Spotlight's idea of a just cause for an inferiority complex is when grades come out and we find outI grstexactly what the instructors thing of our intellect. And such grades! Personally I I think I am perfectly justified in writing a bool entitled "Why Pro- fessors Behave Like Human Be- ings," or don't they? About the only consolation I can see in the whole situation is the fact that there is J-Hop to look back to. Yes, I finally did get a bid! And did we have a good time! Didn't we come back with rings under our eyes, a collection of prize pictures and guest towels, to say nothing about the favors and the fraternity pin. And then we woke up Monday A.M. to the tune. of the alarm clock played in the dismal key of C minor, gazed out .upon the cold cruel world and de-. cided what's the use anyway? No-, thing exciting would ever happen again. So we decided that we might just as well visit a. couple of- classes and see just exactly what courses -were going to be pipes; if the prof has a sense of humor, etc., and then by a process of elimina- tion classify.. But, after all, you can't spend" more than four days at this favor- ite indoor sport so I guess that college really has begun in earnest again, if lengthy assignments are any criterion. But sometimes we wonder. For instance I ventured in the main Library tonight, and as a result I feel that the Spotlight is justified in offering the following; suggestions to the Regents. That crutches be provided for all those, people who wish to study Greek fashion. That all blonds an other- wise disturbing creatures be shot. That the University is losing money1 by not serving coffee in the'lobby. And that smoking rooms be pro- vided for the boys, so that they won't catch pneumonia while drap- ed gracefully all over the Lib. steps.
