If University of NclraU studrnts an- un
able to compete with student, who have come
her from other chooli, then we huppom- the
present eligibility rule U neeewiry for thiso
milk-fed proiliRiei. Why not keep the foreign
nrnHnrti out of the university entirely n
dedicate our educational resources solely to the
hoTi and girls who have apent all of their tunc
at Nebraska. Thin would be almost a logical.
Dean T. J. Thompson defend the eligibility
law which requires any student, no matter
what his standing may be. to steer dear of
extracurricular activities until he has twenty
even hours in the University of Nebraska.
''In the first place," contends the dean,
"professionalism is invited when there is no
rule prohibiting students from other places
from taking part in activities their first yesr
here. There are many students who would
come here only to participate in aome form of
activity."
Thia is the first of three reasons advanced by
Dean Thompson for the continuation of the
present ruling.
Does it seem logical that a student would
leave aome other university simply lo become
an activity man at Nebraska? If he were
talented, capable, worthy, he Mould become a
prominent man in his own school. Why should
he change to Nebraska simply to take a crack
at the activity target!
We do not believe that elimination of the
present wire fence protection would cause an
overwhelming influx of activity men from
other schools.
"Such a student," continues the dean, re
ferring to the campus wonder from another
school, "might have more ability, through pre
vious experience, than a regular student at
Nebraska and would 'knock' the regular stu
dent who is on the ground floor here out of
something for which he has been working
several years. It is not fair to the one on the
'ground floor who has spent his entire college
life here and worked for some specific thing
acveral years."
Well, it seems that the eligibility rule is a
guardian for the local lad who is not suffi
ciently adept or experienced to compete with
men from other colleges. This is rather silly.
In the first place, freshmen in the univer
sity are barred from actual participation in
activities, though they may toil without recog
nition as much as they like. So, by the time
they enter the competitive field, they may
have had one year of experience. It would
take the newcomer some time to learn the
extracurricular ropes at Nebraska. Hence, the
local boy would not be at a distinct dis
advantage. It would not be uncharitable, unkind or un
fair for him to compete with a collegiate
immigrant.
Dean Thompson goes on to explain that a
student needs one year to acquaint himself
with Nebraska and to "appreciate" what the
school really is. If this time is necessary, then
the new arrival would not be such a bugaboo
to those who are already working in activities.
Freshman existence is more or less the same at
any university; to assume that one must take
a full year to become accustomed to another
university is to question his intelligence.
The theme song of Dean Thompson's opinion
seems to be that full-fledged Nebraskans de
serve all of the breaks. Since he mentions
publications, we ask if they do not deserve
some consideration. When a university daily
or annual is forced to select its staffs from
inferior material because university require
ments rope off those who are qualified but
have not been through the twenty-scven-hour-purifying-cauldron,
then the institution may
expect some inferior publications.
The Nebraskan is convinced that the eligi-

Common Sense Rules.
TO THE EDITOR :
You have done quile well, for a college edi
tor, to abandon support of "The Great Cause
of the smoking coeds, who do not seem par
ticularly concerned about their fate anyhow,
and blast forth with a constructive criticism
of our silly eligibility rules.
In the first place, the rules themselves: De
cidedly, they are far from sensible insofar as
they prohibit outsiders from active participa
tion in extracurricular work. For such work
is an education within itself. It is one of the
phases of a well rounded college education, and
certainly should not be denied to students
merely because they enter Nebraska ns juniors
or seniors. It we are not to open all that Ihe
university has to offer to such students, why
do we allow them to enter the school at nil.
Surely, if their competition in activities is
undesirable, likewise they must deprive many
a "local" student of opportunities at scholar
ships, high grades, etc. Common sense dictates
that we either give them both fields or neit her.
In the second place, the application of the
rules: Is it at all sensible, for example, to de
mand that a coed must have completed twenty
seven hours the previous year, before she may
stand beside a cadet captain and watch his
company inarch by in review" Is this an
"activity?" Space prevents listing every "ac
tivity" which falls under the all-inclusive eligi
bility rules, but they are many too many!
Yes, dear editor, you have our support. May
the rule against these "dirty outsiders" be
forever erased from the books, and may com
mon sense have at least a tiny part in the
decision as to what is or is not a real activity!
