What’s -wrong with our present-day Highacres College student? Have
the hurricanes., wars, refusal of parking permits or maybe the
ratio of females to males changed them? For one thing., must it be said
again, they lack respect or maybe call it negligence* untidiness or
loss cf college spirits Whatever it may be, there is something missing.
For the past few weeks, if you happened to walk through the
cafeteria on a Friday afternoon, you were sure to be hit in the face
with mainly, a litter of Collegians, but also paper bags, waxpaper,
scratch paper and what have you., strewn upon the floor, chairs, tables,
and light shades. Why should we have to face such a "bar room" appearance?
This unmannerly action creates double work fors (1) Mrs. Smith and Mrs*
Michaels, who keep the dining room tidy and are not contracted to go into
the "salvage business" o (2) The custodians who have to interrupt their
sweeping to bend over and pick up your remains, (3) The writers, typists,
mimeographers, and. assemblers of the Collegian, who spend their valuable
effort and time producing our laudable weekly news#
Remember, part of your s7 activity fee is included in each
edition of the Collsgian - so that each one you dispose of means throwing
some of your precious money away. No, this does not mean that you
have to frame each cony nor does it mean than you have to make a
collection of them, but the least you can do after reading them, if you
don’t want to keep them, is put them back on the pile from where you
took it, dispose of it in the waste can, or if you wish, keep ohem in
your notebook for scratch paper* These are minor approaches, and call
for very little exertion on your part.
’/’hat do you say keep our college clean. As noted before, not
only have Collegians been strewn around, but lunch bages, apple cores,
and" Math papers as well. However, since the Collegians are larger,
more noticeable in color and their original source of out-put easily
found to complain to, their unduly presence has forced the initiative,
DO YOUR PART & HAVE A HEART
TO THE TRASH CAN TOTH A DART
During Psychology class Mr. Krecker asked, while talking about
the brain, what cortex meant. The class responded with "bark" which
was the correct definition.
While leaving class, Jimmie Johnson still dazed, remarked "My
dog cortexes all night,"
What has happened to the"members of "the College Community Chorus?
Lately the members have been failing to turn up at the meetings, It
is necessary that more than a handful of them show up« The Christmas
Concert is only four weeks off. How can it be a success if only a few
members attend? Won’t all of the members try to attend for the next
few weeks?
