"The University of Nebras
ka does not belong to the
Board of Regents.
"It does not belong to the
faculty.
"It does not belong to the
student body.
"It does not even belong to
the Legislature.
This University belongs to
B of Nebraska."
With these irordi Dr. Ben
Greenberg, past president of
the Board of Regents,
summed up Ms function as a
Regent to keep the Univer
sity for all of Nebraska.
Greenberg made these com
ments in an address to the
Nebraska American Associa
tion of University Professors,
which was printed in the lat
est, issue of the NEBRASKA
ALUMNUS.
In Us speech, Plftks Vei

Board ef Regents in the Uni
versity el Nebraska.
"Our Nebraska constitu
tion," he said, "says that the
government of the University,
under the direction of the Leg
islature, is vested in the Board
of Regents, and that our spe
cific powers and duties are to
be fixed by statute.
. . By judicial decision
we have also been found to
be not an independent corp
orate body but, rather, an
agent of the state."
... A faculty member sav
ing that a Board should dele
gate its authority, expecially
in matters of educational pol
icy. . . . And, finally, a univer
sity president saying, 'Sit on
the throne but sit quietly un
less there is a rhubarb then
settle it"
"Some people," Greenberg
said, "are afraid that the leg
islative body's budget direc
tives have gone beyond the
bounds of propriety and have
invaded the province of the
Board and the administrative
officers of the University."
He commented that a sys
tem whereby the University
would work under a flurry of
direct orders from the Legis
lature would not be comput
able with our Nebraska Con
stitution or statutes.
"When I look at the record
I the Immediate past, hew
ever, I am not convinced that
the Legislature of Nebraska
has any intention whatever
of assuming direct control of
the University," said Dr.
Greenberg. "It is true that the
record contains incidents that
I wish it did not contain, but
they have not been the result
of formal action by the Legis
lature as a whole."
fairs is a pastime 'that legis
lative bodies will pursue for
long, if they pursue it at all.
"When the cloak of institu
tional management is gath
ered tightly about a legislative
body, that body not only gets
the cloak, it also gets the di
rect responsibility for what
happens to the university," he
stressed.
Therefore, he believes that
university governing boards
will not become obsolete for a
long time.

our toleration of the nihil
ists and the Communists
can only be just that toler
ation. That it must never
amount to a kind of doc
trinal egalitarianism which
ends us up with the
strangled cry of our age:
How can we really, truly,
definitively, know, that they
may not in fact be right,
and we wrong?
What the University of
Texas needs, and for that
matter just about every col
lege in the land, is spiritual
composure. And that can
be done when we make the
fundamental distinct ion
that recaptures the g r e a t
insight of our forebears.
That while we of the West
are flawed, our ideals are
not; and that the great
problem of our time, both
intellectual and moral, is
to bring us, in the West, to
adhere more closely to our
ideals, to doubt ourselves
but not our ideals. It is
curious that many people
who -ore shocked at the
proposal that Earl Warren
should be impeached are
utterly undisturbed by the
proposal, advanced by so
many members of the aca
demic community, that we
should impeach our ideals.

A DACRON'COTTON OXFORD
THAT WILL NOT PILL!
OH, given time a short-necked man with a heavy beard could pill any oxford
cloth, they're that soft. But until just recently even Little Lord Fauntleroy
could have pilled a DACRONcotton oxford cloth shirt with one curl tied behind
him. Which is why we didn't put out any of them. Sure you know what pilled
"means; It's when the fabric gets roughed up into little pills. Well, Du Pont has
a brand new type Dacron that resists pilling. It came out about a year ago, but
we waited until Greenwood Mills, the weavers who make our cotton oxfords
produced a DACRONcottori oxford they were proud of; a really luxuriant lofted
oxford. And that brings us up to now. We are making Eagle Shirts of this new
material in both a Tabsnap-collar and a button-down collar. At about S8.50.

Tabsnaps, you may recall, are Eagle tab collars that need no collar buttons.
Our button-down collars also have a property highly prized by the toney
cognoscenti: a sort of sloppy bulge. We used to call this "flare" until we noticed
everybody else was too. Besides, it really isn't a flare, it's a sloppy bulge, but it's
ours and we like it. So if you want a drip-dry oxford shirt that won't pill
perhaps you'd better drop a note to Miss Afflerbach (she says forget the footnote)
and ask her where in your town you can find Eagle Shirts. This is because many
fine stores prefer to put their own labels in our shirts; very flattering, but tough
on Eagle eyed shoppers. Write her care of Eagle Shirtmakers, Quakertown, Pa.
