THOUGHTS—AND QUESTIONS
The close ol a .semestei Inventory taking time What have
T accomplished’ What hate I gained 7 Am I doing anything
woithwhile’ Is mv college education paying for ilaelt/ And
himdiods ot similar thoughts float through the undergraduate’s,
biam as he looks back upon the icsults ot the past five months
It us the questioner asking himself lie questions evciylhmg
and GNCiybody He <iuestions the advisability of a college educa
tion. and blames his presence at an institution of higher Icm mug
to the existing social oidci. He discount, that he has not ob
tained a thing liom college, that his time has been wasted. But
his is a false disco\eiy. and he who questions is lost.
It is a common failing of youth to question o\eiything
Youth has often been letcircd to as the pessimistic age. and
rightly so. Old age comes soon enough, and that is the time
joi i diction and pci haps pessimism Fed up on the ecccn
tncities and philosophies ot human nature, youth looks aghast
at the woi Id. and maluwty is at hand befoie youth us awaie ot
the fact ’ t ,
Hundiedt- of reals ago, theic was a questionci who was
dissatisfied with the oidei of things He was old but wanted
voutb, and questioned the powci that had piovided for old age
He lett his nalire land to seaich tor lcncwcd youth and found
(feath instead _ ,
Evorvthing was piovided foi a definite purpose To question
existence and the pioducts oi existence is to find youiselt m a
muddled entanglement Instead ot questioning hie and its mol
nes conccnti ate on the thing at hand and i esoh e to do a good job
WHAT PRICE EDUCATION
E\civ yea* oi so some bald headed statistical! goes oft into
solitude and computes the pei capita cost ot educating college
students Sexeial months Intel the interested public learns, to
its clianuiv. that it is contributing many thousands of dollais an
nuallv to the cause ot highei education. The taxpayers \vondei il
the students aie paying then sh.ue oi it they aie whiling awav
tlie.i tune and the taxpayers money being “collegiate
But as the saying goes, ‘they don’t know the half of it
Only a week and a daj ot college has passed and the bank balance
in most cases has -hi unk to one or two unhealthy ftguies As each
dav goes along each professor tuo> to outdo the last in assigning
costlv text- It seems as though the met it ot the comse rises
with the puce ot the books Protessois who aie ciuel by natme
lead the list ot thice oi loui dollar volumes in cool, unemotional
tones The moie kindly ones hold up a .sample text and vow that
no student s librni y w ill .be complete without it.
The eia/c foi assigning books hoi.off the presses has takei
\W the fun out ol the second hand book tiaific Theic ik no use
recommending the com so you took last semcslet because the book
his piobablv been icwntlen during the vacation h\ cry college
graduate us bound to have a hbiary b.v the time that four yeais
have lolled bv because last semesters text goes into discau!
w ilh last semester's hat and its maiket value is ml. Being up to
dtte is a fine thing but the last woid m cvcrj bianch of learning
comes high—The Daily Californian
