M. The statement, condemning
it alas, n ail too often tme.
Social caatom^, usually, are dic-
tJ tod by the bfhavior of froupa
r k i social Branding by the act-
ot Individual* in these groups,
a id bt popular opinion. Even the
gpmpd in the loarer social strata at-
to imitaite the actions of
tleir more highly educated sad sup-
p wodly socially superior country-

opinion, then, ia a pow

it >is ' logical to assume
tl at college student* enjoy a posi-
'tisu not attained by the average
Mtixcn. That is, they have the priv-
fl »ge of h. ip rtg to form social
e i*tom* while conforming to those
P reviossly set ind accepted.
Aggies, ixisuse of their gregar-
k us nature, sometimes do not con-
f ctn to accepted standards and by
filling to do so cannot measure as
h oti the social scale as uaiver-
students should.
Hotable example of noncon
formity in Aggies is the nowdiness
of them display in neighbor-
theaters. Undoubtedly most of
| . caused by freshmen and
sopie by wellmeaning, but an-
thoughtful, upperclassmen,
suth behavior ii inexcusable even
in those groups. Level headed up-
of the importance of proper beha-

not sttffkient, then perhaps more
forceful means qpuld be employed.
Attitudes formed by visitors ok
■earing » few Aggie rowdies de
tnlcts from the glory of going to
A. A M.'and is highly detrimental
to tjie school and its former stu-
' • • ' ; V.
We de not advocate stilted man
nerisms—they might tend to de
stroy self-expressiveness—but sure
ly no Aggie likes to be spoken of
as being uncouth, ill-mannered
The point, then, ia: Behave as you
ha\- been uught shd do as you
know is right!

traits and eventalenU largely by
means of the “Conditioned nMkx”:

say that the man's face is red. that
