Concentration of Work is Key
Wander over the campus, and in the
course of your perogrinations, turn
in back of Friendly hall, and watch
the bakery wagons drive up some fine
morning and deliver bread to the back
door of the men’s dormitory. The
automobile stops, the driver gets out
and carries a basket full of brown
liaves to the door—there you have the
pi^ure.
How many times have we seen that
same sort of a picture, labelled, “De
livering Bread to the Back Door of
Christ Church College Oxford,” or
Blankety-Blank Hall at Tiddilty-Winks
University, or any other such famous
institution? You know the sort, gen
erally a fine etching, signed in the
lower left hand corner with the name
of the artist, and bound into a fine
book, mounted on a cardboard insert,
with a tissue paper fly-leaf for protec
tion. Something of much the same
sort was presented in the campus draw
ings in last year’s Oregana.
An astonishing thesis has been ad
vanced, that when an artist can “put
over” a pictur of a Eugene bakeryman
delivering bread to the back door of
Friendly hall, that then the University
of Oregon will be greatl When the
name of the University has become so
great and so well known that its repu
tation will “carry” such a picture,
even by an obscure artist, then the Uni
versity stands at the open door of
opportunity. ,
But what is the quickest way in
which the University of Oregon may
arrive at greatness? How can those
who have and those who are now at
tending the University aid in the de
velopment of this greatness? How
can the members of the faculty con
tribute to the University’s reputation?
Mere buildings and equipment will not
achieve fame of honest merit for the
University of Orogon. Wo are cramped
for room now, and the geology depart
ment occupies the former post-office
of the campus, reminiscent of the days
when our ancestors chiseled their cor
respondence on slabs of stone.
Mere resources then, unsupported by
something else, will not do. Many a
minor institution in the country po
sossos the acme of equipment, but not
♦ he essential elements of greatness.
How then is it? Th same problem is
faced by every individual, and is paral
leled in every ease of the proverbial
rich man’s son. He has everything
that he desires from the electric, train
of cars of his childhood to the natty
run-about roadster of his young man
hood. Such a youth all to frequently
finds himself, possessed of possessions
alone, but the spirit, alas, is lacking.
liv their fruits shall ye know them,
says a prominent faculty member of
the University. “A University or col
lege, may attain to greatness by the
concerted action of its sons to attain
individual greatness. To live truly to
the best that is in one, in sum ag
gregate, equals a University which
lives up to the bst that is in as a whole,
and that alone constitutes greatness
according to our modern philosophers.
In our modern stenographic language,
■'•Shakespeare was right, kid, when he
said, above all to hang onto yourself,
and then you won’t run off with auy
man’s purse."'
And so, though money ami equipment
in a University may be assets to in
creased efficiency of work, yet they
are not, and must never be considered,
if the University would attain to and
maintain greatness, the main thing.
“Let it first bp accepted as a work
ing hypothesis, that it' the University
is to forgo aht'titl, it must be by the
concerted work of students will fac
ulty, and with alumni, and that though
their individual work for the Univer
sity may differ, yet still they must
meet upon some common ground. Grant
ing this then, the common ground must
be their effort truly to the best that
is in their individual selves, ISo speaks
a prominent faculty member. He con
tinues :
“Let the alumnus, in his own com
munity, add to the reputation of the
l niverslt.v ot Oregon by the outstand
ing strength of his character. Let him
so act as to lie a leadr in his commuuitv
rather than to seek fame and money
for their sake alone,
"Let the faculty member, the teacher
of youth, do his share by adding to
the sum of human knowledge, both in
the classroom, and in the research
laboratory . ”
