...question is too often dismissed in this way merely to avoid the personal inconvenience which it is well known would follow upon a really fair decision. The strict application of theory to practice in the college world demands a disregard of one's temporary convenience which to many students would seem little less than brutal. An ideal is such a persistently determined affair that one shrinks from encountering it. When a man knows he is honorable, why expose himself to the unpleasant suggestion that he is not?

It is high time that college men began to realize how unbecoming is the lack of consideration they show towards those whom they have elected to positions of responsibility...
