LETS GROW UP!
At a number of colleges there is
agitation to abolish the hazing of
frpshmen. At Connecticut Agncul
tural college hazing was put under
the ban when a freshman was injured
in some stunt. At the University of
California hazing is being criticized
with considerable enthusiasm.
Indiscriminate battling between
freshmen and sophomores has been
largely done away with at the Uni
versity of Nebraska. The Olympics
seems to satisfy the feelings of both
sides, while occasional skirmishes oc
cur as the Olympics draw near, fresh
men are by no means downtronaen.
Where other schools educate their
freshmen in traditions by forcing
them to sing school songs on demand
n- tn recite the history of any tra
dition, Nebraska educates its fresh
men in traditions and near-traditions
by the comparatively painles meth
od of the "N book. The Iron fcpninx,
a sophomore organization with the
avowed purpose of seeing that the
freshmen wear the green caps, make
many dire threats, but we recall no
instance in our school life of any pun
ishment If any freshman feels that
he is sacrificing his individuality by
wearing a green cap he can probably
wear what he pleases without molest
ation. Only in the fraternites with their
"probation weeks" does the hazing
spirit persist In this week the fresh
men are paddled with great abandon,
are forced to go practically without
sleep, and are subjected to many
humiliations. In defense of this
horseplay it is claimed that by being
companions in misery the freshmen
are made to "stick together and get
some class spirit" The practice has
been soundly attacked, but each of
the freshman class seems to feel that
since it had to go through with pro
bation week it will be a fitting re
venge to put the new crop through
also. The former freshmen are
lamentably prone to forget what pro
bation week was like as sooj as they
are past its terrors.
With the conformity that one
would expect to find in so senseless
a proceeding, the probation weeks of
the fraternities usually take about
the same form.
Physical punishment in most cases
forms a large part of the program.
This is done in various ways, but is
chiefly by paddling. "Paddling"
sounds innocent enough but when a
number of husky upper-classmen are
swinging barrel staves with their full
strength the result is no joke to the
victim. Some upper-classmen seen
to take a savage delight in paddling,

evincing the same attitude as does a
man who torments a fly with a brok
en wing pleasure in inflicting pain.
Other, and keener forms of torture
Include the use of acids. With some
of these the effect is temporary; oth
ers leave permanent scars.
Humiliation of the freshmen is so
popular. Favorite methods are to
make them wear outlandish clothes,
to perform insane acts in public, or
to submit to a public paddling.
"Wiggle like a worm!" some full
grown upperclassman will tell a
freshman, and the freshman must
wiggle like a worm for the edifica
tion f his future "brother." Some
of this hazing is rather harmless,
such as a debate on the subject "Why
is an egg?" but in some cases the
freshman is so humiliated that he
does not recover his self-respect for
months. Except for a peculiar code
that seems to bind them, the fresh
men would probably break their
pledges and tell the upper-classmen
to take their fraternity and get hence
to the warmer regions.
The third chief feature of proba
tion week is that of forcing the
freshmen to go without sleep. This
is accomplished by sending them on
frivolous errands at night or by call
ing them from their bed every half
hour or so during the night to per
form stunts. This, perhaps, is the
most serious feature. Some fresh
men have become seriously ill from
this treatment Practically all of
them are unable to keep up their
work in school. They are forced to
go to their classes, but if they do
they are given no time for prepara
tion, and, due to lack of sleep, they
are in such a daze that they are
either actually or mentally asleep in
the classroom.
All this may be amazing to the up-
perclassmen, and it may seem mild
ly amusing to the freshmen once they
are through it, but it is such an idi
otic proceeding and it has such po
their attention on the finance drives
not be tolerated. Students who have
reached the age where they enter col
lege should have outgrown such chil
dishness, which would be more ap
propriate in high school students. It
is rather disgusting to see a junior or
senior who is not far from twenty-
five indulging in sucfi "kid stuff."
Tha purpose, we are informed, is
merely to allow the women to form
qualntancs.
This Is an excellent thing, although
the srroun is too largo to allow any
girl to remember very many of the
others attending. But is is undoubt
edly much more practical than such
affairs as the Cornhusker luncheon,
where, a girl stated, "all you do is to
blow a horn." At this affair about
500 eirls attended, far too large a
group to allow anyone to make ac-
fuaintances.
More affairs such as that next Sat
urday would be valuable. They
mis-ht promote that democracy of
which we talk so much but practice
so little.
