NOT SO TX£T. iPlu* faculty of the University this year, as perhaps all of tisJfite aware, have commenced a general program, of tighten-. upon student. outside work iu an endeavor to raise the a«£ftjK$tio. standing of the University. Elements in the fac Hltybody favor seemingly, no outside work whatever outside of clfcss preparation. The entire faculty have registered them Strongly against anything but strictly honest class And the University as a whole has commenced a cam 4*^,to increase the face value of a University degree. P The faculty have gone ahead with their betterment move ment, ’regardless of whatever student opinion maght be op osed to them. For this they are to be admired. They hold le ultimate ambition of placing a degree from the University Oregon on a par with that of the highest educational in itUtion of its class in the country. In attaining this goal, the heart of every loyal student of the University is with them, j ■l: But the members of* the faculty must be made to realize touch a goal cannot be realized in a short time. If the stttflfiients of the shortcomings of the Univedsity as given re cently by. the new dean of the college of literature, science and the arts are true, it may take several years to reach the. high prole Oregon has set for itself. r In working towards its goal, the University must remem ber .that a ton-sudden change is likely to work more harm thhn good. The ideal way to accomplish the desired end is to have hearty co-operation between the faculty and the stu dent body. This will never be attained when the students atoe compelled to bow down to new rules and regulations to wliich they are unaccustomed, and to old orders and restric tions that have never been strongly enforced. •>,Tho student body undoubtedly believes that the scholastic Standard of the University is safe in the hands of the present Tjoctilty. In undoubtedly is willing to be led in the right direc tion, but, it undoubtedly will refuse to be driven. Penalties hmeadv inflicted by the faculty committees on discipline, pro putioo, posts and other affairs relating to student seholar ahip indicate that the latter attitude has been taken by the faculty. The penalties inflicted dunng the war were probably loo lenient. Butfhe general “tightening up” this year has'Cm le about too quickly, and there is already considerable saide (it v^edtunent against, such a quick change. The “tightening up” improbably needed here at Oregon, but it should come about fnoro 'gradually. Due notice should be served of all mutters rot- which penalties will be inflicted. And the penalties in fhctld at present should not be so radically different from those of previous years as to cause objection. Oregon doesn’t want a faculty which it fears. It wants a •faculty in which it believes, and which it is willing to follow. ■A policy of a more gradual change to better things should be the policy of the University faculty.
