...arises, how it can be changed. The faculty is utterly powerless. If more strict police measures are adopted the evil will be stimulated. Is there another way than by interference on the part of students themselves? Would not a trial of offenders by their own mates so fortify the sentiment that should prevail, that a student would think no more of cribbing, even for forty or fifty per cent., than he would of making a plan for hazing? This is a question for students to consider, and this communication is written to ask for opinion either pro or con. There...
When Dr. Hale attempts to "put the same thing historically," he seems to forget that what was right and proper two centuries ago may be both wrong and improper to-day. Public sentiment and college sentiment once sanctioned a compulsory service; but compulsion then did not mean what compulsion means now.

The editorial department of a college paper must be critical at times, but, as the reflection of college sentiment, it is as often deprecatory of student shortcomings as of faculty haughtiness. That faculties dislike to be criticised is not true in the main, we think. No body of men like fault-finding; but good honest criticism, when well meant and of a "remedial" character must meet with respect anywhere...
