OVERBURDENED .
CONSCIENCES
‘A freshman, questioned ~@s- to.
the most important Tule of selfs |
government, says it is that one
which vests power, in the execu-
tive board, “thus” relieving the
students as a whole from an un-)
due burden of responsibility.” |
Obviously she misunderstands the
idea of self-government; and yet
there might be something’‘to what
she" says. Our sense of responsi=
bility and ouf sense of honor
should not be restrained too far;
else they will be wéakened in all
their relationships. [t is not too
much to, put us on’ our honor to
keep the rules of self-government

ONE ASPECT OF. ~
In-many celleges time, energy,
land even ‘some money, is spent
for the purpose of marking: off a
part of. the undergraduate © body
as freshmen. ‘ At the University
of Nebraska, for example,* the
entering Class is: made to wear
green caps in order to“ ‘maintain
a class unity. and develop a true.

| NeBraska spirit.” At Bryn Mawr,

on the other.hand, there is less

and less class unity, fewer ahd,

fewer class distinctions each year.
Freshman Week has done much
to accomplish this. -Before it was

established;-when~all-classes—re-|

turned to college ‘simultaneously,
the freshmen hung together in
self defense menaced by hordes
of upperclassmen, They had to
hold on to soniething. Now, for
almost a week they have the col-

lege quite to themselves, and
there is no necessity for. their
holding’ together. _ And by the

ume the upperclassmen have re-
turned they are entirely at home,
any possible.,defensive attitude
gone. Aside from an increased
efficiency, Freshman Week
accomplished something funda-

mental..for college life in helping |

to abolish class diatincHons,
