IMS BATTALION EDITORIALS . . . itui ) e Shall kiitor tk* The truth Shmil tiulrr ton t'nrt And John fcjff i\o Excuse Now Of mII the utterances a freshman uses the most ovur- worketl is. “No excuse, sir " From the fimt day of New StiKWnt Week, “fish" are drilled to take the r«sj>onsitility for their actions no matter what the consequences And yet, w hen a new student is late fe too many) "fish" were act ually deprived of the dignity and comradship long a part of the Corps and were thus cheated out a chance to fairly appraise A&M and the Corps of Cadets before deciding to pack up and leave. Because of these men who did not get a fair return for their investment in time and money the Corps has under gone some radical changes. Princijwil among these is the basic policy outlined by Vice President Rudder in a meeting Monday with the three upper classes "See how much you can do FOR the freshihen —not how much you can do to them.” With the continuing support of this doctrine by every upperclassman in the Corps, freshmen will no kmger be able to saddle the Corps with their inadequacies or failure This year's program was carefully designed to give fourth class- men every opportunity to adjust to college life and the Corps of Cadets. Freshmen will l»e treated as subordinates but not as inferiors as has been the case in ears past. Supervision and regular checks on progress offered by “Grade Point Army" is unequalled. Nowhere do entering freshmen have as mam - older men concerned with their scholastic well-being and general contentment. Along with the changes in attitude toward academics, discipline, too, has been revised to hiake it more reasonable and more applicable to real military situations. Hazing per s^ is a product of college and not regular military life. Correction given by an officer to one his junior is direct and explicit but seldom administered in a fashion that would antagonize the recipient. The Corps is now attempting to grew up with the freshman—for up perclassmen cannot expect the “fish" to tie ovsiel cadets when they are exposed to a constant parade of high school ROTC antics from their cadet officers and NC-O’s. The Corps is no longer the perfect excuse for a fresh man’s short-comings. If anything, the Corps now offers him more advantages than he would find elsewhere in a college of this size. So when the time come# for the men to l>e separated from the boy* there should be none attnl*- uting their classification as boys to the Corps. Grand Point Army will do its jiart in providing the at mosphere and assistance freshmen want anti need. If a fourth classman’s cxjierience here is not a happy and pros perous one, the cause rests not with the Corps but with the individual. hr jim Fnrir Who's Hero At Aggteland ‘Red Cloud’ Isn't an Indian But He Has Been To India "Don’t worry about classes being hard! survived Freshmen Week, didn’t you?"
