Under the head "Students Oppose

from Visitor who Cites Wisconsin
Pract'ce" there appeared in the news
columns of one of the city dailies
Wednesday a highly colored account,
STUDENT OPINION.
The student opinion column of The
Daily Nebraskan has often been
made use of by persons who wish to
"orate," but who would investigate
more thoroughly that of which they
complain before they wrote about it
if they were called upon to take any
responsibility for their statements.
The Daily Nebraskan believes that
the column will be made more fool
proof and its contents more sincere
if contributors' letters are published
only over their names. In the future,
accordingly, letters will be published
over names, after reasonable proof
that they are correctly signed.

Lawes "shows from the records in

The editorial then proceeds to
crime and education, wnereas it
should have launched a virile, mer

who broadcast unsolicited statistics
to the public about the number of
college graduates in prison.
The fact that proper education, col
lege or otherwise, counteracts crime,
has been proved a thousand and one
times in the last thousand and one
years. Mo one disputes it out tne
greedy sensationalist who pries into
the lives of college men and women,
seeking material for his vicious pro
paganda.
Fortunately, the tide is turning
against the sensationalist who preys
upon the. campus. The universities
and colleges are pushing forward in
their vital work in spite of him. The

Ten Years Ago
Six of the last years regulars were
out for basketball practice. No
games were scheduled until after
the Christmas vacation but the men
were working two hours a day. The
ambition of Captain Hawkins was to
lead his team in victory over the
Wesleyan Coyotes, the acknowledg
ed champions of the Missouri Valley
and the only team that had defeat
ed the Cornhuskers the year before.
In the three games played between
the two teams, Nebraska had won
two.

"Give me a log with Mark Hopkins at one end
Ca it and myself at the other," said, in effect.
President Garfield, "and I would not want a
better college.
But if Mark Hopkins was an inspired teacher, it
is just as true that James A. Garfield was an inspir
ing student.
Sometimes Garfield's praise of his professor is
quoted in disparagement of present day faculties
the assumption being that we as listeners are
sympathetic, all that we ought to be and that
it is the teacher who has lost his vision.
Is this often the case?
It is the recollection of one graduate at least
that he did not give his professors a chance. Cold to
their enthusiasms, he was prone to regard those
men more in the light of animated text-books
than as human beings able and eager to expound
their art or to go beyond it into the realm of his
own personal problems.
This is a man to man proposition. Each has to go
halfway. Remember, there are two ends to the log.
