Have you ever thought it over and asked yourself that question' , Have you ever read over the provisions of the system and the interpretations of it at Penn State' , It so, is it limited by those provisions, or does it have a bigger and broader meaning to you? Have you been doing all in your power to make it a real system of honor' , During the current year, the Honm Committee has been con fronted with n number of cases of supposed dishonesty in quizzes and examinations, and there have been convictions as well as acquittals. In neary every case, the point has been raised by the accused that they have seen lots of "cribbing" going on all during the year, yet there has not yet been a single case reported by a student. Do you realize that in permitting such acts to go on, you are equally guilty with the culprits' , Yes, even more so, for while they are so morally weak that they have no sense of honor, you are a moral coward for not stooping them or reporting them And you are doing them more of an injury in permitting them to "crib" than you would be if you reported them, for the man who does not play square to college will certainly not play square when he is out of college, and the peniten tim les are full of men who have simply obtained the wrong start in life But perhaps the worst and hardest thing of all to believe is that some men, even upperclassmen, have expressed the opinion that the Honor Slstem is a joke and that it need not he lived up to. We would hate to sly what we feel about men whose principles are so low as tr permit them to give such advice to others. Even the worst criminal has a sense of honor, but a man guilty of making the aforesaid statement deserves the contempt of the world And here is where the pitiful side of it comes in. As a result of such advice, younger men are led astray, they attempt to "crib" and apparently not being so well-versed in the art as their older advisers, fortunately, they are caught. We say fortunately because they have been stopped in time. It is a bitter lesson, but it will never be for gotten But the man who becomessmrdened to it may lir be caught until later in life, when he doe it will be fatal. Penn State's Honor System "is no joke, as some have already found out. It is a peculiar type of joke that ships a man from col lege for at least a year, and we fail to see the tunny side of it. So do the victims now. But it is up to the students to get a broader and deeper grasp on the Honor System. Answer those questions in the first paragraph and then be honest with yourself. Are you playing squat c or are you a moral coward? ANOTHER MILESTONE PASSED With the present issue, another COLLEGIAN year is ended and the old staff steps down in favor of a new one. The year has been a very slim t one, extremely short, due to the necessity of curtailing publication while the college was under the military rule of the Students' Army Training Corps last fall. However, we believe that the year has been an eventful one in many respects, and if the COL LEGIAN has taken even a small part in helping to restore normal conditions to Penn State, we feel that our efforts have not been in vain. he retiring staff does not feel that the COLLEGIAN has been as good as it might have been thus far Undoubtedly we have made mistakes for these, we are sorry and wherever possible we have ti ied to I ectify them There are two main types of newspaper policies, the one being destructive and the other constructive. We have at t..mpted to combine the two with the idea of making our criticism constructive. For our editorial policy, we offer no apologies, believ ing that none are necessary To our readers and subscribers, we extend our thanks for their support and encouragement, for the latter particularly. To our ad artisers, who have made the paper possible, we would say that we are gi atzful for their help, and we would urge our readers to patron -I,e them To the younger members of our staff, upon whom the I ulk of the routine work has rested and who have worked hard to lake the paper what it is, we have no hesitancy in saying that we feel the COLLEGIAN will be left in capable hands. For the new staff, we would ask your support in the future as heartily as it has been given in the past. If any have personal rievances, let them go out with the retiring staff and do not carry o t ' them over to the new one. And in conclusion, we would say that we have tiled to follow out the policy so well expressed in the preamble to our constitution: "To serve Penn State, in the true sense of the word, by present ing to her students during the college year a carefully and honestly prepared newspaper, an unprejudiced chronicle of events worthy of note, to seek after the truth above rill else, and to endeavor to re flect at all times the sentiment of the students of the college." If we have, served Penn State in but a small measure, we feel amply [could for all our efforts. HARDLY FAIR Some time ago, the COLLEGIAN, following the policy of the college, urged that everything possible be done to bring the men who hove been in service back to college to complete their courses. It was felt that many of these former students would be so mentally estless that they would not feel inclined to return to the regular routine of academic life, and for that reason, it was hoped that every thing possible would be done to bring these men back. • The icsult has been pleasing in many respects. Approximately Vine hundred of these former students returned to college during the opening weeks of the second semester, and the college authorities Lnileavored to help them by allowing them credit for their military service in many instances These men, therefore, will lose very little actual time by their absence. But what can be done for those men who are only now being released from service and who would like to return at once and taus get a start in completing their courses? Apparently, they are I xeiving very little encouragement in their efforts to return and in tact, many of them are discouraged. Is it not possible for them to at East take off some work during the balance of the present year and Le that much farther advanced than if they waited until next fall? The COLLEGIAN believes that it is and that something should be done for these students It should be realized that if they are turned down now, they will probably never have the desire to return again and we believe that it is to the advantage of the college as well as the indi viduals that they should return. if: On the Corner vii1:111: 31,11:1: OUR 1:C11•SITf • Yet, dear I coder . 111114 is moving-up week on The (ad obeet, and we ale Inclined To lilted much teals that we moot ot loot Conte to the ill* et hen we en* (moven to 111-11) Iletchti thottOtt %So %,eits molting out mso fut., ell ittlttleso, didn't lOU' Olt. au.
