Political Pot University on the Air Hew Students
The political pot will soon be boiling. And axiomatically too afny cooks will spoil the broth. Politics in colleges and universities have in recent years been t»ken too seriously by the undergraduates. They attempt to apply the corrupt practices of the party system to the local college politics. In previous years political parties in the university have brought about factionalism and a lowering of the ties of the university brotherhood.
Seriously, just what is the gain to be secured out of political office such as is typified by the local student government? The honor is slight, and the only reward is the satisfaction that can be secured from serving. Politically minded students should not use student government as a stepping stone for their selfish aspirations.
It was the philosophy of one of the leaders of our American politics when in its infancy, that “the public is a great beast.” Such may be applied to the student exercise of the franchise. Many students do not bother to vote. Others are moved by political alliances, rather than by judicious thought and the capability of the candidates. A firm step forward on the part of the student body, would be the doing away with political parties and the evils that follow such rule of the minority. Candidates should seek votes upon their own merits and not upon the power which the political party, to which they are affiliated, possesses.
The same policy should be followed in the election of class officers. It has been the practice in years gone by for certain political parties to make promises for even these class elections. The results of which are self evident. When one enters into politics he must live by it. It is the most crafty who succeeds. But in these student elections, it should be the aim of the student body to seek out such attempts at political prattle and brand it as such. Select your candidates upon merit and judiciously exercise your right of the franchise.
The university is on the air. Beginning Monday the University Classroom of the Air, will resume its five day a week schedule over station WIOD, presenting well known members of its faculty, leaders in the field of education, artists from the conservatory and outstanding students. These programs should prove entertaining as welT as educational.
Have you secured your new student for next fall? The administration staff is working mighty bard to increase the enrollment for the coming year and with the support of the student body it is very Possible that our enrollment will be increased. During the past few weeks a group from the faculty and tsudent body have appeared at all the high schools south of West Palm Beach and many7 of the civic Hubs, telling them of the merits of the most southern university in the United States..
