Wo regret the course has not been continued regularly throughout the college year. Its expediency has been contain ly demonstrntod. Men of experience In high or education nnl in public life are always welcomed to nn JnstittuMon of learning. They say somothing tlniit te judicious, practical and dosoning of consideration. The solution of tho problems of education and of society belongs to tho flold of tho lonraod. Students arc desirous of listening to talks on such practical topics in addition to tiholr rogulnr work. It is a change from tho order of things. May tho lecture course be con tinued witm more regularity during .the ensuing year. Much complaint has boon made of late of a few tudonts rolying upon otliors for required class work, espe cially notes and readings. Tho ovil results of such mental training are certainly apparent. Then, why Is Uio abuse carried so far that It leeomos a pernicious habit? No one suffers, really, but tho student Who persists Sn substituting someone else's Industry, mental onorgy and culture for his in dolonco and unseemlng conduct. Ev ery student certainly realizes that knowledge cannot be absorbed like waitor 1n a spongo, but must como through tho Industrious application of tho mind. Tho habit of rolying on a fellow studont 1 deceptive and speaks ill of tiho university. Jt decolves the professor. Dishonesty takes the plnce of honesty. Tho truo worth of tho studont in any pojltfcular study cannot bo flioertalnod. But, nevertheless, tho one -who cheats appears in tho dries room jut as dignlflod and pompous as tho one who has lnborod indopondontly and done his work for himself. In truth, ho Is equally respected by tho student body. This Is tho wrong spirit to prevail. Tho nppnront solution of tne problem lies in the province of the students. s one of tho professors says, every student should realize Unit It Js just as dishonorable and deceiving to rentier much aid as It l to roctMvo it. When It is realized thmt tho ovil falls equally on all, the dishonorable mid shameful pmctilco will bo eradicated. It scorns that tho athlotlc IkkuM itook hanty action in regard to Mr. RywoU'h resignation. Tho following apology by tho board wo gladly publish to cor rect miio report that appeared Inst week: THIS UNIVERSITY OF NtillllAS KA, April 2.1, ISM Tho university nth. lotle bonrd learns with ivgrot that tho report sent to its meeting on April 10 by Mr. Kvorott as mnnngor of tho tnuK team wn not roeolwd prior to Its nr eeptnnce of his resignation, Mr. lSv-ei-ett'8 nbsoneo from tho moving, wliloli was duo to unfowsoon onues mid of whleh ho sent n tolnphotin mes snRe thnt wib not dellvorwl, gnve rlp to a belief Mint lie hnd done nothing towards propnmtlon for the minimi fWil dny.
