'We Hail Thee', Or Is It Worth 4The Trouble Much has been written on the joys and desirability of being a co ed, but sometimes the girls of Caro lina wonder. Yes, they know that they are lucky to attend school at a University, the center of state life and activity, a school liberal In its rules and regulations, and posses sing a campus swarming with boys, but sometimes the question is "Is It worth the trouble?" Take the part of attending a Uni versity. Years ago, only the few bravest souls were able to persuade their parents that they should go to a school made up almost entirely of boys. That took "nerve" In those * days to face such a campus, and perhaps the attitude has not changed. Many are the protests of parents who say that their darlings will not learn a thing when they are surrounded by the male element, and varied are the answers of their daughters who promies anything from making straight A's to com Ing home to the fold every weekend as long as they are allowed to attend Carolina. Strangely enough, most of the girls win out, and the co-eds have a firm hold on the campus. And the rules. Everyone knows how Carolina co-eds gloat over their f less fortunate sisters at girls schools whose gaities are limited to week ends or strictly chaperoned dates. They say that they are used to boys, and they are. But this is definitely detrimental to men. Gone is most of the glamour and attitude of super iority of those dear creatures with the constant companionship of fe. males. llow can a man look super iorly at. a girl who has ijust maide i higher mark than he has in phy sics, or has been elected vice-pres -ident of the studeit body? What do the co-eds think of the swarms of men? They appreciate o them, of roiurse. Life is much nicer when youi have a strong arm to rar ry your books across the campus, or someone to ring the buzzer of Sims every night folr you, but they are a lot of trouble. While they are do ing their gloating over the girls schools, they are also a little en vious. The girl at school who is only surroimided by oteirp females may appear without make-ip and in com fortable slouchy clofics; she may even wear slacks to class, and lounge around witlioit file fear that her favorite m mamay catch her in Pn undignified pose. Life would he much more simple, they think, if they did not have to worry about those men. Spring Issue of Salvo Off Press ; Edited FNy fect-IR-l Swoosh!! Sana-y, where does lie ) think lie's going?.
