A DEFINITE PLAN
Considerable space has been given
In this column to the matter of
delayed pledging. The advantages
and disadvantages of the system
have been discussed at length. It
seems proper now to outline a plan
that would be workable at the Uni
versity of Nebraska, and leave the
matter to those interested for con-
sideration.
A plan suggested chiefly for pur
poses of discussion, might be as fol
lows: Pledging would be delayed until
the beginning of the second semes
ter. Rushing might be carried on in
the first semester, with the possible
exception of a week or two at the
beginning of the year, in which the
freshmen might get a better start
unmolested.
Rushing would be confined to Fri
days and Saturdays. On other days
in the week no rushee could be a
guest at meal-time or remain in a
fraternity house after 6 o'clock in
the evening.
The best way to extend bids, it
would seem, would be in writing,
with an interval of two or three days
after the bid had been extended
before acceptance. This would give
the .student time to consider the
matter calmly and would prevent
"high pressure" methods of pledg
ing. Some men might "spike," or agree
to later pledge, a fraternity. That,
however, would be to their own dis
advantage, as they would lose their
. chance for unmolested decision.
The ordinary method of accepting
bids where delayed pledging is used
is for the rushee to appear at dinner
on a designated evening. If he has
not made a decision he may wait
until later to pledge. Freshmen who
break pledges might be prohibited
from pledging another fraternity for
a semester, for no claim of insuffi
cient time for consideration or of
"high pressure" methods would be
valid.
It might be well to initiate early
in the second year. This plan would
weed out the men who come to
school for a semester or a year,
merely to "make" a fraternity, and
it would bring more men back to
school.
There may be many faults in this
plan; it may be unsuitable, but that
some form of delayed pledging
would be valuable we strongly con
tend. At least it will serve as a
basis for discussion and it may bring
forth some much better system.
USE THE LIBRARY.
Many students in the University
fail to make proper use of the Uni
versity library. Often this is true
because of ignorance of what the
library contr.ins atd of how to use
it To remedy this, the freshmen
are given a small pamphlet contain-
Better let us do the
TRIMMING
FOR this week than
MIZZOU
Liberty Barber Shop
E. A. Ward
131 N. 13
ing the main information about the
library.
Many upperclassmcn, however,
know little about this very important
institution and fail to do assigned
reading. They might do well to ask
for the copy of the informational
pamphlet or borrow one from a
freshman.
The College Press
PAY FOR PROFESSORS.
So frequently have articles appear
ed in the last year or two on the in
sufficiency of incomes of schoolmen
that the terms inadequate salary
and university professor have almost
become synonymous. We have often
read of the college instructor, after
a vacation of starvation, attempt
ing to make the best of the uncom
fortable situation of satisfying his
many creditors; and just often we
have heard discussions on the means
of transferring the great amount of
money spent on nonsense to the field
of education.
But all this agitation has accom
plished nothing other than the arous
ing of interest, and few are the pro
fessors that can obtain food and
shelter in exchange for human in
terest. The lastest figures from the
Bureau of Education show that the
average professor is paid only
$3,392 annually; associate profes
sors, $2,800; assistant professors
$2,300, and instructors, $1,800.
Only four universities paid full time
professors as much as $8,000, the
great majority paying $3,000 or less
Several large institutions reported as
low as three and four thousand dol
lars for the salary of the president.
With such astoundingly low sal
aries, it is not difficult to see why
friends of higher education are at
work in the interests of the profes
sors. Nor is it hard to comprehend
the reason for the loss of some of
the ablest professional men. Indeed,
the situation as it exists today pre
sents a problem that must be met
without delay, else the entire sys
tem of higher learning collapse to
mediocrity because of inability to
retain competent men as instructors.
It is for us to see that the most bril
liant minds seek out the university,
and not "flee from it as from a
desert isle" as one writer states.
Just what amount should be paid
professors is yet a matter of discus
sion, Mr. Frank Bohn, writing in
the current issue of the Forum,
suggesting $50,000. He believes
that this amount could easily be met
by appropriating future gifts to sal

aries Instead of buildings, as over
two billions have been done in the
last decade or two. True, many of
our present professors are not worth
half that, nor even one-fiftieth that
amount; but had $50,000 been the
salary of leading professors in the
past, many of the nation's greatest
leaders in the field of business would
never have deserted the teaching
profession. To keep higher educa
tion on the plane it rightfully de
serves is to keep tho most brilliant
minds on the teaching faculty, and
brilliant minds cannot be kept with
