WELCOME TO KAPPA DELTA.
This week end will be formally installed the VI chapter of Kappa
Pc'.ta, the fourteenth national Tan-Hellenic women's fraternity at Ne
braska University. The national organization is very well founded
md well thought of. and the local chapter promises to become an in
fluential and enthusiastic group in campus affairs. A new fraternity
does not alvays have the smoothest road to travel at first, but with
he rapid openings at Nebraska for new ideas in every phase of col
lege interests, discouragement will not come quickly to Kappa Delta
or any other similar organization which may be established in the
near future. We extend our congratulations and best wishes to this
new Nebraska fraternity.
In welcoming Kappa Delta to the innercircle. the Inter-Fraternity
Ccuncil has laken another step to better fraternity and non fraternity
-onditions on this campus. At times, the feeling for and against such
organizations is rife, and the establishment of more national or local
chapters should relieve that tension somewhat for the present. It
may be hoped that the incoming of this fraternity will encourage
other non-fraternity men and girls to follow the same path.
AN UNUSUAL OPPORTUNITY.
In presenting the Devereux Players to the student public lure, the
dramatic department has opened a door to fine drama. In the effort
to prepetuate the fine art of the spoken drama at Nebraska, the plays
are being offered as examples of the best of their kind. The three
plays themselves are gems of beauty of line and stage strategy, and
best of all are the actors. They are talented, refined, extremely in
telligent and well fitted for the parts which they portray.
This is cne more chance for you to have the best at the lowest
rot. What one puis into life is exactly what one gets out of that
mystic existence, and lessons of beauty and education make lasting
memories which reap future pleasures.
THE VOICE OF THE STUDENTS.
That some universities have a growing conviction that students
know in a large measure what is good for them and can be tnisied 10
rule themselves is evidenced in the news that Columbia University
has adopted a system of student committees representing various
ourses. and that these committees confer with the instructors of
heir courses regarding faults in methods, faults in material, ways of
holding the student interest, and other things of import both to the
instructor and the student.
It i interesting to note that at Columbia, the home of the new
plan, student self-got emment has been in force for a number of years
?n has proved successful. An elected group of seven students prac
lically controls unergraduate activities and does it well. And no one
has the hardihood to deny that Columbia is in the very first rank of
universities in the point of scholastic attainments.
Here, then, is a strong argument for more student participation in
the affairs of Illinois and other universities. To deny the under
graduate any voice in matters which interest him acutely is to deny
:hat he has ny antellignce worthy of the name, any ideas that would
not be harmful to the University, any ambition other than to circum
vent the authorities who are trying to educate him. willy-nilly.
If the fatuity displayed a recepti e mood toward jstudent sugges
tions regarC'ng the way courses should be conducted It would do a
great deal toward promoting student interest in the courses them
selves. No professor is so old that he cannot learn anything Irom
those who sit under him. A committee composed of one member
elected from each of the Economics 1 sections would undoubtedly
jive some new pointers on the way economic classes should be con
ducted; the English faculty would be very much surprised and to a
great extent benefitted by receiving an official committee culled from
the various English courses offered on the campus.
When the next movement looking toward an increase in student
elf-rule is started on the campus what better pledge of sincerity and
hign-mindedness can be offered to the University executives tiian to
ask first for & little participation in the conducting of the various
courses and the right to tell our professors why their students are not
inerested in their courses. Daily mini.
