, T s THE CADET.  
tinued this year with renewed vigor. Notwithstanding ji.
- the fact that the boys in the dormitories are not sur- _
l rounded with the gentle influences of a good home and
deprived of the watchful care of a mother and sisters  
there is no reason why the boys of State College should  
carry with them the name of "Toughs," This is a dis-  
grace and should not continue. This is due to certain ¢
boys who go to questionable places—places of the most Q
disgraceful character. What we need is a strong senti- {
V ment among the boys and the members of the faculty V
against such things. A great many members of the
faculty could do much more than they do if they only `
i » had the interest in the students that should exist be-
tween both teacher and pupil. The dormitories should
· be a refined and cultured home as well as a cheap one.
S College dormitory life make or unmake aman in college.
If he withstands the temptations he is benefited, but if ·
not he is injured for life. Let us begin this work in
time and make State College a place for the development
of the moral as well as the mental and physical man.
The moral development is the most essential in any .
avocation of life, and the college life is the place for .
this training. Let everything of an immoral character
be discountenanced by both students and faculty and
l we are sure that a great change will be noticed in a
short time.
_ Wn hope to see more work and better work done here i
. at State College this year than has ever been done here
S before in one year. There is no reason why this year
.~ should not be the most prosperous in our history and
more work done in all departments. The prospects are
much brighter than they have been for many years. If
all, both students and faculty, be11d to the task, a mighty
Hercnles, this can be made the most prosperous year in
