Student-Faculty Day Begun

Visions of shivery lights

Visions of faculty members,
engaging in a fierce peanut-pushing
contest, of departmental
heads in a bathing-beauty con
test, of canoe-tilting on Univer

The Y. M. C. A., unfortunate

That yesterday's editorial on the trustee ruling on drinking,
hazing and gambling was the beginning or some part of a
"purity campaign" seems to be the common student concep
tion." "It was nothing of the kind.
It simply pointed out these facts: the faculty is bound by a
trustee ruling to dismiss students "known to engage in" drink
ing, hazing or gambling.
The faculty realizes the absurdity of trying to enforce such
a ruling. It has tried to let the student council take care of
the cases, but student council decisions which da not dismiss
the defendants must necessarily, by statutory wording, be
overruled by the faculty and the defendants dismissed as
provided. J
The council wants the word "dismiss" changed to "disci
pline." Then the council could act freely, on each individual
case, without the sword of "dismiss" over its head, and the
faculty would be protected. ;
That has nothing to do with a "purity campaign." We are
sorry that anyone interpreted such a foolish motive into our
editorial.
