gated" housing arrangement is
the almost complete lack of con-
tact except on the most super-
ficial and casual basis of Jew and
Gentile.
With very few exceptions, and
these are mainly among the in-
tellectual group and the persons
highly active in campus affairs.
the average Jewish student knows
no non-Jews. He may make cas-
ual friends in classes with non-
Jews, but there is virtually no
carryover outside the classroom.

Jewish College Student
Has No Cause to 'Cry'
By DIANE DIAMOND
THE JEWISH STUDENT on the
campus of a mid-western uni-
versity is not easily distinguished
from his Gentile neighbors.
He studies the same subjects
for the most part. His social life
follows the pattern laid down by
the majority. He participates to
a full extent in the extra-cur-
ricular activity of the campus.
He does not display feats of bril-
liance in the classroom or on the
basketball court to a greater de-
gree than anyone else, nor is he
left behind in the race for recog-
nition.
He is generally a fully partici-
pating member of the campus
community, depending, as in the
case of his gentile fellow student,
on his personality, brains and de-
sire for advancement.
The fact that he is a Jew plays
a small role in his integration
into community life. The role
that his Jewishness plays is an
internal one—that is, the fact of
Jewishness determines his atti-
tudes toward non-Jews; it tells
him to a large degree where he
may live, and with whom he can
mingle socially.

WITH OTHER JEWS'
THE AVERAGE JEW on this
campus will live for the greater
part of his college career only
with other Jews. If he is a man,
he will live in a fraternity house
with other Jelvs. Non-Jewish
fraternities will not admit him
to their membership even' if he
should desire it.
He may live in a university
dormitory, which by definition

tinned situation, certain obvious
facts arise. The first one is that
social life for the Jewish student
revolves primarily around other
Jewish students, and more spe-
cifically, around the organized
houses and fraternities. The in-
ternal structure of this social life
is barely distinguishable from
that of its Gentile counterparts.

has a small number of Jews in it
because it is restricted to stu-
dents from the state in which the
campus is located. This state has
a small Jewish population. If he
lives in a dorm, his roommate, 'CONTACT' NEGLIGIBLE
A RESULT OF this "segre-
in all likelihood, will be Jewish.
If he lives neither in a dorm
nor a fraternity house, he will
live in a boarding house which
may or may not be mixed. If the
Jewish student is a woman, she
will, in nine cases out of 10, live
in an all Jewish "organized
house," subject to university reg-
ulations, but run by private
householders. On this particular
campus, approximately 500 Jew-
ish women live in such houses.
Dorm facilities for women are
similarly limited as for men.

ROSH HASHONAH
GREETINGS
As a result, the existence of
the typical Jewish student on this
midwest campus is almost ghetto-
ized. He lives, eats and sleeps,.
and walks to class only with Jews.
The exception is the student
who has an equal number of
friends drawn from all groups,
who has social contact with a
diverse group of people, and who
has close friends outside of his
living quarters.
The exceptional student will
take an active part in campus
affairs. But this group is small,
—as it is in the general com-
munity.
