Against Discrimination? . . .
"Racial discrimination? Sure, I'm against it. Who isn't?
After all, this is a free country ..."
Familiar? Yes, it's a common thing heard about cam
pus these days. But how sincere is it? That is the question.
It sounds good to sermonize on the deplorable conditions
in the South relating to allowing equal rights to Negroes.
Yet what good is the ideal if students sit back and say, yes,
the situation is bad there, but not here.
In effect, that is what many students have done in the
past week. The specific incident we are referring to is the
speech of the distinguished Walter White last week on racial
discrimination problems. An overflow crowd attended the
convocation and applauded when White condemned a re
actionary senator from Nebraska who is opposed to Civil
Rights legislation. And then wjiat? Fraternity, sorority and
independent students went home to dinner and joked about
'Tinky" and "Abie." It happened more than once.
Where's vour sense of humor, you may say. But if we
can joke so flippantly about such a serious problem, how
sincere are we when we say we want "equal rights"?
What we are getting at is this: Nebraska has made a
good start toward lessening the racial problem on this cam
mis bv liftinsr of discriminatory clauses bars on the admit
tance of women to the university-operated residence halls.
It's only a start, though. Another stait was made last week
in Washington. D.C., when a resolution urging the striking
out of discriminatory clauses of fraternity constitutions was
adopted by the national interfraternity conference.
The effect is more important than the fact. Will girls in
the women's dorm who are of other than Caucasian extrac
tion really be allowed to live in the dorm without any dis
crimination whatever? Or will they be stuck off in a corner
of the dorrn by themselves? And the fraternities. Very little
can come of the resolution, says one interfraternity council
member who attended the meeting. It was only a resolution
no enforcing clauses. Something like having your cake and
eating it too, we presume.
What the campus, and the nation, needs is a practical
plan for the elimination of discrimination in the minds of
people, as well as in their actions. We have no profound so
lution except this only by thinking about the problem
ill a solution be reached. Not iust a few neonle with
lately 1, j?m Kosiailnev l'rofound Philosophic leanings; but many people, with on.y
