' ' Pity the poor student. He toils not, neither does he spin, says President Lowell of Harvard university, but of all the human classes he is the most vilified, condemned, depreciated, and denounced. The way the college man is talked -about sometimes one would think he had no friend in the world and that of all his enemies he himself is the worst. . ' ' ' In an address before the Association of American Uni versities President Lowell adjudged the college student "a sluggard, a doltish creature, who must be pushed into proper courses of learning and held there, else he will' elect the less difficult courses and pass through four years of collegiate work with a minimum amount of mental ef fort." And in the same day's news another educator ap plied such alien and unspeakable terms as "radical, emo tional and inflammable" to the American undergraduate, to which a third degree-toter replied in no more compli mentary terms that the college student is none of these, but is "indifferent to political problems and not susceptible to suggestion." As to the charge that the student is doltish and a slug gard, the majority of them are and admit it withWTtliame. In doing so they are merely more open and frank than the rest of us. It's-true that the average college student tries to select as easy and pleasant a way through his four years ns is possible-r-but does the average graduate or the aver ago man or woman who hasn't gone to college do much differently? Where is there a majority of citizens who seek always the hardest way, the most difficult job? Who is it that selects the most trying conditions under which to labor in preference to the most pleasant conditions? Where can we find the man who, in his school . days', se lected 'the most difficult studies and devoted his whole time to thorn for the sake of mental development and future agility of mind? . Is there a larger percentage or time-wasters and dul lards in the colleges and universities than in the offices, factories, professions, on the faim and in business? Not every man and Woman in an institution or learning' is a student in the sense of being devoted to learning. In every line of business and industry and in every occupation nnd profession there are self-made successes and self-made failures. One of the deplorable conditions of our colleges today is that they are filled to over-flowing with average, ordinary people while many of 'the minority who might make more of the opportunity are prevented from doing so. lint it is a condition that is not peculiar to the colleges of the country. College students may not be the hard, serious workers that some college presidents would have them be, but we imagine the same might be said of the majority of the bends of our institutions of higher learning. Perhaps they might work harder. That a majority of them do not is due merely to the fact that mot of our college presidents, like most of our students and most of our citizens, are just average. And it takes a lot of average people to make up a world. RABBiT-NO'LI. -'-;. HAME TO? F-'.t j I i A HOLE FO ' 'v'.- vNO SEFF - Dl'V.'l - v-'' I nER AM MiUE..V.-V' '. . . , t . Il I ill .
