PAGE TWO Liberal Arts Salaries The 'Committee on Liberal Arts Education in The Post-War Period has recently published a re port on the various aspects which affect the cali bre of the Liberal Arts education. Included in this report is factual matter concerning the ap pointment, prometien, tenure and salary Of teach ❑rs in th'e school of Liberal Arts. Foil()Wing is their interpretation of the salary. :sales: • 1. In 1927-23 the average salaries for the vari ous ranks in . the School of Liberal Arts were low 7 er than those in alt of the individual Schools of the College for every rank except two: Heads of ?Departments and, Professors. 12.1 n 1942-43, fifteen years later, the .average salaries in the School of the Liberal Arts were lower than those in all of the individual Schools of the College for every .rank .except one:. Heads of Departments: and that furthermore, in, 1937- It 3 and 1942-43, respectively ten and fifteen years later, the average salaries in the School were low er than those in the College as a whole for all 3. Upon examination of .the period of fifteen years between 1927-28 and 1942-43, although this period was one of great economic instability, the following changes had, occured in the average r:alaries for the various ranks in the School .of Liberal Mts. Heads of Departments . . +264 Professors —124. +3OB + 55 +203 . 4. Finally, in 1942-43 the average salaries for the various ranks of the School of the . Liberal Arts • varied from the highest. and lowest. average salaries for the corresponhing ranks,found,aniong the other Schools taken individually as follows: Hightist ; Lowest 558 + 25 —1938 , —338 486 —243 682 24 613 —252 Associate Professors Assistant Professors Instructors Heads of Departments Professors Associate Professors Assistant Professors Instructors Polite Society✓ Says The Interfraternity Dating Code, according to its preamble, attempts, to give social fraternities the same privileges as those accepted by the con ventions of polite society. Article 6 of thi s code, however, .states that "no alcoholic beverages shall be served at any time when women are present." This . dating code may have been acceptable when it was originated, in 1942, but. the Col'ege has changed in the past four years and the MC code has failed to change with it. Women's regul•ations, tco, forbid drinking. ,But the. Judicial record. shows that some coeds, have ibeen ignoring the regulations. Young people of college calibre• are expected to have adult intelligence; they are expected to know lioW to conduct themselves socially. Cornell Uni versity has accepted this fact, and serves beer to students in its Student Union. But Penn State co-. eds - are not permitted to drink, even in the com pany of chaperones. (Collegian suggests that the Student Welfare Committee, which controls the, no-drinking ru:es, change its outlook. Why not consider college stud ents, as . adults, and . . permit chaperoned mixed- . drinking? Modern "polite society" would. approve. THE COLLEGIAN "For A •Better Penn State.
