LOOKING AHEAD.
The announcement of mid-semester examinations yesterday was
something of a shock to many students, and the general feeling
seemed to be that the term had hardly started. In fact, some of the
class-rolls are not even yet complete and consequently students have
been resting on their oars. The impression on seniors was especially
noticeable for they realized suddenly that college days were almost
over and the home-folks and the world in general were expecting
them to come out well fitted to take over mature responsibility.
The average man in industrial work is looking to the college
giaduate for his leaders since they are supposedly trained in initia
tive, handling of men. public speaking or civic problems, and he is
anxious to get these men, or women, as the case may be, for his
executives. But contrary to expectations, many of these men do not
seem to fit in. They either have taken too general a course in uni
versity, or they fail to grasp the change in policy of the two institu
tions college and the modern business concern. The industrial men
often complain that their university trained employees are not willing
to start at the bottom to learn the business rationally; they must
have a position with a high-sounding name where they can feel just
a little superior to ihe untrained men. They take it for granted that
they are capable of stepping into a prominent place in a firm whether
they have had actual technical work or not. So it is of interest to
the man or woman graduating in June to be thinking of future plans.
There will be plenty of opportunities for everyone and the business
world will welcome you gladly. But begin now to get the proper
attitude toward this new work, for you must go there as something
of an amateur and you go recommended by your Alma Mater. Be
prepared to show industry that a university education does not
merely produce a lot of polished snobs, but real men and women
whose desire is to enter into their life's duties with the benefit of all
people at heart, to help to better conditions in this old world in a
truly practical, effective way.
SPRING FEVER.
March certainly entered like a lamb and the epidemic of spring
fever spread rapidly. For the sake of our scholarship, we hope that
it will go out like a lion, for we don't feel academically inspired just
now.
WANTED TRAFFIC COPS.
The steps and main halls of University Hall are becoming a
regular gossip-center. Everyone going in the building stops to speak
to his friends going out, and vice versa. Groups of girls and men
gather at the foot of the steps to settle the day's engagements and
stop the "Rag" line to find out the next lession. As a result, it is
like boarding a subway to get through the crowd. The people be
hind push forward, and those ahead push backward and it is a prob
lem to get to class on time. There must be a few rules to control
this situation, for time, patience and energy are sadly wasted in the
futile attempts. We suggest that some organization take over the
problem and volunteer to act as traffic managers during certain hours
until the students begin to realize the situation. A very reasonable
system could easily be put into operation so that normal conditions
might be regained there. At least, it is up to the student body to
think on the matter and try to do his part. Move on!
WHAT DREAMS ARE MADE OF.
Maeterlinck has said that a man's dreams are made of the stuff
that is nearest kin to himself. As a man dreams and plans his
future, so is his life and relations with other men built tip around
the fabric of his ambitions and his work. The men who rule the
universe, those who obtain the greatest enjoyment from their living,
are the ones who are not content with stolidly plodding along day
after day content with the existing order of things and their own lot;
without lifting their vision to the horizon of endeavor beyond the
boundary of the commonplace living never triumphs and never forges
ahead of their fellows. Content to tear the burden of the yokels and
to enjoy his lot, the man who has never dared to conceive of the
realms of power, and wealth and happiness which can be had by the
men who determine that they must secure them, be has forfeited his
right to bis share of the big life that moves the destinies of the
world. Purdue Exponent
