MEN COMING INTO THEIR OWN.
Coeds at Nebraska have aiv.aj
mailed when the subject of Piu ttU
Kappa honors are diacu&sed. U hue
been, vwm ilium, a sniiie of sut'Siac
tion a smile that they knew the
bad earued. Tin be Cornhusker giris
stuilod because tliey knew that near
ly every P. B. K. pin was pinned on
a member of their sex.
These figures will speak for them
selves: In 1S18 but four men wcie
chosen members of Phi Beta Kappa;
in lyiu only seven men out ot' a total
of thirij-ume new members were of
the male sex; and iu 1920, thret
fourths of the members wer eco-eds
University men were represente:
with th eratio 11:44.
When the lyiil Phi Beta Kappa
keys were tendered to fifty-ihree
members of the Senior class, twenty
of these were given to University
men. This year nearly 38 per ceat
ol those ,ho will receive the key are
members of the male sex. Uuiversil'
of Nebraska men are coming into
their own.
When college days are over it is u.
to tne luea w ho are graduated to
whittle lue rough path dovu to a
smooth ruad, that they may progre"
along ilns highway In the high pow
eietl luu.ur tur of success. For tb.s
reason men need to linish collide
with at least as much stored ur
knowledge as women. A Phi Beta
Kappa pin may not mean that its rt
dpient ia a human encyclopedia, hut
it does mean that the honor ha3 be a
bestowed upon one who has not
hired during his University rareer
Editor, Tho Dully Nebriiskan:
The recent election to Phi Bota
Kappa of 53 members touatltutluf,
oiio-aoveutu of the beuiors eligible for
election, is an event that calls lcr
some comment. In wlntt follows 1
want it to bo understood that 1 have
in mind simply the interest of the or
ganizatioii of which 1 am a member
and that nothing contained herein ia
to be taken us a criticism of the
committee or of the member", who'
have been receully elected.
Kery thinking person will agree
..nut it' any honor is to mean much
it must be given sparingly, A genera,
difubsion of honors oi any sort uihkcs
litem unimportant and doleats the,
purpose lor which they were given,
ihe Victoria Cross and the Congres
sional Medal of Honor mean much
ueeause they have boeu given to but
lew. A general bestowal of thos
oilers would have cheapened them.'
'1 he same is true of the honor that
eomes to one in the suape of elec
tion of Phi Beta Kappa, if this honor
.s to be prized, it it is to mean much,
if it is not to become loo common,
.t must be given to comparative!
iew. Certainly here it is Riven io
uae student in fifteen it means much
more than where it is given to one
student in ten and very much men;
tiiau where it is given to one studeu.
lit seven.
Certainly all of us who are intc
ested in the University of Nebraska
and in Phi Beta Kappa want the Ley
that comes from tnis University tr
mean as much as the key that corner
rem other colleges where they have
a chapter. We do not want our grau
uates who are members of Phi Beta
Kappa to feel that the honor which
comes to them in the shape oC elec
tion to the organization is less im
portant because more of them lwvc
been elected to it. Let us see to it
that the key of Nebraska means as
much us the key from Illinois, Wis
consin or Harvard.
As the first step In bringing this
iroul I would suggest that the com
iniitee write to the other chipteiV
in the country to see what proportion
of those eligible to Phi Beta Kappa
are elected. When this materia) Ik.s
been secured they can then proceed
to achieve the desired result.
