include those girls on academic
probation who must comply
with its regulations), and any
offense tiiat would normally be
handled by a dorm council is
handled in the suite of the of
fender. All punishments are de
cided upon by the suite as a
wliole including the girl who
is to be punished.
Although these freedoms have
been given to the girls by the
school, most of the suites have
taken it upon themselves to set
standards and regulations for
the girls in the suite to abide
by. One such suite has decided
that they should sign in and out
in the suite under the same con
ditions that the other women
dorms are required to do in the
main lounges. In this same
suite the giris have set up a
closed study from 7:30 P.M. till
7:00 A.M. that is rigidly enforc
ed. Another suite has set up
standard punishments such as
one day's suite arrest for each
minute a girl in that suite

The Responsible
Slndent Is Free!
Youth going away to college
comes into a new freedom. To
some, the uninitiated, this means
freedom to act, to think, to
speak as one pleases. The im
mature find in this new life,
far from apron strings and par
ental “don’ts”, freedom from
restrain, from moral standards.
Alas, a judgment day comes for
these anj they are sad because
they have violated something
basic in their natures, some
thing very fundamental in this
universe.
A little thought reveals, and
the sharp ones know, that the
removal of restraint creates
problems. How shall we order
our lives when we are free to
do as we please? Walter Lip-
pmann once said, “We have
come to see that Huxley was

right when he said, ‘A man’s
worst difficulties begin when he
is able to do as he likes!’ Hux
ley goes on to say of those who
have thrown off restraint and
do not know what to do vwth
their freedom; “These are the
prisoners who have been re
leased .. . The prison door is
wide open. They stagger out
into trackless space under a
blinding sun. They find it
nerve-racking.” Not just nerve-
racking, but ‘a stumbling block’
to the weak, as Paul has it.
Paul’s solution to the dil-
ema is found in his idea of j
liberty. True liberty is not free
dom to do as one likes It’s
rather “t‘he power to do as we
ought”. Through Christ Paul
had been emancipated from the
Jewish Law to become a son of
God. We are free only when
our capacities are released
through devotion to something
greater than ourselves.
Some students on our cam
pus are finding freedom, a new
! intenpretation of it to many,
or system in Orange Dorm this i when their powers are released
year, that the residents of the t jjjirougih a dream of what they
maybe Eimily Post could ex
plain to them that a hobble-de-
hoy needn’t be in early ado
lescence. He can just as easily
be twenty one or twenty two
years old. He can be a Char-
lottean or a “podunkian” who
thinks that madras is semi-
formal, that baby blue and ol
ive are a sharp match, that
girls think he is sexy when he
doesn’t wear “gold cups,” and
that etiquette, even in modera
tion, is for the “faeries and pan
sies.” Are you like Clem or Or
well, a myopic worm? Little
boy, did you forget to grow up?
other women dorms should be
able to look forward to a simi
lar plan in their dorms next
fall. The girls of Orange have

can become, what they can do
for other :people. Freedom then
is not an opportunity for the
flesh. It is an opportunity to
grow, to serve.
