Life Reports On Campus Marriage
The pattern of campus marriage
started by World War II veterans
is now becoming a permanent feature of the collegiate scene, accord-in- ?
to recent reports in LIFE
magazine.
4
The trend. LIFE says, is toward
mire and more undergraduate
marriages, with college experts
predicting the proportion of married students to rise by 50 percent

to 75 percent in the next ten
years.
A survey by LIFE of 22 colleges
and universities shows that the
East lags behind other regions in
percentage of married undergraduates. The University of Georgia,
where 19 percent of the undergraduates are married, holds the
"married students record."

Leadership Priorities
In a recent speech, Dr. Frank

ye heartily agree with Dr. Rose. There is
no place in the world today for bigotry and
intolerance. However, bigoted, intolerant
men can be-- found in every occupational field,
it should be the goat of young leaders to
combat intellectual prejudice and snobbery
wherever these fallacies may crop up.

A. Rose, the

distinguished he'ad of Transylvania College,
made several very pertinent and searching
.
.
observations about priorities or leadership.
With the nearness of graduation we believe
is worthwhile to review his comments.
The 'development of mass education, Dr.
Hose said, has greatly diminished the di- ruling class and
vision between the
the working class. The world has become
more democratic in the sense that our found- ing fathers meant it to be. Even in America
this has not always been true. At times in
our history some educators have thought that

Tomorrows rulers will be common men,
.
.
and if tlieir rule is to be wise and just the
.
foundations must be laid today. This is a
great challenge to the colleges and timversi- ties of America, and for the young men and
women who are coming out of these schools.
'

Today this has changed, and so must our
concept of leadership. The leaders must al- low the common man a greater voice in gov- ;
,V
,
crnmeut. Dr. Rose said. Todays leader must
be tolerant and without bias or prejudice.
.
.
1 lie great technological advances made in
the last 25 years have caused a tremendous
i.pheaval in our way of life. Decisions that,
once could be considered for two or three
weeks before being made must now be acted
upon within a matter of minutes.

This calls for intelhgent leadership. Our
young men must be trained to anticipate
crisises and to be ready to take action iinme- diately. This acceleration in living demands
a certain amount of specialization. Altlxmgh

band to the campus. They were
the best band to appear on campus
during the year. And that includes
the supposedly terrific Billy May
band.
And finally, we wish everyone a
fond farewell. And in closing, we
leave you with a poem which appeared in the Factory earlier in
the year. We would all do well to
take heed its message during finals.
It's entitled. "Don't Quit."
When things go wrong, as they
sometimes will.

The silver tint of the clouds of
doubt
And you never can tHl how ciose

It may be near when it seems afar;
So stick to the fight when you're

hardest hit-- It's
when things seem worse that
YOU MUSTN'T QUIT!
