Why not a summer school Spanish
club? Are the Latins to be outdone
by the followers of the Kaiser? Ye
Don Quixotes, show your metal.
In this issue are begun two series
of feature articles by which The Ne
braskan hopes to make the summer
students better acquainted with the
university. The Who's Who series
will include Nebraska faculty men of
the summer session who have won
special recognition in educational cir
cles. By a series of articles on the
new university, we shall try. to give
some idea of the greatness of the Ne
braska that is to be.
To those who love Nebraska, the
laying of the corner stone for the
Chemistry hall yesterday, brings a
thrill of pride in the anticipation of
the university of the future. Even
now, though we deplore the haphaz
ard and crowded arrangement of our
biuldings, the university campus of
fers a beautiful contrast to its mis
cellaneously unattractive environ
ment. With the symmetrical arrange
ment of the new buildings, the new
university will be what the farm cam
pus already is, the beauty spot of Lin
coln. We cannot but wish that we might
postpone our university course until
ten years in the future, that we
might enjoy the splendid facilities of
the new university plant. But though
we cannot do that, we can, as sum
mer students, catch the vision of our
school's greatness and transfer that
vision to thousands of high school
students over the Btate, persuading
them to take advantage of the uni
versity to be.
