diffi
cult to make up. And sleep is just
as necessary for proper recitations as
the time spent on preparation.
These sporadic- "serenades," and
so on, lead -beyond violation of Uni
versity rules to breaking municipal
and state laws. The "wild" ideas that
students conceive on such occasions
are actually the product of partially
unbalanced minds, the possessors of
which would be safer at the police
station. It is not advocated that stu
dents be arrested for every harmless
disturbance, but some of them liter
ally don't know when to stop.
All this is averted by simple en
forcement of "all in" hours by
organizations and individuals. Es
pecially, under ro circumstances
should freshmen stay out until very
late hours on week nights.
Newest Type of Education in New
York Universities Is by Radio
Not content with dealing out its
fundamentals to persons in class
rooms and lecture halls, education has
found another way to reach thous
ands of persons. Science's latest

was the reception in the evening,
which was featured by the speeches
by Chancellor Avery, Governor More
head and many others.
For the benefit of the many alum
ni in town for the Minnesota game
the management of the 1914 Corn-
huskcr took subscriptions for that
notable experiments in education by
the "air method" last winter. A
scries of lectures was broadcast from
WEAF by the Home Study Extension
Division of the Unviersity. Success
of the school was assured by two
year's annual. inus enaming me methods. First, of course, the num-

for the debate with Iowa.
WEEDING OUT THE UNFIT
Because of the overcrowded con
dition of the University of Nebras
ka, it is impossible for eight out of
ten students to obtain a proper edu
cation. Classrooms are so filled that
the instructor must in many cases
confine himself to lectures where
other methods might be more effec
tive. Enrollment in many classes is
so large that the instructor cannot
give the attention to the individual
that he should! Each student has a
special need, and it should be pos
sible by means of conferences and
special instruction, to suit him. The
libraries and reading-rooms are so
crowded that it is impossible to do
respectable work in them, impossible
to get the books one wants, impos
sible to torn out an honest piece of
work because of the confusion and
noise attendant upon such crowding.
The whole situation tends to make
the University merely a huge di-ploma-mall,
turning out a machine
finished product from which the
slight veneer of education will be
' worn off after a few months.
Possibly more than half the stu
dents who are now enrolled in the
University have no desire for a real
education they merely wish to have
a four-year's good time, or put off
their business career for a while. The
thing to be done, obviously, is to de
vise some method of weeding out
these undesirable individuals those
who have no real desire for an educa
tion. Merely raising the fees, it is ap
parent, would not accomplish this
weeding-out. Possession of sufficient
money to meet the advanced cost is
no indication of intelligence or a de
sire for an education.
It is impossible to separate the vo
cational and professional colleges
from the liberal arts college because
of public opposition to du-!;-ation of
executive and overhead cenae, ana
the wasting of heavy investments al
ready made in buildings and equip
ment Intelligence tests would not solve
' the problem, for the brilliant stu
dent not always has the greatest de
sire for learning, or the best prep
aration for a higher education.

Apr College Football
Team Plays in Omaha
Coach Rufus Dewitz's Ag College
football team will journey to Oma
ha, Thursday to meet the Omaha
University team. So far this sea
son, the Aggies have won two and
lost two games. The teams beaten
by them were Cotner College and
the State Reformatory team, and the
Aggies were beaten by York College
and by the State Reformatory. Coach
Dcwitz has beca putting his team
Possibly a strengthening of en- through some hard practice grinds
trance requirements so tliat high- and he is expecting a favorable out-
school students would be forced real-1 come for this game.
Ij to work would meet the problem.
A person with the ability and desire
to go through four years of hard
preparation for college will probably
have a real desire for it and s basis
for it as welL
Dr. John Pucelik, '22, of the Col
lege of Dentistry was one of the vis
itors Saturday. It will be remem
bered that Pucelik was chosen as an
all American tackle in 1920.
University showed that the lessons
were being well received. Second, a
syllabus was sent to listeners who
paid a nominal fee for it. The sylla
bus was merely an outline of the en
tire course and one did not need it to
listen to the lectures. Yet the num
ber of fees received indicated the
feeling of the student body.
Courses this year in the- Columbia
University school will tend towards
the care and tiarning of young chil
dren. Ten lectures will be broadcast
ed, one each week. If this first
course is as successful as authorities
expect it to be, there will be more
lectures in courses of ten weeks each.
Eight courses are to be offered to
listeners-in on station WJZ, broad
casting lectures from New York Uni
versity. The work will be in line with
that of regular classes, but will be
simpif ied so that any one may under
stand. Some of the subjects covered
by this colege are archaeology, poli
tics and statesmanship, economics,
geology, biology, English and history.
Faculty members of the Home
Study Extension Division at Columbia
have heard that some day all students
will attend classes in pajamas or
other negligee attire, via radio. This
last idea has been suggested by some
enthusiastic radio fans who believe
that some day all colleges and univer
sities will carry on their work by
radio. Authorities believe that one
goes to university to learn life, and
cannot gain this information by the
absorption of knowledge.
As yet work in the radio college is
not being accepted towards degrees or
certificates at Columbia. The plan
is still in the experimental stage.
Probably such things will be common
in a few years, however. Faculty
members say that the radio courses
are designated to supplement and not
supplant regular college education.
