COMMENCEMENT
The seniors are bid adieu For four tears they have worked to
attain the much meted sheepskin and now their work as students is
done Commencement draws near to convert them into alumni
But they can not lease off seining Penn State, for they are to be of a
loyal bend which grows larger year by year They have been pre
pared to carry the name of Penn State out into old and new fields
and the same sense of responsibility rests upon them as it has upon
those who linve gone before In their new roles they will be ex
pected to produce coca as they produced while at college No ex
cvses sill be granted the Penn State alumnus for failing in the task
given him in the business world and none are expected Every con
fidence is placed m his ability to carry the gospel of Penn State with
him wherever he may go It is for him to present the all-important
issues that are current in the minds of the undergraduates today.
The members of the Class of 1924 well understand the new problems:
they have the nevi pleases of the old questions firmly fixed in mind
As they depart from their Alma Mater they take with them esery
good wish of the student body fcr success in their chosen tasks adieu,
and may they serve their missions such.
The word COMMENCEMENT implies an idea of the beginning
er origin of something. In truth it is the annual festival when de
grees arc conferred at the colleges. Commencement means that one
phase of life is over and done and that another is about to begin To
the senior it means that his college days have become history. The
world awaits him with open arms; ready to take him unto itself for
entamination—an e \animation far more impOrtant thou any-he might
have outlived while in college Will he pass the tests He alone
knows his fitness and abilities.
To the undergraduate commencement probably means a time to
put aside books and forget college for three whole months It should
mean more than that. Commencement signifies another choice year
of the college man's life gone by, never to return It is a , time for
retrospection, an occasion to sum up and take a personal inventory.
The work accomplished, base you shown athancement, has the
}car been a profitable ones flow far behind are you in the accounts
left to your keeping' , These and other questions should be in
cluded in ever} undergraduate's commencement-time questionnaire
If the student can NICW the results of his scholastic endeavor
during the past year without quaking, having that feeling that he has
truly deNcioped to the best of his ability, his is the full achieNement.
But to take a personal inventory and find that he has failed to return
inure talents than were entrusted him at this time a year ago, is a
hemoanable situation Such a condition should warrant n resolution
to produce the missing quantity before ne'.t commencement.
No student need go further than any member of the present
Senior Class to determine the value of a college education Ask any
senior if tic minks that he worked hard enough, if he thinks he has
accomplished all that was capable of him. His answer will invar
iably be NO , Look back then }on worldly-wise Juniors, you hard
headed sophomores, you none-too-meek freshmen—look back and
see wherein you hose failed, wherein lie your chances to improve
your status as students
A LAST WORD
What will be the feeling toward house parties on the Penn State
campus at this time next rear.% Will they be viewed with favor by
the College and if not, who will be to blame' , Those are the ques
tions that are uppermost in the minds of the undergraduates today.
Aftcr all the preparation and agitation, the house party will soon be
in full swing, the student will revel in festivities that will mark the
close of rnother collegiate yea'. Much depends upon the sane con
duction of this June party if the function is to surviNe
Too great an emphasis can not be laid upon the importance of
a satisfactory observance of the ;Maw user this week-e•id The
position in which house parties have been placed is a precarious one;
the teputatien at the function is rt stake and their favor lies in the
balance. It there should be the least undue strain placed upon the
thin thread which holds them frcm absolute abolition, they will fall
into the discard Unwholesome practices are not to be tolerated by
the College Ad•nmistrason, nor is there to be any prolongation of
the session The use of alcoholic beverages is a serious menace to
the consonance of the house party and above all is a practice to be
disapproved and stamped out when and where found
The undergraduates are opposed to drunkenness at social func
tions end,. left to themselves, will conduct their affairs without this
undesirable practice ci ming in Outside influences are the despots
that break up the harmony of student life at such times. It is the
duty of every undergraduate to quell and disperse such importations
of aucstionable character during the house party period.
The alumni are welcomed at this time, for it is fitting that they
pay respect to their college and that they meet and make merry with
the undergraduates They are welcome with a reminder as to what
is expected of every visitor at this institution• A new code of ethics
bids fair to be established at Penn State. Disrespect for the rights
of the student or the Administration will not be tolerated during the
house party session. All are expected to observe and maintain every
desire of the students to abolish anything that may jeopardize the
attitude toward house parties in the future. Let this be a time for
merriment; let there be fun galore, but keep the undesirable prac
tices out. To the house party then, and let joy be unconfined.

WHO IS GUILTY?
What amort man or men are responsible for the appearance of
the numerals on the Old Main tower and on the roof of the power
plant on College Avenue' , The painting of class numerals on any
other building e‘cept the Armory is entirely against student law, at
Penn State and the guilty parties, when found, should be punished to
the full e \ tent of that law. There is nothing but obscenity attending
the white '27 as it adorns the roof of the building that stands' so
prominently for all to view. There is a sense of deep desecration
accompanying the gilt '26 on Old Main. Whether the members of
these two classes in particular are guilty of these misdemeanors has
not been determined. Let the numerals be erased and the guilty
parties brought to light.
