It is late in the year to be discussing this type of student, but he is still with us, and will become very conspicuous during final week. He is the student who is interested only in what he has to do. He casts disapproving looks at any one who says a word at his table in the library. If the annoyance becomes too great, he will get up with obvious disgust, slam his books shut, and move his chair. The student who is attempting to study has a right to be disgusted by the whispering and giggling that is going on around him. The library is a place for study, and silence should be maintained as the sign in the front hall of the building announces to all who enter. For efficient work this rule should really be obeyed. WHERE CRIME STARTS But frequently that same student, when some of his friends come in and sit beside him, immediately starts the objectionable chatter himself. Paul Kauffman killed a girl four years ago. Now he has been sentenced to death, and people hail his example as a warning to criminals. A few weeks ago a thirteen-year-old boy caused the death of a tiny girl in Chicago and the nation was shocked. A mob of women became uncontrollably hysterical at the funeral. Yet Paul Kauffman is that small boy grown to manhood. The nature of his wrongdoing seared the consciousness of criminality into the mind of the public. It was horrible. Every one could picture that blow falling upon some member of his own family. And because Paul Kauffman is grown to a man's stature they will wreak a grown-up's vengeance upon him. The horrified public said in chorus, "That boy should have been in an institution." There was no thought of hanging him by the neck until dead as a warning to others, for people understood that he didn't know better. It was recognized that his sexual abnormality caused the crime. This is not an argument that Kauffman should not be prevented from harming society still more. It is an attempt to show that anti-social persons are moulded that way. Future criminals are to be found among the children of today. They lack something, or are overdeveloped in some other way, and these abnormalities can be detected by psychiatry. Indulgent elders cannot always see the faults of youngsters as being anything potentially dangerous, but science could prevent terrible crimes if people would appreciate the source of crimes. TRANSPLANTING KNOWLEDGE As Nemesis looms in the shape of rapidly approaching finals some students have been making complaints about their professors failing to teach them anything comprehensive about some fairly technical subject that they have been studying. The professor, confronted with the accusation, says that it has been the student's fault because of his failure to concentrate on the course, in the way of reading the text book and outside assignments, really to understand what the lectures have been about. This explanation is correct in a degree. In some instances the student may have failed to study, but this is not true of all who complain. Many of them have studied diligently, but have not had sufficient guidance in the subject to understand that which they read. This is primarily because the professor is apt to teach a subject on his own level of understanding and forget the fact that theories which are to his mind simple are much more complicated to the student who has not had the same background. He should make a serious attempt to explain thoroughly all of his points. He could utilize the plan of one professor who picks out the student who shows the least ability in grasping ideas at the first of the term, and thoroughly explains the different principles to that student. When he feels sure that this student has grasped the idea he is then fairly certain that the rest of the class also has obtained a comprehensive idea of the matter at hand. The student should be thought of as an interested and curious listener, rather than an animated dummy. Many graduating students think their work is about over when it is really just beginning. THE NEW ROAD The campus workmen under the guidance of the department of buildings and grounds have finished a project that adds materially to the good appearance of the campus. The road leading from the Hill to the south, the route of the Lawrence bus line, is one of the most attractive drives from the University. When the city of Lawrence finishes its part in the paving of this road, down Seventeenth street, the drive will be almost perfect. The bus riders undoubtedly will miss the bumpy road of the past, but the enjoyment of smooth easy riding will more than make up for the memory, and bus riding will be a pleasure. Repeal of prohibition has admitted many dumb lawyers to the bar. STRIKES CAN BE ELIMINATED Costly riots and bitter strikes of late have been brought about by the refusal of employers to permit their employees to exercise the right to join labor unions. Industrial history shows that collective bargaining is the method by which progress is made in industrial relations. The American Federation of Labor, for more than fifty years, has devoted service to human advancement and welfare. Members of the Federation increase their economic strength and political and social influence because they are identified with a national organization and have its potential backing. Company unions do not signify strength and are artificial in origin, growth and development because they lack elements of fraternity and mutuality of interest. They do not bear the stamp of sincerity or realism. It is to be regretted that physical controversies and the tactics of force are found more effective than seeking the conference room to convince conferees of the justice and wisdom of labor's position. Working men and women no longer are to be considered mere fixtures in industry, but instead are intelligent, understanding human beings with a concept of life which emphasizes the cultural. In the light of history, it is reasonable to conclude that if employers of labor would accept OFFICIAL UNIVERSITY BULLETIN CANDIDATES FOR DEGREES: Vol. XXXI Thursday, May 31, 1934 Notices due at Chancellor's Office at 11 a.m. on regular afternoon publication days and 11:30 a.m. on Saturday for Sunday issues.

Our Contemporaries STUDENTS ARE ADULTS Indiana Daily Student STUDENTS ARE ADULTS "If the time ever comes when we are prepared to treat university students like adults we shall see further economies in administration." Robert Maynard Hutchins, president of the University of Chicago, declared in a recent article in the Yale Review. "Universities," he said, "have developed the idea in parents, or parents have developied it in universities, that the institution is in some way responsible for the moral, social, and intellectual needs of the curriculum." It is very nice for the parents; it is hard on the universities, for besides being expensive, it deflects from their main task, which is the advancement of knowledge." A university can not undertake to give a student character or intellectual interest, he said. If it is to do its work properly the student must have these qualities when he enrolls. President Hutchins is not speaking only of the University of Chicago where he has made great strides forward in administration and contributed in many matters to the adjustment of knowledge. He is speaking of any university which finds that it is spending too much money to do the work of a custodial establishment, a church or of a body-building institute. Parents who do not make adults of their children before they ship them off to college unquestionably are handicapping not only the school which receives the children but also the children themselves. If a boy or girl can not take care of himself or herself by the time college age is reached, it is unlikely that he or she will learn to do so without consideration. You should trouble and expense for the school which receives him or her. The work of the university should begin where the work of parents leaves off. The duties of the two should not overlap. Olijo State Lantern Nearly 1,000 graduates, the annu. June quota, will go out from the University of Iowa within the next three weeks. Many thousand of others will go out from hundreds of other American colleges and universities. And once again come up the question of prospects for the college graduate. Has the tide of a receding depression receded far enough to offer him a job? About this time there is just a little consolation in knowing that Lindbergh flunked out of the University of Wisconsin; that Dr. W. J. Mayo left the University of Michigan medical school via the flunk route and that Stewart Edward White and Franklin P. Adams had the portals slammed behind them at the same institution. THE PROSPECT FOR GRADUATES The Daily Iowan. This questioning and doubting was only a natural reactionary by-product of national distress—a part of the hysteria which gripped every field of endeavor in America. The last two or three years have been years of educational doubt. College graduation is no longer looked upon as the one sure road to financial success, open to anyone who will spend four years and varying sums of money on an education. Obviously, the skies are not bright, as far as immediate employment in the professions is concerned. The same situation prevails in all vocations. If there is one thing which the depression has shown clearly, it is that success will come to those who have looked ahead, prepared themselves against vocational competition with the best possible training. It is this connection that the educated man or woman has the upper hand. Signs of returning financial well-being for the nation are everywhere at hand. Prosperity is not **(b)** be accomplished in a few weeks, or even in a few months. It is a slow and painful process, full of pitfalls and minor setbacks. But, as surely as that is true, it is just as true that there is an undersupply of well trained persons especially fitted for each of these vocations. When it does arrive, the army of college graduates will be better ready to meet it. In the meantime it is well to remember that there is such a thing as education for living as well as education for making a living.
