K'S. second, realisation by the Instruct or that the student'- opinion, thouKh perhaps not well-founded, la of aome vnluo anil an indication of a mind actually In quent of an education. "What I want from you," a pro fessor said in his opening lecture to his class, is "real thinking, not merely the exercise of a retentive memory. Pon't parrot my lecture, don't come to see me and demon strate how you can repeat my gold en words. When you do, those words have lost all their gilt; they're dead." There are, however, many stu whose success in this respect is due entirely to the procedure which the professor condemns. They are not fcluJeitU, but merely sponges who absorb information without thought. They set down that information on paper on examination day, as near ly in the instructor's words as pos sible. Such students do not receive an education. Education means more than the receiving of information; it means that facts must be inter preted in terms of life. Each year the list of Phi Beta Kappa is announced, and tnose el ected are said to have received the greatest honor that a student can receive. But in this group are alsoj some, who though they have re ceived high grades, are uneducated; they are no more than storehouses for information. Let the student who would be educated work for high grades, but only as a means to education. High grades, it is true, indicate that the student has gained a knowledge of the subject matter. If he combines with this an independent attitude of mind, a willingness to use his originality even at the expense of grades, and a genuine desire to de velop an intellect for thought as well as facts, he will be truly edu cated. The attitude of some professors, however, encourages a slavish atti tude in the students. There are in structors who hold their opinions so high that they bitterly resent any difference with them. They count a critical attitude on the part of the student not as an indication of a kt.er mind seeking for and weighing knowledge, but as an in sult to their erudition. Of coure, there is a limit to this critical attitude. The student must master the facts and understand the instructor's viewpoint, but that he may form a different conclusion from the same facts is not only pos sible but usually a sign of intellec tual activity. To remedy this evil of too great emphasis on grades, then, two things are needed: first, a willingness of the student to use his intellect and thereby risk a slightly lower mark; ANOTHER WELCOME. . Last week several thousand stu dents went to the depot to greet the Cornhuskers when they returned from a victory over Illinois. Today they will have an opportunity to greet the same team returned from nn unexpected defeat. If the Hunker followers want to dhow that they ore not worshippers of victory, they can do so by turn ing out as well to greet the team af ter defeat as they did after victory. Whatever the cause for the upset at Missouri whether tho Tigers were the better team, Ne braska was over-confident, or Mis souri plnyed over its head there is no doubt that the game was bitter ly contested and that both teams gave all they had. A team that fights as well as the Cornhuskers did, both ns Illinois and Missouri, deserves a good welcome. If No brnskans value a gallant spirit ns highly as winning, the tenm will have that welcome. trlcts in tho United Stutes, and the crews from the different sections meet at Stuart every year in a speed contest.
