^ STUDENT OPINION ^
Will), iil'tcr Iioiiring tlic frank niiil free ex*
jn'O-ssiniiii iiguiiist closed study honv tlic first
few uiglits of its L'liforctMuent, can make the
stiiteinont fliat the inajoi'ity of the ilcvedifli
Collcjic students a])provo of tlic new act, or
lidw c'iin it he said that it will lirinii’ about
(.'onpcration among the girls? It is nuytliiug
lint oooporation. It is the death of one of
the means of stimulating this desired olciuent
of collcgG life. It is the expression of a fool
ing that our girls do not rcspcct tho 3'ight of
otlu-rs and cannot he trusted to do that wliich
is liest for their good and that of their neigh-
hiir.s. Wo do not want such a feeling as this
cultivated in our collcgo \vhoro we are trving
to -arry ont all tilings on tho honor svHteni.
whoro one of tho highest things we are at-
teni])ting is to ostahliah a students’ govorii-
niont hased on the h.igh ideals of ponlidJMice in
each other, and honor in th(! highest degree.
i'nrthermore, a girl who wants to study
will do so. and one who wants to make candv.
read novels, or indulge in any of the many
other popular dormitory pastimes will just
as surely do so. noi' is this the only ])lace
whore we soo the iueffcctivcncss of closed
study hour. It is equally tis useless in pre
venting the popular cry “luy roommate nev^r
wants to study when I dn.” It is true that
the roonunate, who “causes all of the flunk
ing.” can no longer bring visitors into llie
vooui during tho two ho\irs and fifteen mie-
ufos of closed study hour, hut there is TiO^’iiVig
1o prevent her cooking, (and the odor« sent
out hy -hoeolate lU' sausage are sure death to
cnncentratiou) or gaily chattoriug every sec
ond of the hour. ‘‘Oh,” you say, “sh(‘ wiuld
not do that, of course if you wore studying.”
Well, neither wo\ild she hring frieuils of hei-s
over your stuily sign.
'riien too, closed study hour causes girls
to ])o.-^tpou(‘ their work until the two last
hours of the day simply because there is the
assurance that everyone will necessarily ro*
nniin in her room, the library, or some class
rcxnn during that time, but alas! having spent
the hours of the afternoon down street, or
lei.'urely strolling about the canijuis, she who
has thought of doing her work during study
hour, finds herself tired, and perhaps the vic
tim of a beastly headache, but ■with the all
too short two hours in which to do her work
for tho next day. This ^vas all duo to her
lack of good judgment? Yes, but it is true
just the same, while heretofore she, with no
assurance of a tpiiet hmir in the ev(‘uing util
ized the tirst available opportunity in ]>re-
jiaring her work for the next day, and liad the
evening to spend as she most desired.
AVe do want a high standard of work on
the part of the students, but along with that
we want freedom and wc want this standard
