THE REAL IDEA OF COLLEGE How many in the outside world :now university life as it really is? f one were to get his idea of college alone from stories, or more particular- y from the motion picture how near he actual truth would it be? The ,moving picture college always as a beautiful campus, through which eantifully dressed girls walk with aultlessly dressed men-the latter us- ally In white trousers, dark coats, nd straw hats. A college man's oom, in a picture, is beautifully furn- shed, with pennants from every other ollege around the walls, and quanti- lea of sofa pillows strewn about in rtistic carelessness. The short story college is exactly the ame. It is a place full of romance, vhere young people come to have a :ood time, sing their college songs, accompaned by the mandolin-was here ever a college hero in a short tory who gould not play the mando- in?-and who generally enjoy them- elves and have many reminiscences o talk over in their later days. There Is no doubt that this view of iniversity life is widely held, and there s equally no doubt that it does a reat deal of harm. Parents think hat four years of college, such as they, ee, is a waste of time. It is perhaps tl right for a rich man's son or aughter, who can afford to have a ood time, but for people who have heir own way to make in the world, ,nd that as soon as possible, it would ot do. They do not understand, nor s it ever explained to them in plausi- le form, that university training will elp their children in their life work, hat more than anything else it will Ove them a foundation and Lack- round for their future calling. Why does not some author write of ollege life as it really is? Why do not he motion picture directors, who are sually so particular as to their de- ails, give a picture of the serious, the. eal side of college? Has a lecture oom, a laboratory, a library scene, or ny other scene that shows the stu- lent at his work, ever been reproduc- d on the screen? Thinking people have come to re- :ard the college-trained student as the Lighest type of citizen. Fiction writers ,nd play producers can do much to urther the cause of the university by ahn thir nnhul the rea1 idea of WAS MICHIGAN INSULTED? WRITER DECLARES LA- TERN IS ONE CRITICISM. ATTITUDE OF OF JEALOUS Editor, The Michigan Daily: The University of Michigan seems, judging from the recent attack on her good name, to be watched with an eagle eye by the rest of the Conference schools. The Ohio State Lantern did more than merely to point out a de- fect; it showed that Michigan was watched, that every move was studied in order to be taken advantage of and to be made the most of. Suppose the effect on the visitors at Michigan was as described; is it good policy for a sister institution to pub- lish it broadcast, and with that pub- lication to go on and praise herself? The Lantern evidently had some mo- tive when it deliberately and openly accused its sister institution and then at the same time boasted of her own perfection. Some strong incentive prompted that writer when he penned those words. Was it jealousy? Mich- igan, since her entrance into the Con- ference, has many times defeated Ohio States. These defeats could easily intensify the spirit of rivalry between the two campuses. Then, the first col- lege paper to pass along the "boo-hoo" was Illinois. Illinois was sorely dis- appointed in the record of Michigan's football team last fall. Later she was sadly outclassed at Evanston. Might not this also have a bearing on the subject? Could not athletics also play a prominent part in determining the campus sentiment at Illinois? If this is the reason and it is only logical to suppose that friendly rivalry existed between the schools, why should any college paper send repre- sentatives to another , institution to look over and criticize conditions there which at best are only of local concern? No one from outside the campus understands the condtions here, and the Lantern did the good name of Michigan a deep injustice in stating what it did. It can be demonstrated that the con- ditions described do, not exist. Mich- igan spirit reflects chivalry and re- spectfulness, and does not embody un- worthy ideals of idleness and street- corner witticism. Michigan men are marked in their degree by this spirit, and its intensity is the determining factor of the conduct of the campus. The fact that Michigan was attacked through such a small question makes it appear that the Lantern was not sincere. Perhaps it was not meant to create the opinion it did of the good name of Michigan; perhaps the Lan- tern spoke without a thorough under- standing of the subject. At any gate, Michigan was, in plain words, insulted. Let's go, Michigan! Let's uphold the good name of our campus and let no misstatements pass unchallenged! -M. D. S. A meeting of the women of the freshman, sophomore, and junior classes will be held at 4 o'clock Wed- nesday afternoon in Barbour gymnas- ium. The cabinet of the Y. W. C.
