Results of the faculty-sponsored questionnaire wou d

not favor the change from the present system, btuclent
opinion obviously follows that of the instructors.
From that standpoint, the Student Councils recom
mendations seem to be the best answer to the Senate p
sincere interest in correcting exam problems. The student
governing body suggests six ideas that could supplement
the present system.
The Council suggests: (1) That there be less emphasis
on final exams; (2) that the final should in no case de
termine more than 25' h of the grade; (3) that instructors

It is not at all an attempt to regulate the clothing
worn by women on the campus, nor does it have such a
far-reaching effect to cause a deep study of either the Dec
laration of Independence or the Federal Constitution. It if
merely an attempt to make the women "see the light," and
to put them on a more cosmopolitan plane with women on
othefcampuses.
Independence is a wonderful thing. At the same time
it seems rather childish for a person to cut off his nose
to save his face. Let the women wear what they want to.
If they wish to appear attractive from the standpoint of
a man, all is well. If, however, their social standing and
appearance is hindmost of their thoughts, let them weai
their jeans and look .like a mess.
You modern women have taken the men's jobs, have
their place in public life and have in general attempted to
' dominate this man's world. But for sake, won'fyou
