At Indiana University a few days f f
atro the faculty votd in favor of a
ono-cUy extension of the 1923 Christ
mas vacation from January 2nd to
January Srd. By a practically unani
mous vote, the faculty of the Indiana
school, after hut a throe-minute dis
cussion, granted the extra day of x-a-cation
to the students.
The action was the result of a gen
eral student sentiment which com
plained of the University calendar,
by which students wot:ld fmd it nec
essary to travel all or rart of New
Yearns Pay in ordeT to reach the
University for the resumption of
work. Students at Nebraska are com-1
plaining of a siimlar situation, which
requires them to leave home early
on New Year's Day .in order to he
at their -classes Wednesday morning.
Two years ago at Nebraska, stn
dents voted to cut down the Thanks
giving vacation and increase the
length of the Christmas recess. One
of the arguments in favor of the
longer Christmas vacation was that it
would afford University students liv
ing a long way from Lincoln a real
opportunity to eelehrate the holi
days. For this reason students liv
ing a great distance from Lincoln
voted practically unanimously in
favor of the longer Christmas vaca
tion. But what opportunity will these
students have to properly observe the
holidays, if they are -compelled to
start hack to Lincoln on New Year's
Eve? Hiding all New Ycat's Day on
a train certainly is not much of an
observance of this great holiday?
Again, the c;uestion of how much
will be accomplished in classes the
day after New Year's bobs up. How
can the student, tired out from a
New Year's Eve celebration and fa
tigued by the long train ride be ex
pected to get anything worth wh-Pe
out of his classes on Wednesday?
ntivt ibree seasons, Nebraska will
be handicapped this year by the loss
of a large number of letter men, hut
this loss is more than offset by the
new traek in the stadium. Comhusker
men are urged to report at once foT
track, the international sport, fcariy
trainintr and large numbers of men
out are important factorj in Ne
braska's success on the cinder pain.
