STORY HARDING
For Th's Issue
ARE YOU REALLY EFFICIENT?
Did you ever buy your ticket, auk the ticket. agent very carefully
just when the train went, leave for a few minutes on business and
return to see the train steaming away for your destination with you
left, behind? Then on Investigation, you find that the agent was
thinking of his former questioner when lie gave you your train time.
At such times you wish that all the careless, inefficient people
could be quickly exterminated or that universal training in that art
would be required of every one. It is exactness in the little things
that count in a crisis. Many persons are capable of organizing and
putting over the general plans of some bis thing, but someone else
must look out for the holes in the wall. It is the ordinary stenog
rapher whose machine breaks down in a crucial moment; the usual
housewife whose meal burns when company is expected; the medium
student who leaves his theme until the last minute and then is taken
sick so that he cannot finish it.
But the truly ellicient worker has at hand another typewriter,
more materials for a new dinner or a well established background of
good work so that this late theme may be an exception. Work from
such a man may be depended on and if he undertakes a project, it
will be done. University is a good place to begin efficiency training
if that is not one of your strong points, for here many mistakes will
be pardoned that in the business world would mean dismissal. You
will be expected to pass muster when you graduate into adult con
ditions and late regrets are useless. It is well to learn to be even
more particular about the other man's business than your own, and
above all to say what you mean or do not say it.
ARE WE BEING FAIR?
This question was flung at us during an argument on student
democracy, and referred especially to the distribution of class offices
and committees. The speaker made the statement that one of his
acquaintances held, this past semester, appointments on five different
committees in the one class alone. In addition, he was interested in
several other activities. This seems hardly just to the other mem
bers of the class when there are probably at least twelve hundred
enrolled in that division. While committee appointments in them
selves mean very little in any way, yet, they are a sign of recognition
of merit.
The great plea on our campus has been to interest more students
in more activities so that the general school spirit will rise. To help
in this effort, the W. S. G. A. has presented the point system which
would give more girls opportunities to enter school activities. To
have practically the same persons acting in many capacities is hitting
straight at the heart of campus democracy. Campus autocracy must
eventually destroy all the real Nebraska co-operation and spirit of
which we are so proud let's give the other fellow a chance too.
"PUT UP OR SHUT UP."
"Professor X gave me a D in his course, although I got B plus in
exam, and good grades In the other tests. I think he's about the
crookedest mortal who ever taught a class in Morningside."
"Did you see him about it?"
"No. What's the use. He always has had it in for me."
Did you ever hear such a conversation? The writer has heard
such frequently from more than one pair of students concerning
more than one professor.
Obviously such remarks are unfair both to the student concerned
and the professor concerned. If a student loses confidence In the
fair-mindedness of a professor he loses much of the incentive for good
work in that professor's class. Such talk, moreover, may unjustly
prejudice others against the professor.
If a student has a real grievance, it is his duty either to go to
the professor in question and find out what is wrong, or else forever
hold his peace. Nobody tolerates the pest who makes a practice of
continually worrying profs. In hope of raising his grade one letter,
but what is here discussed is a different matter. A real grievance
should be cleared up. After the professor sees his error, if there be
one, and then refuses to rectify it, an excuse to "crab" may come.
Until then, using a phrase as apt as it is unrefined, let's "put up
or shut up." Collegian Reporter.
