* STUDENT OPINION *

Some people eat to live and live to
eat, others love to live and live to
love, but from all outward appear
ances a great many of us who claim
to be loyal Aggies gripe to live and
live to gripe. That’s all a fellow can
hear from sun up to sun down while
he eats at the table, while he sits in
his room, or while he resorts to some
form of pastime. All that is necessary
to furnish a subject for gripes is the
naming of any noun in connection
with our college life. We are entirely
too prone to find fault with what we
have at hand, whether it be food,
clothing, shelter or amusements.
If a fellow can’t adapt himself to
his surroundings while he is at col
lege, pray tell me what he is to do
after he starts bucking the so-called
cold cruel world ? A part of our
training is that of adapation. Many
upperclassmen believe the chief bene
fits from the freshman year is that of
learning to get along despite the
handicaps and to take everything
with a smile. Is that belief consistent
with the present amount of griping?
The freshman, to a certain extent,
learns through observation and ex
ample, and when he can hear noth
ing but faultfinding from the men he
respects most, how is he to fully
benefit from that one form of train
ing that comes only once in a life
time? Surely we, as upperclassmen,
can adjust ourselves to the college
life if a boy just out of high school
and home can.
All of us have heard the saying,
“If we can’t say a good word for a
person, then ’tis better that we keep
still.” We have found that to hold
well through experience. Why should
n’t it be fully as worthwhile to say,
“If we can’t say a good word for our
school, then ’tis better to remain
quiet?” Of course, I’ll admit that a
gripe session furnishes amusement
and arguement while it is going on—
but such a poor form of amusement
