Member of Eastern Intercollegiate Newspaper Association Now s Editoi this Issue TUESDAY, MARCH IG, 1926 PENN STATE, WHAT HAVE YOU? “Ami Uic old shall make way lor the new” As tins issue goes to pi css, another COLLEGIAN boaul will have passed on. and a new gioup, bringing with it the ficsh blood of anothei stud ent geneiation lakes up the loins. New blood—that will begin with a feiouousness that is alarming and end with a “What the Hell can we do’” attitude that is little shoit of pathetic. Wc speak Irom expcilente—we have gone thiough it. As we sit down to write our larewell editorial, theie i» no pang ot legiet, no small voice that speaks of the depaiture ot a once gieat power, no lemoise There is only that mdescnbable feeling that echoes the helplessness which we know has been ouis loi the past year. Not helplessness, perhaps, just uselessness. Not uselessness in the sense that we have been useless, but uselessness in the sense that we arc peihaps listened to. laughed at and let alone. And wiseacres w’dl leclinc and exclaim, “Ah* Youth again is crying iorth like the beaten dog because it has not been heeded, because its advice has been ignored ” Yes, we arc civing out, not like a beaten dog. however, but like a penned-up bud that visual izes the beauty that might enhance its surroundings once it would be heaid. Perhaps we aie patting ouiselves on the back, but one knows that the day dream of every laborei is that someday the multitude will Ifovv at his feet Duiing the past yeai, we have not attempted to be the voice of the undergxaduates, we have tued to be the undergiaduates. We have been accused ot being too conseivative, we have been accused ot being too ladical. When we have found a friend, we have at the same time gained an enemv. But one is always bcttci than neither Oux limits have been mu lowed Always, we could not ex press sentiments which we felt should be e.xpi*essed And when wc did find something which should be attacked, the object oi the attack was too deeply intrenched to cieate even a ripple. We re lei now to the CompuKoiy Chapel situation. We wexc pionused an investigation committee ttorn the Boaid of Tiustees We aic still waiting' It the Administration feels that the undeigiaduate must have chapel, then the undeigiaduate must have it But wc must admit that it is a disillusionment to know that one comes to college to find out vv hat is best foi himselt. and then K not given the oppoi limit} to excicise that judgment and initiative which ho has acquned How many times has the 1925-26 boaul consideied condi tions’ Hundieds, to be suic There aie slipshod methods here, thci e are lundei gai ten tactics thex c; there are political influences. theie axe evils m oui athletics, there is no standardization an>- vvhexc Evexywhere, theie aie conditions to be betteied. But they must wait, wait until someone other than us makes the plea, loi about “these things” vv e -must xemam silent “for the best in terests,©!'the College/’* ' ,{ 4 So we leave, leave with the hope that the 1926-27 board will not svvoivc Irom its com.se We leave with the hope that it will accomplish something vvhcie we failed. We leave with the hope that tne College will come down and be with, instead ot against. We leave with the hope that Penn State may always have leason to lemcmber the incoming COLLEGIAN board. We leave—we leave nothing And in conclusion, wc quote tiom the Yale Daily News: “Fionx now on the anger ot the gods that be will find us dumb as well as cleat The Junior Class assumes the offensive and delen si\c . . . .It the giving oi advice wexc not paternalistic in a man ual moie tjpical ot the College policy than the undergiaduates, we would wag otii giav beards grown long in seivicc, and say to our successors that gods arc not at then best when overfed and slum -Ikm mg, that thev should never be left to feast too long unquestion ed and unmolested, that they would probably xesent the lack of attention, and certainly suffer from it.” GENESIS We herald with joy unbounded an answer to our editoual “Who Is To Blame >” We cried tor a university attitude on the pait ol faculty and students of Pdnn State—a getting away fiom the meekness of the students m following the outlined com.sex ot credit only, and the unbending faculty m then year-in, year-out loutme To oui eais comes the news that a group of students who pass most of then time on Ag Hill has petitioned Dean Watts to install a course in Rural Law : a couise which has never been taught at Penn State and w Inch, therefore, had never been lusted in the cata log. Dean Watts found time enough to considei the petition and gianted the icquest without the slightest compunction, in tact, he was gieatly pleased. The course, which us start Wednesday, h.ul no instiuctoi\ Mi A. R. Warnock, Dean of Men, and a prac ticing lawyei before coming to Penn'State, volunteered to conduct the classes No ciedit will be listed toi the couise since it will not have been given for the entire semester. And therein lies the point. The classroom will bo full of students who have elected to take this course without credit. The com se vv ill be cai ned on by a busy man who hap volunteered to aid the students—to aid Penn State in its campaign for a university attitude To all those concerned, our best wishes and thanks.
