THE POOR FRESHMAN
The New Student publishes an -article
by C Ralph Bennett denouncing
the present method of treating the
freshmen in the large colleges of
the country. As a teacher of fresh
men in his college, Mr. Bennett has
a sympathy and understanding of the
average first-year student that is not
rivaled by many. Instead of the
usual picture of the young country
lad who comes to college to become
the victim of the pranks and jeers
of the upperclassmen, the freshmen
of today are just average human
beings, full of energy and enthusiasm
for the life in store for them.
"Freshmen are beginners," con
tinued Mr. Bennett "They are tak
ing their first step alone. They
haven't yet learned that step. They
have been accustomed to high schools
and prep schools and their methods

these youngsters. They need to be
helped. They need to be encourag
ed." The article continues that the very
thing that tends to discourage the
freshmen is done in most of the col
leffes. Instead of assigning the best
instructors to the first year students
so that they may have the counsel of
a man experienced in the institution,
one who would make the course in
teresting and at the same time im
part something of practical value to
the class, the youngest teachers are
usually assigned to the yearling
classes. In a good many cases the
instructor is striving for an advinced
degree, so that he will not have to
stay in the ranks of the freshman
instructor, but may advance to the
ranks of the instructor of upperclass
men. As a consequence his class is
merely a fulfillment of duty, a spend
ing of the allotted hours in the class
room. It is not strange that the
class soon assumes the same aspect

Upon him to a large degree depends

professor of chemistry and chemist
of the agricultural experiment sta
tion from 1899 to 1901.
With the exception of the years he
was connected with the University
of Idaho, Dr. Avery has been a mem
ber of the University of Nebraska
faculty since 1896, when he was
made adjunct professor of chemistry,
a position he held until 1899. In
1901, he was appointed professor of
nnalvtical and organic chemistry in
the university, and in 1902 he was
made professor of agricultural chem
istry and chemist of the University
of Nebraska experiment station.
From 1905 to 1908, he was head
professor of chemistry in the univer
sity. In the latter year he was ap
pointed acting chancellor of the uni
versity, upon the resignation of E.
Benjamin Andrews. He was acting
chancellor until May 20, 1909, when
he was appointed to the position of
chancellor.
During the world war, Chancellor
Avery was connected with the United

It takes the genius of the faculty
to take the freshman in hand and get
the results from him that can be ob
tained. The normal freshman is ap
palled by the college, he regards his
instructor as some kind of a super
human who is totally unapproachable
by any le than a fellow-great. This
impression is heightened by the aver
age young instructor who is trying to
create an aura of majesty about him.

to appear dignified and a stern
fount of wisdom, he appears so to
the first-year youngsters when he
is trviiur to he affable or humorous.
In his sterner moments he is a fiery
