FRIDAY, MAY 1, 1931
The Bull Dog of the Citadel bemoans the faet that its material is
censored. Tiik Gamkcock is free of faculty censorship but not of
student criticism. All of which is gladly received.
One of the city papers declared that the May Queen is a member
of Kappa Sigma fraternity. It's evidently a mistake, but possibly that's
the way fraternities insure attendance at meetings.
And, as Mutt says, "A happily married pair can be divided into
two parts?she's happy and he's married.'' So can a good-looking
couple?she furnishes the good looks and he furnishes the couple.
The literary societies have turned over a new leaf. On the same
night the Clariosophics* elected its president unanimously and the Kuphradians
had a full, program. They are going to rival the Federation
. of Women Students yet.
Darn it. the editor certainly had hard luck. Me left his personal
typewriter in the office and somebody, probably thinking that it was
the paper's permanently (at least it seems permanent) borrowed the
machine. Looks like they would have at least had judgment enough to
swipe the best one lying around.
COMMON DECENCY '
Many things are needed on the campus, but none so badly as a
spirit of honesty and fair play, among the students. The term "college
spirit" has fallen into disrepute, and at present means little or nothing.
But a group of men and women ostensibly engaged in the pursuit of
education should at least show some common decency in their relations
with one another.
It is well enough to be optimistic, and nobody likes a crank, but at
the same time it is bad to play ostrich and solve problems by pretending
that they don't exist. The student body is faced with two problems which
demand soluation: stealing, and crude political methods.
The former should not exist on any campus under any circumstances.
A starving man who steals a loaf of bread may be pardoned; a
college student who steals a typewriter, or a raincoat, or a microscope,
may not be pardoned. The building up of enough feeling to make for
social ostracism of such offenders would go a long way toward remedying
the situation.
The political methods employed in campus elections have become a
source of annoyance to all voters, and are coming to be recognized as a
public nuisance. The politiekers evince little concern as to whether or
not their candidates are suited for office. Perhaps when the situation gets
so bad that it is positively putrid students will begin to think about it
more seriously.
THE OLD ORDER CHANGES
The second issue of the new Carolinian is off the press, and the
comments on the campus would indicate that it is much more popular
than the old model.
It was a reasonable and needed change, the faculty and a small group
of students notwithstanding. The old edition was read by few and written
by fewer; it was the organ not of the student body, but of a limited
clique of would-be literary artists whose contributions were neither
understood nor appreciated bv the large body of students.
In any group of people there is always an element that opposes
everything new simply because it is new, and another element who would
destroy everything old simply because it is old. But many students, while
welcoming the new Carolinian, are sorry to see the old one go; not for
sentimental reasons, but because it represented the best, literary talent
on the campus. An effort is being made to revive it. Are there sufficient
students to make possible a purely literary magazine in addition to the
more popular Carolinian?
| NEEDLESS DELAY
According to the student body constitution, presidents of the three
rising upper classes and a man and a woman from each of these classes
compose a nominating committee to nominate the members of hext year's
honor committee. This committee is supposed to meet three weeks before
the members are to be elected and the election is scheduled to take place
the first week in May. This nominating committee has yet to meet, and
this is a direct violation of the constitution.
Furthermore the two delegates to the committee from the freshman,
or rather the rising sophomore, class have not even been elected and according
to the constitution the delegates are to be elected at the same time
the regular class officers are elected. Who should get the blame for this
deplorable condition? The freshman class president can hardly be blamed
for a condition about which he could have known little.
The honor committee has not functioned this year or rather has not
had t(# function very much. However, the honor committee still exists and
members have to be elected to it for next year. The date of meeting of the
nominating committee is now two weeks late. The election of new members
must take place next week. The most pressing need at this time is
to elect the freshmen delegates which" should be attended to at once.
Then comes the nomination of the members of the honor committee and
then the election.
