Council Meeting Delayed
The meeting of the executive
council at which the director of the
Oregon Federation was to be chos
en was postponed from Wednesday
to Tuesday, April 24. The job in
volves contact work with high
school graduates, and since much
of this work is done through the
alumni office, Miss Doris Hack,
acting alumni secretary, will
attend the meeting to help con
sider petitions.

campus are the important things
which will stick with you in the
years after you graduate,” he said.
“If you slide through school now
and try to get by with as little
work as possible, you will have to
overcome those undesirable habits
when you enter the business and
professional world.”
The radio man pointed out that
knowledge and training gained
through college experience is trans
ferred to post-graduation life. He
cited the example of rushing: ‘‘You
try to sell your sorority to the
rushee,” he said, “and the same
principle works later in business—
you try to sell life insurance or
advertising ot what have you.”
Abbott advocates the acquisition
of a well-rounded education. “De
velop the ability to do more than
is required,” he suggested. “Form
the habit of an inquisitive mind;
dig for detail, follow through on
all the angles; get the habit of
applying yourself.”
“However,” Abbott believes,” the
person who has not engaged in
student body activities will leave
the University with his education
only partly completed. Everyone
should participate in extra-curricu
lar work, but activities should not
be allowed such prominence in your
schedule that they become the tail
that wags the dog.”
Learn Leadership
It is through activities that the
student learns leadership, how to
get along with people, to develop
his personality to the greatest ex
tent possible, the former news
paperman continued.
In college the student prepares
for business or professional life
which, after graduation, usually
proves to be only a continuation of
skills acquired while in school.
When the individual participates in
activites which relate to his chosen
field, he is already putting into
practice what is being learned in
the classroom. In this way, Abbott
emphasized, the student is making
himself ready to start out in pro
fessional life immediately upon
graduation.
Going Up
The logic of this argument be
came clear when Abbott revealed
that he had worked as a reporter
on the Eugene Register, daily
morning newspaper, during his
years at the University and also
served as campus correspondent
for the Oregon Journal. With this
background, his record of activ
ities, and his Emerald work, Ab
bott went into professional news
paperwork immediately after the
tassel-tossing ceremony, and now,
-a 1 promotion chief, is still
on tii>- load going up.
