Should a stranger enter our library he would be illusioned by the average student's seriousness of thought and study. He would find the student taking copious notes from stacks of volumes with machine-like precision. These notes, the copyist would tell the stranger, judged by quality and neatness, will get a grade. Surely it is folly to copy book after book and volume after volume to be thrown in the waste basket via the professor's desk. Not alone is it a waste of precious time and energy, but eventually it becomes mechanical and defeats the issue for which it was devised. Students become such apt copyists that they can easily carry on a conversation and weild a vigorous pen at the same instant. Many students can remark with sincerity "Rather lose my head than my notebook." Undue emphasis has been placed on notes and far too little on the student's knowledge. Professors are prone to base a student's intelligence on his ability to copy rather than his power to absorb. Fewer notes and more convolutions will be of greater value out in thte world of business. Bits of knowledge are worth notes on the whole library. Fair judgement on the part of faculty members can change our place of study from a scriptorium to a genuine library. MEDAL TO BE AWARDED A medal will be awarded by the Intercollegiate Conference athletic association at the next University convocation, to the student who is chosen by the University as having the most creditable record in scholarship and athletics. In a recent letter to President W. A. Jessup from Warren D. Howe, secretary of the association, the statement was made that the order for the conference medal for the University had been placed. Y.
