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." _
