Traditions on Wisconsin Campus
Are Declining; No Longer Have
Student Government, Says Fish
Traditions on thr. University of Wisconsin campus are dc
uliniii" in recognized importance, explained Dr. Carl Kiissell
Fish, professor of history at Wisconsin, in an interview with
The Daily Xebraskan Saturday nioruinp. 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
