SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 16. 1905
Manager Lansdon will place students' season tickets on sale next week for the ten football games. The price will be $2.00, which will also include membership in the Athletic Association.
The Law faculty has been turned out into the streets until their new building is completed. "Uncle Jimmy" has pre-empted a corner in the Chancellor's office where he deposits his books between classes.
The talk to students by the Chancellor Friday, was by far the best talk he has made on such an occasion. His earnestness and feeling of responsibility seem to increase each year and his hold upon the students grows stronger day by day.
Within a few days the student body will be in the midst of the usual fall political campaigns. Class officers are to be elected and members of the Athletic Board to be chosen. Already, the candidates are beginning to tell a few intimate friends how on various occasions they have preserved inviolate the honor of their class and upheld the glory of the University.
There has been a dearth of faculty members at chapel exercises this year. If the faculty members do not attend chapel, little can be said to the students who choose to absent themselves from the 10 o'clock exercises. There has not been the usual number of upper classmen at the exercises this year but the attendance will doubtless grow during the coming week. The smiling faces of the "Laws" are missed from the north section.
The great increase in enrollment in the Engineering school speaks much for the thoroughness and efficiency of the work done in that department. The
Engineering school is justly considered to have the most difficult course in the University, nor do the instructors ever for a moment let down the bars as to the quality of work to be done. This usually results, at the end of the term, in more failures, in proportion, in that school than in any other department of the University; but it also means that a weeding out process is constantly being carried on, and that those who finish that course have done well the work required of them. The reputation of the Engineering school as to the work done has spread, not only over Kansas, but to surrounding states also. The increase is enrollment is but the result of the quality of work done in the school.
The rules passed by the University council governing organizations other than athletics, are far reaching in their effect. It means that the presidents and managers of the various student organizations, such as orchestra, mandolin and glee clubs, and The Kansan, must first be approved by the University authorities. Whether the committee will interfere in every case or only when the men elected are obviously unfit is not known. The students will not stand for too much interference in their affairs, but with Prof. Wilcox at the head of the committee there need be no fear that student elections will be curtailed.
It was hoped last spring that some system of voting for members of the athletic board could be devised whereby there could not be the boodling that there has been in the previous elections. For the last few years there have been election funds, of $100 to $500, raised by the various factions to buy shares. These shares with the admission privilege were placed with people who could be induced to support the candidates of the men who bonght the tickets. It was proposed either to make each person buy his share in person, or throw the privilege of voting open to all students. The time for athletic election is nearly at hand and nothing has been done towards effecting a reform.
Dudley Doolittle of Cottonwood Falls, a graduate of the class of '04 in the University, and a prominent Sigma Chi, was visiting his alma mater and old friends the fore part of the week.
