Our "Sarry" of Around ami About fame,
whose connections with the Daily Nehraskan
were severed with her graduation on Jan. 2.
takes a backward glance at university life in
the current issue of the Nebraska Alumnus
The article is interesting in considering both
the personality of the young lady writ in c it
and the thought which is developed there.
The title of her article is "Four Lone Years."
Criticisms in the article, which she levels
at the behavior of the average student during
his existence at university are strong enough
to arouse even the most lethargic student and
true enough to give all a few conscience pangs.
"I micht as well admit, richt off the bat.
that the Four Lone Years didn't play a lot
of havoc with my little old gray matter. Per
haps I built up immunity during those dis
eases of childhood known as elementary and
secondary education. Perhaps was born im
mune. At all events, few of Ihe contagious,
pernicious idea germs breathed forth by the
university had much effect upon me. 1 leave
this college vale of sorrows as much a dlt
as T entered it, only now I know the impene
trability of my cerebral hide." Miss Meyer
'Sarry') points out. If she feels impelled to
level this criticism at herself, one might revert
to slang and say, heaven help the rest of us.
for Sarry has a right to be listed amone the
ranks of Nebraska's more intelligent students.
She goes on to include more students
in her criticism by declaring, "If I might
make so bold, I think most of the patient'
in the university institution are similarly
thick-skinned. It is true that a percentage
of those who enter the portals eventually
graduate to the eternal fires of Earning
Daily Bread. But a large portion of these
are never really tracked with the intellec
tual possibilities of the universe, fired with
a feverish yen to know, to understand. They
just drift into graduation as they drifted
into college contamination, and will drift,
in all probability, in the Life After Uni
versity." Miss Meyer remarks that although the
idea isn't new she considers it a serious prob
lem when so few students catch any really
soul-shaking ideas during all their four or
more years of being exposed, supposedly to
every conceivable variety of ideas. And she
fives as her reason for the problem of "fine
ideas running off collegiate cranium" the
fact that most students enter the institution
of university with every idea in mind except
that of getting good and contaminated with

tion, and they all want to catch some variety
of woe. if not idea germs, so a goodly per
eentnee seeks the attractive invalidism of
playanionia. or partyitis.
"Sarry" levels another harsh, but justi
fied criticism at the students who become
the troublesome victims of bigshoteria. Of
this class of students Miss Meyer comments,
"These bigshots, as they are called are usu
ally intensely active, or give the appearance
of being so, and are given to violent non
productive motion, such as back-slapping,
hand-pumping, and the lengthy type of ex
halation they consider talking." Their illness
is characterised by systemati2ed delusions
concerning themselves and their world. They
are the ones who are immortal before, not
after, graduation."
ne of the most interesting comments
which "Sarry" makes concerning her univer
sity life is. that from the older students she
met around and about ihe campus, she con
tracted sourpussitis. "It's a sort of srowine
up derangement, and practically inevitable in
the even normally alert, and sensitive person."

that this is not wholly inevitable, because I

achievements of their alma mslers in their
schools' advancement of science, in their

While "Sarry" was still a student of the
university and a member of the Daily Nebras

"Unable to see the forert for

THE AVERAGE M1SSEKS'
SEND A PETITION
Dear Saga, Sir:
We, the undersigned students
are the unfortunates who didn't
make our averages for fraternity
and sorority initiation. And we
don't want to sound as if we are
talking about the T. N. E's that
is something we know nothing
about, but we think our minority
opinion should be presented. We
have gathered, then, in our quaint
and begrudging ways and com
posed our feelings in this petition.
If the university student is,
after he graduates, to show that
he In no way feels superior to
the person not receiving a uni
versity education (we think he
should), the university profes
sor must ostracize himself from
every evidence of pedantry in
his classroom. To be Intelligent,
learned, and critical In the
process of thinking is admirable;
to display an ostentatious order
of knowledge, needlessly and in
opportunely presented, is a fault
that we don't like. We feel that
few professors really understand
everything with which they
pack and cram" their lectures.
THE AUTHORITY
Not because any one profes
sor in nriv nne .Hennvt 'nent rr
i conceit oi lmempence
r T i
could be
Lnouch" vnowledee to acouire a 1
enough knowledge to acquire
5 perfect grade in the course.
I Some students might even be
led so tar astray (as we were)
by pedantry that they would
believe the editor of. the text
book used in the classroom
would be rewarded with the sec
ond highest grade of the class
because his scholarship and au
thority on the subject would be
secondary to that of the profes
sor himself.
We might advance the argument
that there mav be one individual
in the classroom with still enough
be impressed by the display win
I dow of education set up by the
professor. There is a possibility
j that the Rhowcards of wisdom,
j which are set out, would attract a
; student to some interest entirely
unknown before that time.
TRUE CONFUSION.
Too often, however, students
j like uc are befuddled and confused .
by the less important material
brought into a lecture to display
self satisfaction and personal
pride. When the student is exam
ined over the .material; then, as
we were, disappointment and de-:
spair are generally the result. To ;
be a teacher is admirable; to be
pedantic is repulsive ir, any class-1
room.
And so, we make it known
that all men by these presents
know: that the professor must
recognize that his pedantry is
sometimes suspected; realize
that his own knowledge of the
classroom subject should in no
way affect the grading of stu
dents, and visualize the day
when all systems of grading
will be obsiete.
P. S. Today the university pro
fessor mum correct himself: his
students have realized pedantry
too long.
