Down Senior Way
The other day, the seniors oh,
by the way, what' are seniors any
way ? By a careful scrutiny of the
"s" pages of Noah Webster, one
can ascertain Noah's opinion that
they are "elders." Of course such
a definition ; would appear abso
lutely absurd and out of the ques
tion to any one of the students of
the Universitat Carol Septent, be
cause there are co-eds abroad in
the class, and girls arc never el
ders. Furthermore, Bobbie Welch
used to bo a senior when he was
younger, and if he was younger
how could he have been elder?
About the only place one finds
real sure-enough elders is in those
stories we used to read (when we
were younger) in which there were
two boys the elder of whom was
named thus-arid-so, and two girls
the elder of whom was named so-and-thus.
Now even tho' they
were elder they were not seniors.
They had no dignity, learn
ing, "boots" on professors,
Phi Beta Kappa keys, or class
pins glittering on their waist
coats! Furthermore, if they had
gone to the senior smoker they
would not have been able to make
speeches when called on, even if
thev were elder.
Truth to tell, old Noah just
didn't know himself and was try
ing to evade the question by giving
the nearest Anglo-Saxon equiva
lent (etymologically speaking)
presuming that the august body of
so-called seniors, whatever they
are, will permit one to speak ety
mologically in this column. There
fore brethren and sistern, let us.
after due procedure, discard our
worthy friend Noah's opinion on
I lie subject.
All sorts and conditions of the
genus homo can be seniors- under
the proper circumstances and con
ditions. For instance, one doesn't
have to be studious, bright, old,
ugly, pretty, young, fat, slim, or
anything else except to be in the
sonior class.
But how in the world to get in ?
Well, you can't get in if you are
not already in it. There i3 no
way to be elected to it. The only
absolute and final conditions fol
low. Brethren, hear ye them: If it
so happens that a specimen of the
genus homo, whether male or fe
male, having entered the afore
said Universitat carol Septent, in
the class which is supposed to
graduate next June, has gotten off
enough courses to avoid the ac
quaintance of the dean, he is verily
a senior. One doesn't even have to
graduate to be a senior. All one
has to do is to be supposed to be
about to be graduated in the year
1017 A. I).
Sic est senioribus!
The other day, they well, I've
used up all my space, but if the
news hasn't leaked out by next
week, I'll tell you what they did
the other day.
