THERE ' S A NEW STUDENT There ' s a new student at Kansas State. He brings new theories, new needs and new, challenging ques- tions. Some say you can spot him by his discharge button, but a more infallible way is to observe his attitude in class. He is serious and constructive. The questions he asks reflect his recognition of the need for an in- telligent understanding of problems at hand. He sel- dom deals in snap judgments — thorough study and research are the basis for his conclusions. It may be true that he looks much like any ski-sweat- ered collegian on the campus, but mentally he is dif- ferent; for the past few years have changed him. The people and the cultures he saw in Europe, Asia, India or Japan have enlarged immeasurably his conception of human possibilities and frailties. Our new student is not only changing the campus atmosphere; he is altering the world atmosphere. No longer is the world a place where man merely exists and hopes for the best Fate may will him. The new student has had enough of Fate and defeatism. In- terested in world affairs, he is demanding world logic in place of provincial prejudice. Yes, there ' s a new student — a new campus — and a new conception of the world.
