THE PENN STATE UNION
livaheapped fni several .eats because of the lack
of adequate housing facilities, Penn State will take
pi el iniinai y steps tonal d for matron of a student ae
bviticv tomou ow night when t ern eNentatives of
campus engem/atm, meet to plain the Mose
The venture is by no means a ne, one in collegiate
circles. A successful tom of student union has been
established at Hinton], Kansas uni‘essity, Ohio State,
Wisconsin, Minnesota, and Cornell, and at all these
st hoots has filled un obvious need in undergraduate life
Penn State scull be no exception for the impose of the
ninon, as outlined by a student-faculty committee bin
Neats ago, is "to ads once the interests of the component
groups in their smoal activities, to coordinate the ac-
tivities and inteteqts of the component moons to seine
n common policy and piogiam, to moonily projects and
accomplish objectises %shah component poops ought
properly undertake in union, but could not plopeilv un
dertake as mans idual groups"
The union so ill not interfere Is ith anv of the pi cent
student groups such as Student Council or W S` C A
but M ill be supplementaiv to these organizations One
athantage of such n Union is that proposed hp
it soill be likely to receive ualesinead student suppmt
as poetically ever' ) student will be a 'umbel of at least
one group reptesented in the organization.
A PSYCHIATRIST
The eta of personal education, along with the era
of personal Jour auburn, has apparently ceased to exist.
In its place has come in many American colleges and
universities, a purely mechanical method of teaching
Noon ledge is passed out much as if the college were a
huge minting press 'Much leaves its im p rint upon each
sheet of paper and deposits it in an mileilv bundle of
too handled sheets each.
.Each student is a sheet of nape, Upon hint the col
lege makes its Muiression and he is deposited in a guid
dating class, neatly tied and ready to be shipped to a
uhscilber. Auter that pat titular class has been slopped
assay, the college settles damn to in enlace methodically
anothei issue of ginduates No effort is made to tieat
each student as if he mdre an mihvidual—mentalls,
motally, and physically dilTeient flout every other stu
dent enrolled in that institution
'One influence shish has been intioduced into sonic
colleges to check this glowing educational tendency is
the psycluati ist, Analysis and i ectification of individual
pi oblems is his sole purpose among the students W hen
a student slums deficiency in his scholastic work it is
the business of the psycloatiist to uncover that paiticu
lai student's difficulty and to advise Ishatevei he thinks
hest for that individual
Perhaps the ionic presence of a piiychiatiist would
not abolish the evils of impelsonalmm altogethei It m
certainly not the ultimate which can be attained towaid
the personal goal in Ameucan colleges and universities.
Howevei, it is a step—a step winch Penn State has
not yet taken.
'HONORARIES?'
Fewer pledge libbons nestling in mood lapels testi
fy that Penn State's thilty-thiee honmary finternities
have nosily completed the yearly task of harvesting a
.1 110 U mop of initiates This also arouses conjectuie
as to whether these societies are worth the entiance
fee and if they occupy a useful place on the campus.
Undoubtedly some 110 while Just as surely the sole wroth
of ntheis 14 the key and the shingle
A number of the organizations pei form a valuable
service in securing prominent speakers and publishing
information booklets. Others have nothing to show. All
come in for a goodly share of criticism because of high
initiation fees and because a relatively small group
makes up the membeiship of the societies, some stu
dents belonging to three or four organizations But,
.even if a student gets nothing fm his entwine° fee, lie
still derives some please e from seeming 0 Fey and
sporting a shingle llonmary fiaternities ale merely
