STUDENT ADVISORS
Last week we spoke briefly on the matter of a student advisor
system and we suggested that the Student Council undertake the
organization of such a system as one of its progressive legislative
steps. In again urging, action we will briefly outline the advantages
to the college of such a system.
In the first place the freshman would at all times have a com
petent upper classman to go to for advice and the close contact be
tween the freshman and senior or junior would tend to a better un
derstanding and a better feeling in the entire student body. It is
often true that a freshman would wish to ask questions of an upper
class friend which he would hesitate to ask of his faculty advisor.
Again, during the first few months when the average freshman
knows little or nothing about college and college life the advice of
an upper classman whom he could trust would help to give the
new student a good start in every phase of life here. In any case
the faculty advisors would carry out their customary work in re
lation to the freshmen.
As for the system of student advisors it can be said that the
group of men in charge of the freshmen in the engineering school
I.t.t year did a good NI, ork but the freshmen in the other schools
were almost entirely neglected. There is no raeson why this sys
tem cannot be expanded so that the freshmen in all of the schools
will profit It is reported that the work has already been started in
the engineering school again this year and with this as a basis it
should be an easy matter to get the system underway at once.
This is obviously a work for the Student Council. As a feasible
plod we w.ould suggest that the council appoint two seniors and one
Junior from the engineering and agriculture schools and one senior
from each of the other schools—for the sake of fair representation
—as a Student Advisor Committee. The chairman of this com
mittee should be a member of the council from any school.
The committee should begin its work at once and should ap
point enough men in each school so that each man would have
about five or seven freshmen to whom he would act as advisor.
These men would be responsible to the committee for the proper
performance of their duty and the committee would in turn be re
sponsible to the Student Council.
The success or failure of the proposed system lies with the men
selected for the work and only conscientious, able and willing men
who have the.interests of the freshmen and of the college at heart
should be appointed. We believe that this matter should be taken
,under consideration at once so that the college would benefit by the
advantages which would accrue from the system this year and which
would be even more apparent next year and in the future.
COLLEGE ACTIVITIES
Go out for some college activity. This advice we would give
to any underclassman or even upperclassman who is not already
in some work outside of his studies. It is a very much mistaken
idea that one goes to college to study only. Our modern Ameri
can college is much broader and bigger in scope than the actual
studies which are taught It is time that college is fundamentally
for study but it is not entirely for study.
We believe that there are at least three big features of college
and they are study, college activities, and good fellowship which
would include the opportunity to make life-long friendship.
Then if one puts all of his time to any one or any ..two of these
phases of college he narrows himself and he dots not get all that
his four years of college has in store for him. For this reason we
believe that everyone should be doing more than the daily routine
of study; he should be engaged in at least one of the college ac
tivities—exerting his energy in competitive work. In all college
competition there is honor and experience and experience is the
bigger part and the thing worth while.
In athletic, literary, musical and dramatic lines there lie big
opportunities for all and we are glad to say that practically every
position is gained by competition which is in all cases keen and
thorough. Aside from benefiting one's self by engaging in the pur
suit of student honors one also helps the college because the
stronger the competition the more able will the winners be. Of
course no one can afford to devote too much of his time to college
activities but this detail is a matter of the individual.
During this time of year in particular, candidates are being
Called out for many competitions and those who are not already
allied with some college activity would do well to get in the run
ning now. In the literary line the collegian competition for the
editorial staff beginning this week offers a wealth of experience to
any freshman who enters. Froth, the comic magazine, and the
Farmer also offer fine experience to those interested in such work.
In the athletic and managerical activities it is only necessary
to read the news columns of the publication to see that men are
being called out from every class for athletics and from the sopho
more class especially for managers positions. And in the same
way in the musical and dramatic lines there are openings for many
men. Again we would say to those who wish to get a bigger value
from their college career—go out for some college activity.
AN EFFICIENT STUDENT COUNCIL
Thirty men, chosen by and representative of the three upper
classes, comprise the Student Council. The idea was the outcome
some years back of a much felt need for some medium between the
faculty and the student body... Since Its inception, the number of
students in college has more than doubled, so that there is now
even greater need for the existence of this organization.
But it should be relatively more efficient. Too often, in recent
years,. its members have *not charge themselves with a proper re
eponsiblity and duty to their college; and, as a result, "the small
minority" has done the real work. A survey of past experience
and a comparison are appreciated by anybody really interested in
plogress. We trust that the present Lonna will profit by the exper
ience of other councils, and that it will meet this year with more
regularity and find every man "on the job." The COLLEGIAN
wishes the body a successful year, and will be more than willing to
support in its columns any movement or action which makes for the
better welfare of the college.
