Dr. Fish believes that this tendency is present in all eastern colleges and universities. loung men and women see too nary traditional demonstrations in high schools today," bs con tinued. "They bacome blase. It seems beneath their dignity to par ticipate in such affairs at college." Dr. Fish believes, however, that school spirit and traditions are a valuable part of college life. He regrets the present tendency, hop ing that students will come lo real ize the importance of traditions nd institutional loyalty as they wve in the past. A Popular Instructor. Wisconsin has a strong student friend, a loyal contributor to uni versity activities and a vitally in vested faculty member in Dr. Fish. His popularity, both among students and instructors, is recog nized by Wisconsinites. His pleas mg personality, scholarly mind natural friendliness make him powerful force on the Wisconsin campus. Well acquainted with existing conditions at his own university, Dr. Fish advancea the belief that traternities are becoming too com mercial. "I believe educational institu tions should limit the expenditures "f fraternities for new homes. It ma that each fraternity tries to wtdo the other tn the construction nouses.
