'The Prefects are soft this year. 'These guys let you get away with murderl' If I'd done that in my New Boy year. . . Such comments do not sound foreign to us- we hear them every year. Our treatment as New Boys was always rougher, tougher, and meaner than that of our successors. The Prefects in our year were always ogres compared to the softies that succeeded them. Why do we react in this way? Perhaps we are merely asserting what we wish to believe. Perhaps our new outlook has distorted our vision. Perhaps we want to impress the New Boys. Perhaps the Prefects are softer . We must examine the reasons behind this New Boy System of ours - and I mean the reasons of 1967, not of 1867. No inflexible institution will survive the test of time. We must change with the timesg we must re-assess our aimsg we must re-locate our emphasis. The New Boy System of 1967 must involve communica- tion, it must involve understanding, and it must involve guidance. And how can any of these principles be fulfilled, if the New Boy is territied of the Prefect? How can there be guidance, understanding, or cooperation if the New Boys see the Prefects not as advisers, but as tyrants? There is no excuse for a New Boy Systemin 1967 unless that system incorporates guidance. There can be no guidance in a system based on fear and intimidation. A balance is called for - a balance between guidance and discipline. Too much of one destroys the other - the balance is indeed a delicate one. In the past, discipline has been dominantg but in our attempt to remedy this, we must not ignore discipline, without which we can have no respect. This year we are attempting to locate this balance. We do not claim to have found it- perhaps we have come close. But ifwe keep this balance in mind, if we base our actions upon lhiS thinking, and if succeeding Sixth Forms do the same, then perhaps, one of these years, we will find the answer. - JC.I-IM.
