i-ditor for this issue
The year 1021-1022 opens with a favorable outlook. The college
itself is prepared, within the limits of the recent state appropriation,
to serve as large a student body as has ever assembled within its gat
es. It is doing its best with the money provided by the Legislature
lor tlie next two years and the advantage to which the sum is being
spent in educating the men and women of the state will no doubt
prove beyond a shadow of a doubt, that Penn State is the institution
that should be made preeminent in higher educational circles of the
Stale'of Pennsylvania and of the United States.
rile student body is returning from the holidays with a new deter
mination to make the most of the opportunities afforded here for
getting an education. The business depression felt this summer in
nearly all parts of the country has demonstrated that a man must be
well equipped if he is to survive. In the slack period all needless ex
pense is stopped, stall's.are reduced and the weak branches are cut oil.
it has been impressed upon more than one student that success is not
easily bought. The man who has prepared himself to the utmost, who
nas made the best of his opportunities in the class room .and out, and
who did his work well 110 matter how trivial the task, was the man who
Kept his position when others were being discharged. A lesson that is
not easily forgotten has been impressed upon many students during
this past .summer, and a determination to completely master the college
One of the finest customs of Penn State is the student ruling that
every freshman must speak to every other freshman when they meet
on the street or in any of the college buildings. It serves to cultivate
a spirit of comradeship among the first year men and thereby promot
es class spirit. The new men are impressed by the friendly greeting,
and the simple “hello" does more than anything else to drive home to
them that they now belong to the Army of Penn State students.
Even though previously unacquainted with those who address them,
the freshmen are made to feel at home immediately by it. He feels
that others are interested in him enough to speak to him and he sees
that Penn State is the place for men who are wide awake, who are
interested in their fellows and who believe in the spirit of friendliness,
is the place for men who are wide awake, who are interested in their
icllowb, and who believe in the spirit of friendliness.
lhc degree to which this admirable custom is carried out at the
beginning of me semester will largely determine the success which it
will meet mis year. It must get a good start or else languish. The
upperclasbineit and particularly the sophomores are responsible lor tne
observance of life rules and the best way they can enforce this regula
tion is by carrying it out themselves. Not only see that tnc freshmen
speak, but send them a cheery “hello” yourself!
lhc compulsory wearing of name tags by the new men at the op
ening of school is a custom that has not been tried at Penn State, at
least, not in recent years. However it is in force in other colleges and
is very well thought of, as a means of acquainting the new students
with each other.
The decision of Student Council last spring to institute the cus
tom here was well considered. It will greatly supplement the “hello"
custom is properly carried out, and since it has proven its worth to
outer colleges, we want it here.
The style of the tag and the manner in which it must be worn, as
given in another column, should be strictly enforced..
