The attitude of the college authorities during the past two years
toward student activities might well he described as paternalistic
'New regulations and restiictions, following each other at not infre
quent intervals, have wrought radical Chan I , ,!`i in both the social and
class activities of the undergraduate
Of the changes that have been effected in class affairs, little need
he said It was felt by the Board of Trustee.: and the administrative
officials of the college that reform of sonic kind in this respect was
a necessity With loyalty to the administration in mind, the stu
dents gave their whole-hearted support in the elimination of the evils
incident to Poster Night and the fast freshman class fleeting, there
by reducing both of these class affairs, witn years of tradition behind
them, to mere shells of their former significance And the attitude
of the undergraduates was surprisingly forbearing.
In marked contrast, however, is the feeling that prevails among
the students and is finding expression on the campus in regard to the
restrictions that have been n➢posed upon the social and personal ac
tivities of the undergraduate, a feeling so pronnaneed that the COL
LFGIAN can no longer ignore it
The abolmon of student cars, Kite totting down of social func
tions allowed fraternities during the semester, and indications that
June house-party will soon be a thing of the past, arc some of the
major reasons for the present unhealthy feeling among the under
graduates A section from the latest notice of the Senate Committee
on Student Welfare-1s interesting It states that "No change will
be made in the Commencement house-party program for this year
except in the closing date." Remembering past comments of college
authorities, some students, more pessimistic than the rest, have found
in that statement, "no change for this year", .t menace to the June
house-party, and speculation is rife as to just what extent the College
will go in taking ultimate action on tlus question.
The object of the Board of Trustees and administrative officials
in restricting social activities and regulating peisonal privileges is
somewhat vague to the casual undergraduate observer It has been
suggested that it is done with a two-fold purpose,—to raise the stan
dards of scholarship and to lower the expenses of the students. Sit
uated in the Nittany Valley, far removed from large towns and crowd
ed communities, Penn State is singularly free from these influences
that tend to lower scholarship and promote extravagance On five
nights doling the week the student has nothing to do but study or
loaf, and no matter how much legislation is passed against the social
activity that pi evails on the other two nights, it is reasonable to believe
that the fellow who loafs will continue to loaf and below grades will
continue to congest the mails
The college authorities, acting in conjunction with the Board
of Trustees, can go the limit in their regulation of social activities,
or they can elect to govern by supervimon lather than by restriction
It is felt that the undergraduates, recognizing that higher standaids
of scholarship and observance of the principles of economy are for
their own good, ale ready to cooperate vith the College toward this
end But it is not felt that further restriction of social activities
and I egulation of personal pi is liege, will bung about the desired re
sults.
IEgIMEEEEI
There is a man coming to Penn State who has been here before,
men well-known among college students and held in high esteem
by them, a man whose clear-cut thirking and unusual ability as an
orator has gained for hint the respect and iegaid of even the most
critical and skeptical individuals This man is Sherwood Eddy.
It is a loi tunate student body flat is permitted the protege of
hearing Dr Eddy lecture, foi he is considered the most sought For
speaker to students in the world Penn State undergraduates will be
accorded that privilege on the beginning of nest week when a series of
four connected addresses will be delivered by this fascinating figure on
international, racial, economic and student problems
A tecognined platform authority nit national and international
questions, Dr. Eddy will present them Iron! the viewpoint of Christian
character and idealism. But he will not deal with a discussion of
these problems alone, for he is planning to devote one night to stimu
lating wholesome thought on campus affairs with the introduction of
personal ideas on the honor of college students.
Penn State undergraduates should welcome the opportunity to
hear Dr Eddy speak. ror it is the opinion of those students who
heard him on on,e or other of his former visits that Ins message is
certain to be of helpful value to college men and women.
PETTY DISTURBANCES
Numei nun complaints have come to the attention of Student
Council during the past few weeks to the effect that undergraduates
are stealing electric light bulbs or otherwise disposing of them by
breakage. It would seem that concerted action is being taken by the
merchants and other interested towns-people to do away with these dis
turbing and repeated occurrences once and for all time. And there is
no disputing the fact that they are justified to taking such action.
There are some individuals in every college community who have
no sense of personal honor and little regard for the honor of the
college. These individuals commit such petty misdemeanors as stealing
electric light bulbs There are other students sails delight in break
ing bulbs and destroying personal ploperty for the "tun" they de
rive in doing it. Both cases are eramples of undergraduates whose
viewpoints are warped and need correcting.
Combined action of towns-people and college audio; ities will
greet disturbances of a similar nature In the future. Such notification
should be sufficient warning to undergraduate ofknilcrs in this respect 1

,ice of a Career
,iht
From the Yale Nevis
•
Someone, probably an insurance
agent, was quoted recently as saying
that from the mass of one hundred
college graduates one individual only
rose to the Polo and butler class, peril
'Casty near the top of the financial lad
der.- Five others became comfortably
fig and found themselves after to enty
years at the small yacht and chauffeur
stage. The other ninety-four presum
ably,,congregate in the great section of
the,Americart people who drive their
owp,Buteks to the golf club. In other
,words, dreaming about being a rich
map is one thing, and making the grade
something else again "
Yet ttte ninety-four presumably work
limas hard as the sumptuous six. Their
huiiness is the axis on la hich a small
and uninteresting world resolves. They
hive become devotees of the dollar
and when that fickle deity deserts, have
npwhere else to tarn. Jammed m a
dull, straight rut of business they can
never leave the road and jump the fence
into finer fields of life. This, then, is
the portion of ninety-four men out of
every hundred now on the campus.
• The answer to the problem lies in
' , the proper choice of a career.
