We have been wondering lately
how much longer coeds will be able
to stand the pace of living, which
has been set by the three-semester
basis, defense activities, and the
usual Spring rush..
We wonder, too, if things like
physical, mental, and psychologi
cal breakdowns will become reali
ties, rather than case histories
studied in psych courses.
We are the generation who is
paying the biggest price for the
second World War. We like to keep
busy, but things are moving too
fast.
Innumerable women on this
campus dash frenziedly to classes,
to meetings, to defense courses, to
dances, to initiations, to banquets.
They do their jobs conscientiously
and -with no complaining. We com
mend their attitude but question
'their common sense.
Organization is a good thing—to
a certain point. We feel the point
has been reached, in women’s ac
tivities, at least, where things are
over-organized.
Present coeds are sacrificing
health, sleep, and all leisure time
to adhel’e to a system inaugurated
by women who went to College for
four years instead of two and a
half or three.
We urge coed leaders ' to slow
down—to omit a few banquets,
coffee hours, and business meet
ings.
We urge WSGA Senate to check
up on the forgotten point system.
Because it has not been effective
long enough to judge it fairly, we
are withholding comment on the
system itself. We are, however,
suggesting that the quotas based on
reports from last year’s coed lead
ers, governing the number of ac
tivities coeds may carry, be lower
ed.
In other woi-ds, let’s start taking
it a little easier because the “Big
Boys” tell us it’s going to be a long,
hard war.
