A New University America is living in a new age. New customs, new morals, and new habits, necking included and one of the foremost, have become ser Up) for the youth and rising generations to abide by. It is not evident that all our customs will be set up and remain for rising generations to adlopt. No, that would never (do; they w'll have new andI more ridiculous customs to abide andI teach thei: children. Indeed, America is rising to a greater and faster cuts tonms and habits but, for sonme reason or other, her col leges, universities and public schools are dlragging along behind. It shouldj be the schools that set the pace for the other institutions to follow and abide by. One of the foremost needs oaf A .merican schools, ....: versities especially, is the adoption of more varied and less strenuous curriculums. Those at present are en tirely too expensive and overbearing on the students that must meet their requirements. Let us look for a moment at some of the changes that could be made. First of all, there could be millions and millions of dollars saved if universities and colleges would accept the socialized recitation plan. By this plan no' professors or instructors would be needed. The students would con duct the classes themselves. Each day, let us say, a cer tain number of the class would conduct the recitation. This is all the students in charge would have to do. No textbooks would be used. The members of the class would discuss any topic that they wished. Why not? Professors generally do. They do not use z-iy text book nor even outline the topics to be distussed for the day. This new socialized recitation then would be something similar to the old plan with the exception of the hired professor who must have his necessary pay at the end of each month. In this way it would be econo mical. Cliss attendance would be voluntary. There would be no need for a roll call to check up on students to see if they are present or absent since students never cut a class unless they absolutely have to or are sick. All students would be on their honor to attend classes, and, being thus on their honor, they would never cut a class, because all students are one hundred per cent honest at all times Since there would be no absences to turn in to the regi strar could be easily eliminated from the campus of any college or univers:ty. The question of finances is one of the foremost prob lems of the (lay. Then, why could we not institute the socialized lesson and student conduct plan and eliminate the great expense of our schools?
