The New
Dormitory.
tiio H..H- irii-l's ilormiiorv nears eoniplc-
tion the administration is rapidly making final
arrangements for the conduct of the living hall,
announcements from the chancellor's offices
stated recently. At the same time sororities
arc wondering just what influence this dormi
tory will have upon their finances.
An announcement Saturday set the cost at
l0 per semester per girl for room and $26
a month for hoard for 20 meals a week. This
cost is an estimate and is not yet definitely
fixed. The office is now open for reservations
and girls now enrolled in the university can
reserve places in the dormitory, tiirls who
come to Nebraska for the first lime next year
will not he able to reserve rooms until after
the 'nd of this term.
This price is lower than auy sorority can
compete with. The cost will run at about $40
h month and almost all of the sororities are
higher than this as a result of chapter dues
and social assessments. Most sorority leaders
have already signified that 1 hoy did not be
lieve the dormitory would have a great deal
of influence upon their rolls next year as girls
who decided to pledge would undoubtedly do
so regardless of the dormitory.
it was not to compete with sororities in the
first place that the dormitory was built. It
was built to provide good living places for
out-of-town university girls. This has always
been somewhat of a problem to the dean of
women's office and it is a matter of common
kuowledge that some of the houses which were
previously named for unaffiliated girls to re
side in were not good places to live. The dor
mitory was built to provide a decent place for
many of the unaffiliated girls to live. In com
petition with sororities it will probably not be
a large iacior.
Socially, tlx; dormitory will have many in
fluences." It will enable these non-f! recks who
previously have bad very few social contacts
to broaden the scope of their friendships. It
will enable them to jrive parties and contribute
their share to ihe social life of the cai pus
which previously they have been unable to do.
It is one of the functions of a college edu
cation to give students a social as well as au
intellectual education. The tfirls who previ
ously lived in small rooms with very few con
tact had small opportunity for au education
of 1 h is type. It was practically impossible for
them to share the social privileges of the cam
pus because of the lack of these contacts. The
new dormitory will provide the necessary
liaison and w'ill give these tfirls opportunity
for social education which is their right.
There is one treat question in the social
aspect of this dormitory. Perhaps to many it
is trivial, hut to tho irirls who will live in the
hall, the question will have great significance.
Will the fraternity men upon the campus date
the girls in the dormitory? The easiest way
of answering this question is by evading it
and declaring that it makes no difference any
way. But sane observation will show that it
dots. Fraternity men have always had an ex
aggerated sense of their own importance and
with characteristic snobbery may refuse to
date the git'- in the dormitory because the
dormitory has no rating. One thing is certain,
the girls in the dormitory will he the same
kind as those in the sororities, and fraternity
men would do well to forget their high hats
and he fair.
Politically, too. the dormitory will have sig
nificance. The hall will house 170 girls and
if they arc properly organi.ed, if the leader
of the" Barb clubs is alert he will not pass up
the chance to put 170 votes in the ballot boxes
for the Barb cause. One hundred seventy votes
gointr solidly for one candidate, or a slate of
candidates can swing almost any election upon
the University of Nebraska campus.
The dormitory will undoubtedly be organ
ized and if it is then it will relieve the admiu
i.stration of a portion of another problem
that of contacts with these unaffiliated girls.
It has always been difficult for the adminis
tration to reach those students when necessary
and it has had no check upon them previously.
That is one of the reasons why the Nebraska
leaders arc so in favor of fraternities and
sororities, because these jjroups provide ways
and means of contacting large numbers of stu
dents. The dormitory will provide another
such group.
.
The dormitory has been named Carrie Belle
Raymond hall in memory of a woman who
spent many years of her life in the sen-ice of
the university. She was director of the uni
versity chorus and later a director of music, for
thf university. She was rssociated here from
1R94 until her death in 1927. Her long years
af service and her profound influence over the
thousands of students with which she came in
contact led the Board of Regents to keep her
name alive in the hall.
The dormitory is Nebraska's answer 1o the
depression. In the face of all of the hard
times, tho dormitory is rising and if it is an
omen of the future it means that, some day the
chancellor's dream of a greater and more beau
tiful university campus may come true.
And there is always the danger when
cribbing that the other guy is wrong, too.
It ho Is
Being Cheated?
The approaching final examinations bring
to mind the examination technique. F.arlier in
the semester The Nebraskan advocated the ac
quisition of a technique for taking examina
tions. It involved a study of professors and
their methods rather than of the courses. It
did not, however, involve the use of crib sheets.
For a number of years the situation has been
a problem on the University of Nebraska.
Cheacrs are constantly with us and the admin
istration is worried about their presence.
This morning, the two senior honoraries, the
Innocents and the Mortar Boards, came out
with a statement indicting the cheaters and
urging students to stay on the level with them
selves. The message follows:
The senior honoraries take a decided
stand against the practice of cheating- in
examintaions. We are thoroughly ac
quainted with the fact that "cribbing-" is
in vogue among- a certain class of stu
dents. Unfortunately this group labors
under the illusion that such action is
clever. As a matter of fact it may be
justly branded as a despicable form of
self advancement at the expense of the in
dividual as well as his associates.
There is much to be said against cheating.
There will even be those w ho will defend it in
the face of the grading system, and they will
not be far wrong. But the method of correct
ing 1he system is not by misusing it. It is well
known that the hardest enemy to fight is the
one within oneself. Cribbing in exams is not
an easy way of weakening that still small
voice.
Students should take prid. in themselves
and not allow themselves 1o be carried away
by the urge of getting a good grade. Honesty
and peace within oneself is worth thousands of
good grades and many a so called scholar has
found that out too late. Students should rec
ognize that cheats, liars, thieves, and cribbcr
are all in the same class, and refrain from
chiseling.

Just one more time.
Juxt
Tough.
It's just tough.
This is the opinion that ten business men in
Lincoln expressed in an interview Saturday
when asked what seniors were going to do
after graduation. Most of them declared the
seniors to be unfortunate. Unfortunate is a
nice, word and the better expression would
seem to be "out-of-luck."
Unemployment is one of the greatest prob
lems which face the world today. There are so
many factors that enter into this. Kvery phil
osopher has a different theory, every politician
knows why it is, every economist can explain
it to the penny, but the most terrific indict
ment was the prophecy of K. A. Ross, Wis
consin sociologist in his "Stand;ng Itoom
Only."
Regardless of why it is, it is. That is all
that graduating .seniors care to know. Many
of them have been searching high and low for
jobs and most of them have been unsuccessful.
All of them are equipped for a certain line of
work only to find that their particular field
is overcrowded. Too many people, not enough
jobs, not enotiuh food.
The outlook is not altogether bright. One
thing is certain. Students should not remain
idle. If they arc unable 1o find work they
should scrape together enough money to come
back to school. The present situation cannot
be blamed to education. If anything can
change it 1 hat thing is education. Graduates
should make an effort to kv'cp busy. Under
graduates, should not drop out at any cist.
The situation is tough but it cannot remain
that v ay forever.

A. E. Wolf, secretary of young
men's work at the Y. M. C. A. and
head of the employment bureau
advises the student to return to
school. "If possible they should
go ahead and specialize in their
particular field. It will help them
and will do much to alleviate the
unemployment situation," he said.
At the present time Mr. Wolf has
found that companies are employ
ing more married men, and laying
off the unmarried ones, and he in
dicated that there were not even
enough Jobs for the married ones.

MORNING MAIL
Appreciation.
TO PROF. R I). SCOTT:
You will be interested, I think, in getting
reactions from persons who witnessed the
Pageant Saturday. Beautiful and impressive
are the words which describe it best. His
torically correct, admirably planned and per
fectly rendered, the performance amply repaid
us for the long trip to Lincoln.
To exalt our dear Nebraska land ami to
enshrine it in the hearts of our young people
is a work to which we can well dedicate our
best efforls. As a representative Nebraskan. I
wish to thajik you and all of your aplendid
helpers for tfcis fine representation of Nebraska
in the making.
Whose thought was it "the planting of the
"Widow Wilson's eorn!" Only a little thing,
but so luminous! The spirit of neighborliness.
so characteristic of early settlers, is a rich
heritage which has eome to us from those far
off days. That we do not neglect it was re
cently exemplified in our response to the need
of people in northern counti".

the "hard knocks' will do them
good and add greatly to their ap
preciation of their job and life it
self." she said in conclusion.
A new light was cast on the
present economic condition by
S. A. Sanderson, vice president of
Rudge and Guenzel company. "We
are better off today than we were
forty years ago." declared Mr.
Sanderson. "Today we are getting
higher wages than we were forty
years ago and commodity prices
are at approximately the same
level that they were then." It is
the advice of Mr. Sanderson to "go
back to the farm" you can al
ways make a good living there. He
is of the opinion that the student,
if he can do so without too great
a hardship should continue his col
lege work, and using a little phil
osophy that is always good he said,
"Be thrifty; live within your in
come and try to do a little good in
this world."
Consider Status.
Looking at the situation from a
personnel director's angle is the
way that A. A. Rosborough, of
Gold and company must consider
the status of the college graduate.
"I am honestly sorry for the stu
dents that are graduating this
year," said Mr. Rosborough, "the
present outlook for them Is cer
tainly discouraging. I believe that
wherever possible they should re
turn to school and specialize fur
ther in their field, it would help
them, and help the unemployment
situation to some extent." Accord
ing to Mr. Rosborough there Is, of
course, always room in any organ
ization for a man or woman mat
hail something valuable to offer
something that puts them head
and shoulders above the field.
"Fven at the present time, people
are finding jobs." he asserted,
"and that is an indication that
there Is always room for a person
that has something valuable to of
fer." 'That is a difficult question."
said E. A. Ftericbs. district man
ager of the Security Mutual Life
Insurance company and president
of the Cosmopolitan club, lu reply
to a question by the reporter along
this general line. "My advice to the
students is to continue their educa
tion if they can possibly arrange
to do so." Mr. Krerichs believes
that a higher education is more
valuable to a student at the pres
ent time than ever before. "It is
the person who has a little more
to offer than his fellows that is
going to get the job," he con
cluded. According to W. A. Whitten,
secretary of the Lincoln chamber
of commerce Ihe present period is
the survival of the fittest. "I think
that a student should try and fol
low bis l ne of work and be pre
oared to start in at the bottom,"
said Mr. Whitten, and it will take
hard work and perseverence but
this is the tin; when good men are
going to succeed." Mr. Whitten
made the interesting observation
that collese men are too easily dis
couraged and he advocated that
they "hitch their wagon to a star."
Should Come Back.
"I feel sorry for the graduating
senior." Faid Joe Seacrest, secre
tary treasurer of the State Journal
company. "I feel that they should
come back to school if they can
atford it as it offers a compulsory
discipline as well as knowledge."
From Mr. Seacrest's point of view
jobs are goiDg to be hard to get
and that it is especially true m me
east "I think that the student
who is locking for a job should, at
all costs, jfet started witn tne ngni
people regardless of wages or po
sition." "The epportunities now are Just
as good as they were twenty years
ago," said Albert Held, assistant
vice president of the Commerce
National bank. It is Important,
according to Mr. Held, that a per
son get into the field that he likes,
and be must be prepared to worK
hard and at all hours. "It Is not
the hours that count, it is the ef
fort that vou put into those
hours." he declared. Mr. Held Is
highly in favor of a higher educa
