ticularly a new one, to miss the real
point of university life. He may, at

anything may command his time in-
stead of the very thing he is supposed
to do. During these opening days it
requires a little discrimination to
keep your bearings, to see things as

phasis just where it belongs. In this
seething mass of human interests a
student without realizing it may lose
his way.
