The Student’s Responsibility. I he good name of a school lies largely in the hands of its students. Generally speaking, the students reflect the character and the work of the school fairly accurately. At any rate the majority of those who have formed an opinion of a school, have formed it on the basis of their knowledge of the students who have come from that school. 1 he people are right in judging thus. The results of a school’s work must show itself in its students. There is no other place where it can show itself. The importance of a first impression is evident. If the first impression of a person is bad. it takes a great deal to change it; if it is good, the second and third impressions, if bad. are excused. And what is still more to the point, often there is only one im- pression. and the judgment stands at that. 1 he student coming into contact with people gives them an impression of himself personally and also of the school. He who has a right respect for himself, wishes to win the respect of those about him. A good student wishes to have a good opinion of his school spread abroad. I he student’s responsibility rests just here, that in his conduct and life he show earnestness and sincerity, so that he may win the confidence of those who come into contact with him. and that at the same time he sets the good name of his school high in the opinion of the people. By appreciating rightly this responsibility, more can be done towards drawing new students to the school than by any other means. The student who knows that he has been benefited by his stay at school, would like to see others have the same opportunity. Let him point the way.
