The M. S. C. Record Page 187 Why is An Alumnus? It might be more to the point to ask, where do these theorists get the idea that in the life of an individual there is such a factor as college spirit. An Alumnus is a person (either masculine or feminine, according to the most recent interpretation) who has received a degree from an institution of higher learning. It may be one of the various academic appendages conferred by the faculty or it may be an in dividual appellation presented by his classmates before the College In made up its mind that he was eligible for the regulation honor. any case .An Alumnus is one who has extracted something from the atmosphere of a college which is not absorbed by the one who merely lives in a college town. One entitled to this distinction has qualifica tions other than those necessary to win the approval of the faculty and outstanding among these is college spirit. This prolongs the argument, for college spirit is a much abused term. The true nature of the ailment has never been definitely de cided, it is an infection which causes the heart to palpitate, an ir resistible force which brings the victim to his feet when Alma Mater is played or sung, a chronic inflammation which had its inception when the alumnus was yet an undergrad and walked across the Campus on a bright spring day or waded through the snowdrifts after a January storm. More than this it exerts a mysterious influence which in later years draws the important events of college days into focus, sorting out individuals and occasions but blending the whole into a tapestry It constitutes—and draws to itself woven from fondest memories. strength—the bonds which draw the graduate to his alma mater. There are some three thousand of these peculiar individuals who read The M. S. C. RECORD thirty-five which times each year and they are also given Association.

T he address not only attracted the student body and faculty but the resi dents of Lansing and East Lansing as well. The event marked the first visit of Michi gan's new president to the College. . President Little, who was 40 minutes late in arriving at the gymnasium due to his icy pavement en- car overturning on the in route to the college, was very informal his talk to the student body. His subject was based upon St. Paul's version of what constitutes the important life, namely, faith, hope and charity. things in than today they may be more aptly "These three attributes" said Dr. Little, "are somewhat different they were in the time of St. Paul. They are wrapped up in clothes of a new hue which identity. However, their to many hides least. they are still with us, basically, at Today termed 'humility, courage and fellowship.' " say that humility is the art of forgetting one's self in the greater efforts and tasks in life. Too often we pursue tasks for what they will eventually bring to ourselves without con sideration of their effect upon humanity. President Little went on to " M o d e rn culture, in the family, in poli tical life and in our schools" said Mr. Lit tle, "is so constituted that the quality of faith, or humility, is hard to cultivate. O ur children are reared to believe that it is the duty of the state to educate them, regard less of other factors entering into the situa tion. T he majority of the American youth for an education and today do not ask in benevolence on the part of the state stitutions; they demand it. As long as the young men and women feel that the state Owes them an education, that the profes sors are merely hirelings of the institution and that their own parents are but stepping stones for themselves and their ambitions, the universities and colleges will not be able to function to their most efficient de gree. The young American today does not have the humility to admit that there is a great deal for him to learn." T he second attribute of St. Paul, that of hope, is today enclosed in the virtues of courage, President Little went on to say in bringing up his second point. Foregoing the pleasures and easy things of life are the greatest demands of courage. O ur fore fathers needed courage of the staunchest Today the kind courage has come t o ' m e an another char acteristic, that of being courageous in one's inner being. in battling elements. "Inner courage", said the speaker, "com prises three things, being frank with your self, taking criticism squarely and taking the events of life as they come in a very hum ble manner without the outward gloss and veneer in which people are so apt to clothe themselves. T he courage of making inside decisions must be of a higher calibre than It is a simple that of fighting the elements. to matter combate inward impulses, weaknesses and the most noble and temptations calls for staunch courage it is possible for a that person to command. to fight a physical enemy, but "Suffering inspires courage.

Their philosophy of through undergoes a great transformation Page ipo The M. S. C. Record be trial. People who have this medium of to suffer have made a great ac learned complishment. Courage may not as evident on the surface when accompanied far- by humility, but its results are more reaching and lasting. Humility, courage and suffering go hand in hand. They are more evident in older people because of the they have greater amount of experience gained as a result of their existence. We cannot expect that these attributes will be as apparent in the young generation, but it affords education with one of its great est and least exploited fields. their contemporaries. "Don't be different about the order of things just because you belong to a different generation. You must be tolerant with your Their parents and practices must stand until you have definite ly demonstrated that your ideas are super ior. Their mannerisms have stood the test of time, which yours have not. T he suc cess of a nation depends upon its stability, whether it be social, political or economic. Be tolerant until your tests prove your way or ways to be better those of your elders. Never say: 'You're wrong and I'm right'. A proof is much more effective than a mere the 'performance' test. statement.

Penn State defeated us 13 to 6, it was defeated by Syracuse only 7 to o, and tied the mighty Rockne team from the Notre Dame.

They all show that M. S. C. has not lost any fight and the account of the Wiscon sin game placed it as being one of the livest of the season. The following big teams have won three or less games during the season: Oregon, Idaho, Washington State, Montana. Of the Western Conference teams Chicago won three, tied one, lost four; Ohio State won four, tied one, lost three Iowa won five, lost t h r e e; Northwestern lost five, won four, three; Purdue tied three, won one. lost I think these instances show my point.

Do you remember when we went to Ann Arbor in 1912 and the final score read 55 to 7.

They have set the early part of January for the beginning of their activi ties. T he council came into being several years ago and accomplished several things for the College, one of the most important of wmich was the raising of funds to fur nish the practice house. F or this purpose about $1,500 was realized. Since that task was completed the council has been more or less inactive because of a lack of a defi nite program. W i th the reorganization several of the members have proposed that the organiza tion sponsor an effort to furnish certain things for the Union Memorial building in honor of the woman graduates, since there is now no especially distinctive memorial to the women of the College although there will be several in place within a year or so in honor of individuals.

It is also characteristic of that one of the women There are several reasons for this which might be supplied by the expert, but citing any of them would lead into an argument which any peace loving individual would dodge if possible. T he attributes of men and women are different. Their impulses are regulated by different governors. N o where is this more noticeable than it is in connection with a project sort. Alumni and alumnae have joined staunchly in behalf of the fund and have done their individual parts but the women have gath ered about their own standard to do some thing distinctive. this of Among certain of the Chinese it is an age- old custom that each man have all of his debts paid before the new year starts. It must be a peculiarly satisfying task to watch the affairs of the Chinese alumni offices, if there be such. T he point is that if all the Union to sums pledged and due by Memorial building fund were paid J a n u a ry 1 the committee in charge of the financing program would have a load of worry set aside and if all dues were paid up the Association would likewise be in a position of affluence, at least it would be affluent when compared to its present stat us. The matter of paying up such obliga in tions is often overlooked, many times favor of some which appear more pressing It makes but little dif or more important. ference whether a pledge is made to pay the grocer or to pay the building fund a certain amount, one should be as strictly adhered to as is the other. T he Chinese have had thousands of years of civilization when compared to much of the rest of the world and in some respects their attributes are decidedly desirable, especially when they are seen from the collecting end of a bar gain. In his address at the College convocation President Little stressed the importance of humility as an attribute of the undergrad uate seeking success. He presented a creed not new but worded differently than those impressions customarily presented. he made on his audience were of his sin cerity, his capacity for broad thinking and his friendliness all of which commended him to his hearers.
