For Campus Welfare
Originating at Lehigh University, and touching similar
institutions over the country, including Furman in South
Carolina, the movement to limit the number of offices a
man may undertake in his college career has becofne general.
There are three recognized improvements in the new
system, which cause its adoption. It prevents the "campus
boss" from getting so many offices that he can do full
justice to none of them; it allows others only a shade less
efficient and popular a chance to try their hand at extracurricular
activities; and it gives the "versatile leader" an
opportunity to peruse a textbook occasionally.
At Furman the activities are in three classes. When a
man's non-scholastic occupations total 35 points he may
not accept further responsibilities. The three classes are
based first upon the amount of time needed to perform
duties of each office, and secondly upon the importance
of the office. Class offices are in the third group, but
editorships and organizational presidencies occupying more
time come in group one and count many more points
toward the total.
Carolina could profit by an arrangement limiting the
number of offices held by an individual. With a student
body of 1.700, there should be half-dozen capable can- j
didates for every office. No man ought to have a monopoly
of prominent positions, however intelligent.
U.8.C.
Class Parasites
Class loyalty, never a thing worthy of second mention
on the Carolina campus, hit the depths last week.
A number of seniors, invited to be guests of the junior
class at a banquet and presented free tickets for it, sold
their complimentary tickets to juniors for half or onethird
price.
A number of juniors, instead of accepting the responsibility
of their class and co-operating with their class officers,
bought these tickets. They entered into dishonest
transactions to save fifty cents or so.
When seniors and juniors show no indication of better
manners, appear to possess no clearer ideas of fairness,
honesty, and obligation to their fellows, there has been a
mistake in allowing them to reach the two upper classes.
They are lacking in the essentials of decency.

who will prize them, but the key to the political situation
was most desired this week. Maybe it was on the "key"
ring!
