STUDENT MORALITY
Within the post few years book?
have become popuiar which toll of
immorality among young people in
general and university students in
particular. This has created in
many people the feeling that univer-'
sities are breeders of iniquity
places where the authorities wink at
drinking and other vice.
Thero is drinking and vice at all
uiiitei&iUes, of eourse. So is there
also in any group of young people.
The students come to this univer
sity, as to all others, from all types
of homes, the best and the lowest.
Their parents are good, bad and in
different Some of them are prob
ably bootleggers, or have been con
victed of other crimes.
With such a homogeneous group
as this it is natural that there are
some who have leanings toward the
primrose. They have their fling,
and, ordinarily, they are thrown
out of school. Some escape detec
tion, of course.
When some students get into any
trouble and the newspapers hear of
it, stories are published of "wild
parties by university students," and
the whole school is dammed, even
though only one, or two, or three
may have been involved. Some pa
pers, in their eagerness for news, ex
pand some entirely innocent happen
ing into a sensation.
It is because of this tendency to
play up the story of a student in
trouble while the list of Phi Beta
Kappas is given small space, togeth
er with the present deluge of drivel
in book form about university life,
that causes the wide-spread belief
that university students are particu
larly immoral.
But if the readers of this slush
are unacquainted with university life
they should remember that it is a
fair cross-section of the life of the
state, no better and no worse.
STUDENT OPINIONS.
Several contributions to the Stu
dent Opinion Column have been re
ceived by the editor of the Nebras
kan on which there was nothing to
indicate the author. Since letters
are not publLshed unless signed, or
at least unless the authorship is i
known to the editor, the.se anany-
roous letters have not appeared.
By special arrangement with the
editor letters can be published anony
mously or signed with initals only.
If the writers of the letters now in
the editor's hands will make their
identity known their letters will be
published.
The culture of America lies in the
metropolis, according to Marcus Eli
Savage, who discusses the subject of
"Where is the Culture of America" i
in the October issue of the Elk's
magazine.

Student Opinion
The Daily Nebraskan assumes
no responsibility for the senti
ments expressed by correspon
dents, and reserves the right to
exclude any communication
whose publication may for any
reason seem undesirable. Ex
cept by special arrangement,
communications cannot bo pub
lished anonymously.
To The Editor:
The action of the Student Council
announcing immediately the result
of the honorary colonel election will
mar one of the great and looked-for
events of the military ball. One of
the groat features of the military
balls in the past has been the intro
duction of the new honorary col wl
whose identity was always zealously
kept secret. Needless to say, that
thrill will be missing this year.
The action of the student council
in this matter which is of direct con
cern to the military department for
whom the sponsor is elected, and
which stages the military ball is
hardly to be commended.
I can understand well the motives
of the election committee which were
no doubt prompted by a high desire
to keep the election open and above
board, but it does not seem to me
that there could have been a little co
operation with the cadet authorities
for the purpose of having a more
successful military ball.
A suggestion is offered that the
student council next year withhold
the announcement of the honorary
colonel until the appropriate time at
the military ball, as was the custom
at Nebraska for many years prior to
last year when the council was given
jurisdiction.

SUPERIOR STUDENTS.
In the good old days all college
men were thought to be superior
objectionably so. That those who
were placed above them looked up
on them as "equals in superiority"
may today seem absurd, yet that was
the case. A degree was a ticket to
superiority; it was one of the para
doxes of nineteenth century demo
cracy. Then were degrees confer
red with various distinctions; soon
the degrees lost their degrees and a
sheepskin was a sheepskin.
Since the war there has been a
great swelling in the student body
of every college and university in the
country. The country is fairly over
run with students, but unfortunately
from all sides come the reports that
for the most part they do not make

"good student mate ' '." So, if
colleges, considering thi- greater cost
are to maintain their standards, let
alone raiso them, they must separate
the -sheep from tho goafs.
This is the burden of an article by
Dr. C. F. Thwing in School and So
ciety; he advocates mental tests. At
Wisconsin the first mid-semesters
are the mean of deciding whether
the student will remain in our midst
or not, the psychological test has not
as yet been adopted. In tho last
thirty years college lifo has been
greatly changed. Hundreds in the
colleges have been multiplied to
thousands. Tho place of athletics has
raised tremendously, and tho num
ber and tmpomince extra-curricular
activities has increased to an extent
which is sometimes alarming. Un
fortunately, these things nrc too of-

in the classroom is regarded as inci
' dental. As a result of these factors,
J the professor has boon forced to
withdraw from the university society
of which he should. The operations
on the curriculum have become more
land more mechanical, more and more
standardized; pupil and teacher now
feel that to a certain extent their
mutual relations cease at the close of
the class period. It is very unfortu
nate that free and unrestrained in
tercourse between the undergraduate
and the professor is lost due to demo
cracy in education.
These are the conditions that exist,
however, and the undergraduates
must try to overcome them as best
he can. A word to the wise mem
bers of the class of '29 must try to
so choose their several ways so as
to avoid the snares and pitfalls of
our modern educational system. In
other words don't be a goat. The
