Bell Monday, September 22,194'1 k Restatement Of, EdiforiarPOliCyr With another freshman class entering Penn State,; the senior board' of The Daily Collegian' believes , that its editbrial policy." should again be preseuted. to introduce: it attitude on camplis and' national problems .to those who are not acquainted with • its editorial' stand. . Never since the eve Arnerie.an participation in the. World War I:- has Ithe carnptis been , hit' bye. uncertainty and. a doubtful future for . college students..,' Never haVe , so- many students' been living on borrovied time as in this' war=titrie era. The: Pretence of this' World?.. crisis has reached IMO the - life of - ,every Peni 'State ;:tuderit and may threaten tb change the aspeCt of student • thought: arid abttini. . What was wrong yesterday is right today.,. and What- is right today may be wrong tomorrow. With thth situation in. mind, we repeat the words which made - our editorial debut: '"What• shall be the editorial policy of The Daily-Collegian? Shall we take a stand upon the national and international Situation which con cerns each one of - us? Shall we cleterinine who is right and:who is wrong? Shall we blaspheme and cdtidtict• carnpaigns- against -the inner factions of national and economic groups fbr their guiding the world: of today?' "Our answer must be no. We cannot mop up • the international wranglings or compete : ayith experts who differ on many 'major 'political pi:Ants in attempting" to solve the economic or PolitiCal probbris , which•puzzle us. "Temporary campaigns , and issues, which are set up as a standard bearer, soon fade and dis appear Under the forever changing conditions of the present • day. We cannot pledge to support something which has lost its savor or will be out moded' tomorrow. Rather, we must• choose a more consistent scope. Our editorial policy must be flexible and unlimited enough to permit us to make deciSions as situations change and issues about fate. It cannot be confined. . ."Thus, deserting the traditional platform of the past, we simply assert, 'The Daily Collegian will repreSent . the voice of the student. 'R'ealiting our limitations, but upholding our right of critical opinion,. we will fearlessly and frankly discuss those issues which bear upon stadents as stud ents.' `Out' of our backyard of campus relationships and contacts, we intend to interpret; express, and lead student thought' along avenues which hub on student interest, _activity,. and future. If we be lieve we are right, we will hit hard. If we are wrong,. we will admit our error. Our mistakes may be plenty, our policies varied, but we will be consistent in one thing: we Will present a stud ent outloOk with no attempt to outguess . the -ex perts. They do enough guessing themselves. "Prompted by the , present Uncertainty and bound by a dark future, we will consider it• our dtity to analyze a little more judiciously,.dare to do with a bit more imaginaAion, and look to the future with a little more youthful enthusiasm. ."What shall we praise tomorrow? What shall we attack? What side shall we take? We don't know! But one thing is certain. Dispelling the adage that a new broom sweeps clean, we will cling to a Simple action-provoking keynote adopt ed last year. It asserts, Tor A Better Penn State.'
