That There May Be
Scholarships
For a number of years it lins been tlio cus
tom of the student newspaper to point out the
cryin.fr needs of the university. And for that
same number of years there has been little ac
complished 'toward eradicating these needs.
The same totterinjj library still stands with
little hope of a new structure in the near fu
ture. Similarly University hall, Nebraska
hall, and a few other ancient buiklinirs dot the
campus, in spite of frequent condomnines by
archieectural authorities. Constant reminders
of these needs and presentation of the existing
situation may impel the state legislative body
to see fit to provide funds for a university
building program in the near future. While
the legislative body is not in session and is
unable to survey the situation, another campus
need which does not require legislative action
mipht be opportunely presented. That is the
need for an enlarped list of scholarships which
arc available to students attending the uni
versity. There arc numerous campus societies
which in soma respects serve only the pur
pose of cluttering up the university. If
these societies, which endeavor to fit into
the category of extracurricular activities
would sincerely attempt to accomplish a
worthy goal, rather than being merely time
wasters, they mipht have some justification
for existence. Several of the outstanding
organizations on the campus have already
inaugurated the custom of offering scholar
ships from part of their funds. A few soci
eties such as the Women's Athletic associa
tion, the Mortar Board society, and, more
recently the interfraternity council have es
tablished funds for scholarship grants. Simi
lar organizations and departmental societies
might justify their existence by following
the example already set.
At the present time the ceneral university
scholarships and prizes total only about lo.
Aside from the few graduate scholarships and
fellowships and the regents' scholarships of
fered to freshmen, the university's scholarship
award list is appallingly blank. When one
considers this scanty list in comparison to the
thick volumes of scholarship offering sent out
from some of the larger universities in Califor
nia and other states, the need for interest in
scholarship crants is clearly realized.
That there is & definite need for addi
tional contributions for scholastic assistance
is not doubted by those who understand the
deficiency. The deplorable character of the
situation at Nebraska has been brought to
light by the recent address of President
Conant of Harvard. In his talk to the Asso
ciated Harvard Clues, he stressed the need
at Harvard for a larger number of scholar
ships at that institution. In so doing he of
fered a striking comparison to a situation at
Nebraska which has fewer scholarships and
less agitation to rcmedv the plight.
The irony of the affair is that correction
of the ill could be accomplished with little ef
fort on the part of campus organizations and
perhaps more philanthropic alumni. A poli.-v
which might be successfully followed bv the
campus oiganizations at Nebraska might be
patterned after a system which is used suc
cessfully on the Universitv of Cincinnati cam
pus. The system used to make scholarships
available to more students is one in which the
various organizations of students pledire them
selves to contribute a certain amount to a gen
eral scholarship fund. The amalgamation of
small contributions add together to comprise
a considerable fund from which interest on the
invested capital forms a basis for a number
of monetary awards. Were this policy fol
lowed, a potential 100 organizations, contrib
uting at an average of $10. would add $1,000
in one year to a much needed fund. In adding
this capital each year an accumulated amount
that would reap one scholarship a year would
be produced, with no overbearing strain on
any croup involved.
All campus groups which feci Ihcv have a
right to exist at Nebraska, including Creek let
ter groups, should be cmilacted and should
contribute to the scholarship fund. Such an
organization as the women's interorganization
council or the student council might well un
dertake such a plan for enlarging the number
of scholarships offered nt Nebraska.
Students whose ambitions cause annual
pleadings for financial assistance in the
form of scholarships, are quick to seek the
awards but reluctant to form the basis for
new scholarships. Every year scores of de
serving students are denied the right to fur
ther their education because an adequate
fund is not available to endow the students
whose standing, financially and scholastical
ly, merits aid. Yet. in the efforts to form a
reasonable fund, the students have been
adept in passing the buck. As a result, the
unfortunate condition has persisted.
Thus, it will be up to the students to make
the first move if further scholarship grants are
to be made available. They clamor vehemently
for endowments by alumni and civic friends
of the university, while never offering to give
aid for their own interest. If the student bodv
takes action by promoting these contributions
by student bodies, added contributions In
other groups are eminent. But. the first step
is up to the students.
This appears to be a chance for campus
organizations, including departmental clubs,
to do something that cannot help but justify
their existence.

petition sn;m;us
How nice anii consoling it must
be to have one of Nebraska's
greatest institutions, the Lincoln
Cathedral rhnir. on the Any of a
national broadcast th.it will bring
more fame to it and the state of
Nebraska as a whole - how nice
and consoling it must be for mem
bers of this choir to face a peti
tion half filled with signatures
against its affiliation with the uni
versity. Tetition signers, whether
they are conscientious or the "fol
lower of the herd." should feel
proud of themselves on this day -Nebraska's
dsv on the air.
In our biased, prejudiced and
perverted manner of looking at
them, petition signers are all
alike. It Is our belief that they
fall into one of two categories:
1. They sign something be
cause they, like the savage, are
desirous of seeing their names
on paper in 1 long list of other
names.
2. They are firmly rooted
either pro or con en an issue
which is paramount for the day.
Tiring Arguments.
Truly, we can say that we didn't
want to s.iy anythint; more about
this question because many argu
ments, even on both sides, have
become set and monotonous and
the entire issue will he decided nt
the most unexpected lime. Sec
ondly, however, we will say that
we are in favor with the proposed
affiliation and have done every
thing in our poor power to see the
quest inn successfully thru.
But petition signers, as far
as petition signers go, are most
ly of the same species and
pedigree, if such a word can
well be used. Well over half of
the signers of petitions, yes,
even on both sides of this ques
tion, signed because they
thought it the social and mod
ern thing to do. Their thinking
proccssts run much bke this:
"Will you sign this petition?"
"Yes, what is it?"
Whether it is members of the
Social Student Council or unthink
ing students in the School of Mu
sic, petition 'signers are a well
known coalition in the "follow-the-herri"
faction. Yes. we've even
heard of university graduates who
got themselves in a lot of (rouhl
bv being lined to put their names
on something they knew little or
nothing about. These people,
thoughtless, dreamy, and unbol ti
ered ns they are, are the sucker
bait for plying politicians, luring
lawyers, and mereinary musical
minded men.
Pencil Pushing Suckers.
The Lincoln Cathedral choir,
then, will go on the nation's air
this aftirnoon. Sixty members
I e-f that choir and several thou
I sand of its student supporters
I will be mindful of you, you. and
i you the suckers of petition
I signing. They will feel nroud of
you because they know that you
make up the better half of hu
! manity the half that likes to
1 follow and perform under the
strings of the petition circulator.
I We onlv hope, however, that
; members of the choir and their di
1 rector will remember the most
I inst and fair measure of the
sampling of their popularity. We
sincerelv hope that they will re
member the Daily Nrbraakan poll,
which with all its adverse lobby
ing, proved highly favorable for
the affiliation. We hope that they
realize the fact that petitions on
either side of the question are just
so much poppycock and govern
themselves accordingly.
