OSTON UNIVERSITY has a great variety of organizations. A glance at the data listed on both sides of the senior pictures will show that the student may participate in as many dif- ferent organizations as his time schedule will permit. Find the out- standing students and you will discover that their activities extend beyond the classroom to participation in several organizations. In helping these groups they have immeasurably enriched their own lives. It is the policy of the University to cooperate with all the various organizations and to aid them in furthering their aims and ideals. But the University also serves as a Hnancial watchdog, making sure that no economically unsound ventures are entered into. Occasionally the exigencies of University formalities either cause delay or prevent a group from embarking upon some enterprise, but the openminded will understand the necessity of proceeding with care in order to pre- clude the possibility of giving the University a blackeye. These organ- izations of the University are excellent media through which the students can really prove their mettle. The classroom can provide but a supericial criterion and erroneous estimate of a student, while fraternities or sororities offer acquaintanceship with a very limited group. It is in organizations that one Witnesses revelations, for there is nothing like working with a fellow to show up his good and bad points. Many a student has discovered unsuspected abilities through his work with such groups. They do much to give the student confi- dence in himself which the classroom sometimes denies. The time and effort put into organizations is given because the student desires to, but the truism that you get as much out of anything as you put into it is still operative in this case. If a student neglects organizational ac- tivity he neglects his education.
