Member of Ensigns Latorcolleglaio iionspaper Association FRIDAY, ,JANUARY 18, 1924 News Editor this'issue _ LAW-ENFORCEMENT The recent-law-enforcement convetition held at the University of Pennsylvania, at which seventeen colleges were represented, marked an• other forward step in undergraduate thought and endeavor. Conferences and meetings of student leaders front the several institutions brought to light many problems which were discussed from the viewpoint of the alumni, faculty members, fraternity groups, and general student bodies. Needless to say, the violation of the Eighteenth Amendment to the National Constitution furnished the basis for discussion in con. nection with law enforcement as it applies to resident college students The general situation in this respect at American institutions of high er learning was greatly deplored and remedial measures of a Firm and decisive nature were suggested. Severe,punishment by, the administration of all students who vio late the Eighteenth Ainendment and, the publication in college papers of the punishment lists, a publicity campaign, a referendum by each student body on the enforcement issue, an assumption by fraternities for their alumni who _return-to college, and a pledge by the under graduate body ,that it wIl Carry out the purposes outlined,—these is sues, in brief, furnish the basic program which the various committees chosen at the convention will' seek to put in force at the institutions represented. In connection with this, rapidly increasing sentiment throughout the state and nation against the apparent lawlessness of college stu dents and their flagrant defiance of the Constitution of the United States, it is a source of extreme satisfaction to know that Penn State was the first institution in the Commonwealth and one of the first in,the country to take a definite stand against such violations of law and order. And there is cause for even greater satisfaction in know ing that this action was taken by the students themselves on their own initiative and without any suggestions pro or con from the ad• ministration. About a month , ago, the Student Council at Penn State adopted a resolution embodying an official, protest against all illegal traffic in , alcoholic beverages, and heartily endorsing any action on the part of the college administration in punishing students copinutting such of tenses in violation of the Eighteenth Amendment to the National Constitution. It was a step well worth taking and was recognized as such by college and.state.of ficials. Governor Pinchot, in a letter to Student Council, complimented that governing body upon its de cisive action and, pledged his cooperation and that of the Common w:alth. Penn State undergraduates have taken their stand as leaders in the movement for law and order in college communities. They must not be found wanting in-its support. For, in the words of the Gov ernor, "nothing must be left ,undone to bring campus opinion into harmony with the Constitution of the United States". BEWARE:OF THE GERM! Each'year, about this time, it becomes necessary to issue warning, serve notice, or othel•wise.'l;lake known officially to college under graduates that a disease germ of an insidious nature is at work among' their number. Cribbing" is the name popularly attached to this germ which waits tcolodge in broken,down tissue at a moment's notice. And it is at this,time of year, during semester examinations, that the germ gets in its-most dangerous thrusts Cribbing is never justified. There may be many causes for it but there is never an excuse. Some students insist that the preva lence of dishonesty is due in large part to the type of exams given by the faculty and to the unwarranted systems of policing. Perhaps this assertion is true in some cases. Where such conditons exist they should be corrected. But even this is no excuse for cribbing. If the examinations are really unfair in the opinion of the stu dent and he finds difficulty' in' passing after conscientious prepara tion, it is his duty to acquaint the instructor with this fact. Perhaps the next tests will be conducted upon a fairer basis. It is far better to do this and run the risk of incurring the disfavor of the prof than to resort to cribbing as a means of getting through a course. Col lege men and women ought to build character if nothing else. But the undergraduate must come half-way in the matter of exams. Usually, if a student4tnows his subject, he has little trouble passing the course. Instructors and students alike must assume part of the responsibility. ' But it makes little, if, any difference, who has,been , to,blame. For the matter at hand , deals with the pre sent and the future, not the past: Some people believe that cribbing is the concern of the individ ual, since, by his acts of dishonesty, he primarily hurts himself. Per haps they are right. But whether or no, the disease seems to be con tagious and as such,must. be•stopped. It is believed that the proposed Penn State Code of Honor, affecting lying, cheating and stealing, would do much to remedy existing conditions. ..... _ Editor•ln-Cake __ Managing Editor .- -Managing Editor H.
