HELP CHIMESWITH IDEAS
STUDENT URGES IN COMMENTING
ON SCARCITY OF OPINIONS BE-
ING EXPRESSED
Editor, The Michigan Daily:
In conversation with a member of
Chimes staff today, I inquired as to
the "Hot Off the Diagonal Column" in
that magazine, and commented on the
fact that they printed student opinion
and good student opinion in that de-
partment. A lookof disgust came over
his face and his remarks were a re-
vealation to me.
I discovered that Chimes seldom if
ever has a voluntary offering of camp-
us opinion, that all the opinion which
is printed in that column is asked for,
solicited by the members of the staff,
generally from prominent men on the
campus who have opinions on vari-
ous campus subjects. These men, ac-
cording to the man I was talking to,
are nearly always willing to give
Chimes something when they are ask-
ed to do so. Many of them are anxious
to write for the magazine. But none,
or very few of them do so voluntarily.
It seems to me that this is a lament-
able condition of affairs indeed. When
the professed campus opinion maga-
zine has to solicit campus opinion from
a campus which is as opinionated as
this one, something is wrong some-
where. There is student opinion, cry-
ing for expression, bemoaning the fact
that it never has a chance to be heard
but must blush unseen, there is a
mealum for the expression for this
opinion, yet it is not taken advantage
of as it should be. What is wrong?
Not Chimes. Every month they signify
their willingness to publish reason-
ably thoughtful contributions whether
they agree with them or not. It must
be the students, those who have opin-
ions but fail to express them.
There .are other ways of supporting
campus publications than In simply
subscribing to them and reading them.
This way, that of contributing opin-
