College Man C< To Ma _ Called More Mature Say Collegians Havo More Opportunity For Social Contacts Than Others I lave you, John Collegian, ever won- { tiered what the Columbia college girl you had the date with last night, or the co- B ed you had one with Saturday night, really thought of you? Have you ever stopped to think how you compared with a non-college man of your same age, who was out in the business world ? P1 And have you, Betty Co-ed, ever re- ^ fleeted on which was more mature in a purely social way, the business man or ^ the college man? ,s Twenty college women and six men c; almost unanimously agreed when asked Wednesday, "Is the college man or the business man of the same age more ma- P' ture in a social way?" that the college w man had the advantage. . k' "Social" here was explained as be- ' *' ing his contacts with people, not merely his conduct at a dance or on a private ,s date. Even a Columbia college girl, we'll wager, would not tolerate a man '* who did not know how to act on a date, aI but we wondered which of the two classes was more mature. So we asked. ^ Some of the more interesting com- sc ments, together with the people who ol furnished them, were the following: 't LaVerne Hughes: "Certainly the col- ^ lege man is more mature. He has more P' learning of various and sundry sorts." M. T. Pitts: "Yes, the college man is w more mature, mainly because of his as- S sociation with more socially-minded peo- N pie." at /ftinie Maude Huiet: "The college st man is more mature because he has had n< more experience with socially-minded people." X Mildred Brown: "I think the non- ?j college man is more mature because he has to make a living. College men are not sophisticated because college makes C; them realize how little they know." at! Helen Wingard: "Non-college men la usually have an inferiority complex." w Scruggs Hope: "All the college man w< does is to go to dances and such stuff. He takes advantage of all the social op- cj( portunities presented to him, and has nc a better fund of general knowledge than s< the non-college man. Therefore he is more mature. He also meets new pco- ?j pie every day and therefore gets along better with them. Alice Huiet: "I think non-college men are more mature and serious than col- til legians." pi Gertrude McDonald: "The college 01 man is more mature because he burns ca more midnight oil than the non-college R. man." "Windy" Robinson : "The college man ,ir is more mature. He has more opportu- (jj nities for social contacts in one day in jj college than the non-college man has in r a week." ?| Miscellaneous comments included the c.( following: .? "College men are not gold-digged as much as non-college ones." "College helps anyone in a social way." ,. "College is little more than a prep school for the social butterfly." "Non-college men are not as matured socially because they don't go out every * night, as college men usually do." _ Pre-Med Students To <-> Take Aptitude Exams \\ All students who plan to enter any med- ai ical college next fall must take the As- ~~ sociation of American Medical Colleges aptitude test to be given December 7, according to an announcement made by Professor G.
