BEYOND THE FRATERNITY
Within the past few days hun
dreds of young men and young wo
men entering the University have
been welcomed at the homes of
sororities and fraternities and many
have accepted membership invita
tions in Greek letter organizations.
A large group of freshmen, however,
will remain outside the fraternity
lists when the announcement of
pledges is made.
Rushing and bidding are so carried
on at the University of Nebraska that
it is left to the fraternity to give to
new students their first impression
of college life. It is unfortunately
true that in these contracts fresh
men receive little consciousness of a
life beyond the boundaries of the
fraternity circle. The uppcrclassmen
whom he meets often bhow them
selves to be concerned only with
their own fraternity brothers and to
be aware of no one else tn Lincoln
except the small group of fraterni
ties against whom their organizations
rush. Discussion of academic inter
ests is largely confined to comments
on the congested condition in regis
tration.
The result is that the freshman
emerges with an exaggerated idea of
the importance of fraternities in col
lege life. He has been made to feel
falsely that it is the center of at
tractiveness in the world he is enter
ing.
If the intelligent freshman is not
unfortunate in his development he
will find as he becomes acclimated
to new surroundings that the fra
ternity is not the chief and sole pur
pose of the university. He will find
as he learns, how to evaluate truly
the institutions about him that be
yond serving as living headquarters
the fraternity's chief function lies in
the social realm. He will come to
know that more than half of the
students of the University have no
vital interest in fraternity life and
that they are no less real in their
personalities because this is true. He
will find about him many of the fin
est of students who voluntarily re
main outside the fraternity and are
able to state definitely their reasons
for doing so. Further and most im
portant, the academic life of the in
stitution will assume its proper pro
portions in his consciousness and he
will be introduced into circles where
the fraternity cuts no figure at all.
The fraternity doubtless has its
place, particularly in a university
which provides no othGr living facili
ties for its students. It has connected
with it however an unfortunate char
acteristic when it leaves freshmen at
the end of their first fortnight of
college life with no broader impres
sion of the University than its own
walls.
Miss Pound Writes
Article on Whitman
Miss Louise Pound of the depart
ment of English Literature contribu
ted an article on "Walt Whitman and
Italian Music" to the September
number of the American Mercury,
which has been termed important by
critics. One said: "Its approach to
Walt Whitman is a new. and import
ant re-interpretation of his own at
titude and intentions. It is strange
that so little has been said about
this aspect of him when Italian musi
cal terms are spread all over the
poet's pages. The point of view ex
plains the recitative-aria movements
of a dozen of the great poems. It
also throws stress on the great ima
ginative poems and properly minim
izes the naturalistic poems. I be
lieve that it makes for a greater
Whitman."
Miss Pound also received a person
al invitation to attend the meetings
of the Modern Language Association
of Germany during September of
this year.
