Speaking of Arts . . . "Well, a new semester another year 'for arts students to put in time, another year for engineers to study, really study." With that statement made in our office the other day the airing oi a standing and perennial argument between engineer tng and arts students began. The argument is this: just what good conies from the arts? On the one side, the engineers maintain that no good study habits are acquired by the arts student, that an arts course is a "pipe , and that the only real "students" are men and women in science, phvsies, fiieineeriner. or mathematics. On the other side, thearts student argue that theirs will be a "broad education," adaptable to many fileds. There are many, many more minor arguments on both sides, but in the majority, the question comes in whether or not arts Students should class themselves as "students". We think so. Granted: engineering, scientific, and mathe matical majors are fitted for a specific line of work upon graduation. Their schedules while in college demand more actual time put into meeting assignments, possibly more in study to meet those assignments. Art students, apparently, have nothing to do but attend classes, listen to lectures, get out of the courses what they wish, and accept their credit at the end of the semester. But, and this is the fact seemingly overlooked by the "students", it appears pretty obvious when taken in the long range viewpoint that the arts student will have just as easy a time getting along in post-college life, whether or not they had to "study" in college. Why? Because we think you can't be exposed to four years of arts courses without being at least stirred into think ing and that thinking is important. Collegest originally were not meant to be technical training schools; they were eneour aged so that thinkers might be created. Too often, engineering students, in their four, five or six years of study, acquire a habit of measuring everything of try ing to solve all problems on the same basis of which an equa tion might be solved. And that just ain't the way it's done. Too often, the engineer's daily guide is the slide rule. Social, economic, domestic, political, educational, moral, and other everyday problems can hardly be fitted to the slide rule method for their solution. Engineers are needed, and thinkers-about, and doers-of, the everyday things that lead to a happier, more sociable, fuller way of life are needed. Both are necessary, with one requiring a mueh smaller comparative field than the other. In both there are failures; in both there are individuals who do not prove the argument, but both are, in the truest sense "students". 0. W. A.

WSSF (Continued from Page 1.) easily be met, stated university officials. Students Sacrifice. Many individual gifts for stu dent relief represent real sacri fice. One student in a Texas col lege works from 3 to 11 p. m. to earn her way thru college. A tenth of this income she gives to her college's WSSF drive. At a theo logical seminary, students worked as orderlies in a nearby hospital and in the town postoffice during Christmas in order to raise their quota. At a leading mid-western college, students sold food from home in order to help their col lege go over the top. "With such a spirit dominating American students, it is clear that we shall not only win thewar but that we are laying a solid founda tion for winning the peace," said President Rainey. "Reaching the World Student Service Fund's gwl of $300,000 is one of the best ways I know to conserve and de velop the trained leadership that will be so sorely needed in the post-war world."

Speed Up Education. "Classes have been re-arranged to permit wartime students to speed up their education in night classes," declares Dr. K. O. Broady, director of the extension division, which is sponsoring the classes. "Classes will start at 6 p. m., and at 7:50 p. m., thus en abling students to take two classes the same evening." Tuition fees for the courses are $4 per credit hour. Late registra tion fees will be charged those students who fail to register be fore Feb. 15.
