THE UNIVERSITY'S AIM
"We propose to train every man
and women to expert service. To that
end we shall have as many broad and
practical professional courses as the
commonwealth needs. We propose to
protect these men from the dangers of
highly specialized service by giving
them a broad cultural training, one
which will moralize their outlook,
point their responsibilities, make them
flexible rather than mechanical in
workmanship, give them that Imag
ination, sympathy and tolerance which
are requisite to working with, under
and above men.
"Where tradition serves our ends,
we shall abide by tradition; where it
falls short of function; we shall
change it. Our one object Is to make
the university virile to make It a
forceful and dependable Instrument in
the efficient and democratic America
which is coming. The obligation re
quires leadership. I grant my part.
It also requires co-operation. I ask
that part of you that are here. A
great university is always the product
of great loyalties. Every human fac
tor must do its part with devotion,
The public must sustain its freedom
and support its efficiency. The regents
must translate our social need into its
educational plan. The faculty must
teach with the courage and the cau
tion of science. The students must be
eager to attain the higher strength of
its wise disciplines. The alumni must
render that affectionate reverence
which gives constructiveness and
weight to college traditions. Togeth-
jer we are a university, apart we are
Ian intellectual scrap heap. United in
purpose, we build agains the need of
centuries; separated in aim, we drift
along the current of tradition and
transient passion." From the inaug
ural address of Dr. Henry Suzzallo,
president of the University of Wash
ington. Compulsory Union Membership
The discussion Harvard men have
been pursuing concerning the advisa
bility of making, membership in the
Harvard union compulosry might
bring up a similar question at Illinois.
The plan of having dues to the union
paid with registration fees by every
man in the institution is quite
similar to the blanket utilized in
some institutions for the support of
athletics. Several advantages are re
alized from the certain revenue ac
quired in that manner, and to be sure,
such an organization as a union of
students needs regular support. At
Illinois such a system might prove
much easier and more certain as a
means of support for the undergrad
uate men's organization. Without a
building or any tangible benefit avail
able it is difficult to induce undergrad
uates to Join the union, although the
fee be trifling; and the organization
cannot serve its true purpose without
a representative membership.
On the other hand, required mem
bership would remove from the union
a great deal of the element of person
al interest to encourage which the
body was formed. . An organization
with definite support loses Its hold
over the students, because it falls into
the class with university supported in
stitutions. It. seems as though the
thing will prosper without undergrad
uate effort, and that effort is, hence,
not forthcoming. To be sure, interest
is Black enough in the union as it is,
but that Is no reason for condemning
the present system. Give the union a
permanent home, which it probably
will have when the plans recently
formulated for students and alumni
are carried out, and interest will be
sufficient to insure support by volun
tary membership. At any Tate, it
would not be advisable to ruin the
union as a democratic institution by
making membership compulsory.
BE A COLLEGE MAN
College culture has commonly been
considered by commentators, upon im
perfect and inconclusive evidence, to
be emphatically inconsequential. Ac
cordingly they have incorrectly con
cluded that contributors to campus
publications aro Incapable of accord
ing attention to questions of consid
erable importance outside of college.
It is not that contributors to campus
publications are incapable; it is that
they accept the doctrine that a man
attending college should be a college
man, and should be interested in con
sequence primarily, though not ex
clusively, in extra curriculum activi
ties, in college experience, and in the
knowledge to be acquired in college.
That is, that a Columbia student, for
example, should be a Columbia man,
and not merely a student attending
classes at Columbia.
College culture is not inconsequen
tial to a college man. Be a college
man. '
Contributors to campus publications
should be concerned with college'
composition, college activities and
college problems. If you contribute,
be a contributing college man.
Subjects and questions of consider
able concern outside of college are
of much consequence to the college
man, he should never neglect college
knowledge and college experience;
and forget to be a college man. Co

DEBATE SINGLE TAX
AT CONVOCATION
(Continued from page 1)
to be applied to The Nebraskan alone.
Does Not Violate Liberty
Mr. Jacobsen denied in rebuttal
that the tax was a violation of "lib
erty and the pursuit of happiness,"
unless such taxes as park mainte
nance funds and library fees were
considered so. "In the taxation for
park maintenance, we have a univer
sal tax for amusement alone, which
you are compelled to pay and which
you do not necessarily enjoy," he
declared. Ho took a different point of
view in looking at the present condi
tion of student activities.
"Under my opponent's classifica
tion," he said, "athletics make out.
But football pays all the bills. Is
that sound business? Suppose you
owned a store comprising nine depart
ments. Two or three of these pay
good money, but the rest are contin
ually a losing' proposition. Would
you figure that conditions were
Just right because you happened to
clear enough from the few depart
ments to make up the deficits of the
others? No. You would try to bring
all the departments up to a paying
basis." The Single Tax, he said, was
a measure which proposes to provide
for the maintenance of every depart
ment in proportion to the financial
support it needs, and assure it the
student support it deserves.
