WELCOME FRESHMEN!
The Kansan is glad, this early in the year, to have an opportunity to make your acquaintance. If you are a bit blue, a bit boredness, and feel sotta insignificant, there is yet one comforting thought you should group—we were all freshmen once. We have all felt the way you feel. Some time or another we have each in our turn been confronted by the problems which now perplex you. You digified, all-knowing senior was a more freshly four short years ago. Only last year the sophisticated soph was in your shoes—he has moved on a pace, but the distance is so short that he is still his next door neighbor. Cheer up, you have plenty of company.
Your university life is to be what you make it—you come here to get an education, not to have one give you or you pounded into you. You are now past the stage where you kindly high school teacher will encourage you to come to class, to study your lesson, and in the end give you a good grade because your and is the town banker or a member of the school board. It isn't done that way in a university. But that doesn't mean that your efforts won't be noticed and encouraged if you show the right attitude and a willingness to do, for they will. But you'll have to dig for all you get. After all, it's you who are getting the education, and not the professor.
It's a great game—this being a freshman. The better sport you are, the more whole-heartedly you play the game, the more you'll enjoy it, and the more it'll mean to you in future years. Two-thirds or three-fourths of the members of today's senior class have their freshman cap bid away in a trunk or dresser drawer *ah* home—and the rest wish they had saved theirs. Those same freshman caps which, in a couple of months will be the source of your embarrassment and condescension, will in future years be your greatest pride—calling to mind the never-to-be-forgotten events of that greatest year of your life—the freshman year in college. So, play the game, play it hard
So, play the game, play it hard. fair and square, above the board.
CONSIDER THE UNIVERSITY
How many students realize that the University is an all-year proposition, that it, as a plant, is in operation practically the whole twelve months of each year? The student who attends only the nine-month session is often inclined to feel that, outside of that particular period, the university suspends all work.
But such is not the case. K. U. is always open, not always willing to give of its educational resources to those who are ready to take advantage of them. Barely is commencement over and the happy throng of graduates away when the summer work begins. Much is accomplished in these months when the thermometer tries to break all previous records. There is a certain earnestness about the summer session student that is totally lacking in his younger and less studious brother of the fall term.
Even with the close of the short summer session, the task of the University continues. Much valuable research work is accomplished in this period, new buildings are erected and campus improvements are in full
swing. Offices of the school are in operation caring for routine matters and preparing for the work of the new year. Always, the work of the extension division goes on throughout the country and in foreign hands. Constantly, the University is aiding someone, somewhere, in adding to their store of knowledge it is fitting people for more active participation in life.
Thus the life of the University goes on during the entire year, never ceasing from the arrival of the youngest freshman in the fall to the time when officials begin preparing for the next crop of hopeful new students.
READ IT NOW!
The booklet, "Important information for Freshmen," compiled by college officials, is one that no new student should neglect to read. This booklet is being distributed to all freshmen and, though it has been written with the College underclassman in mind, contains much that is of value to all those who are just beginning their University course.
For some time officiales have felt that the new student has been overlooked at that most important time in his university life—when he does it necessary to select his course of study. Advisors have, in the hurry and rush of enrollment, sometimes forgotten the needs of the individual. Many undergraduates have neglected to inform themselves regarding their chosen junior and this has led to much confusion in their senior year.
This booklet, carefully read, should clear up on each of the previous misunderstandings regarding freshman and sophomore work. In addition, the suggestions for study and the amount of time that may profitably be devoted to activities and outside work, which are treated in the first section of the book along with similar topics, are invaluable.
Although they yet remain a great deal to be done in making the way of the newcomer as smooth as possible, this most recent contribution will aid many in making a success out of their work on the Hill.

VLL-UNIVERSITY CONVOCATION:
BOOK_EXCHANGE:
"Making the necessary corrections for three two positions and recognizing that the college generally hacks any intermediate types of journalism, the soundest conclusion seems to be that college journalism does not contain any information about the orientation of standards in college men—certainly not that they are affected by the Sturm and Drang of the present rapid period to a greater degree than are those who are not college men. If the humorous publication goes to an extremes of unrestraint the newspaper might therefore not definitively none too commonly found among those outside educational institutions these days."

EXTREMES IN COLLEGE JOUR-
Little Lena Fauntery and Peek's Bad Boy are the relative positions held on the compus by the colleges daily and the student humorous publication, according to facts brought to light by Eric C. Hopwood, editor of the Glencoe "The Morris of College Journalism" in Sirenle.
"To judge college life at all intelligently by its journalism is a problem," he wrote. "The most important thing about morale is quite too good to be true. Estimated by its humorous publication, it is so extreme that even a truth is somewhere between the two.
