LY ick Stabile's Orchestra To Play At Panhellenic Ball, -- 0 U S _ _ . _ Prof. Slawson Gives Reasons' or Women's Scholastic Victory By ELIZABETH M. SHAW Greater scholastic achievement by campus women over men is due to selection, lack of necessity for self- suport, less participation in activi- ties, and more serious consideration of their subjects, Prof. Chester B. Slawson of the geology .department and academic counselor for under- graduates, pointed out. Women are in definite minority on campus, Professor Slawson said, and. this makes them a more select group. Because there are more men, he' ex- plained, it means that the scholastic ability must necessarily be below that of women if, .in both cases, the best students come to college from the high schools. It must necessarily follow that if all boys should attend college: the male scholastic average would be still lower. Fewer Women Self-Supporting At the same time, fewer women are expected to support themselves in, college, Professor Slawson said. Most parents feel that if they can send their daughter to school, they should: pay for her education, otherwise her place is at home. Speaking particularly of freshmen, Professor Slawson finds that men are allowed to work in a doz0en .dif-, ferent activities, while women are re- stricted to the Freshmen Glee Club. Men Have Less Time Men often spend three hours a day trying out for freshmen football, ROTC,, band, track, wrestling, or swimming, he said, and this takes time which would otherwise be spent in study. Upperclassmen usually participate more intensively in activities than do women, he pointed out, working for superficial honors wlich in many respects provide greater incentive than any sought by women. Publici- ty and fame is more widespread for the captain of the football or bas- ketball team. Finally, women are likely to be more conscientious about completing assignments gvien to them, Profes- sor Slawson -said.. fx sac /!
