Scholarship and School Spirit If one has no school spirit he is a slacker, and probably will be through the rest of his life. So let’s take an active part in the activities of the school, and we will be sure to make better and more prosperous citizens. STUDENTS are beginning to learn that the standards of scholarship are much higher in college than in high school. In using the term “scholarship” it should not be confined to one’s ability to learn, or one’s knowledge of economics, education, history or sociology; we consider this as only one-half of the term. The other half is success in extracurricula activities, the ability and willingness to adjust oneself to one’s environment; good, wholesome school spirit. It has been proved by different educationalists that scholarship and success in extra-curricula activities go hand in hand. Although many students say as an alibi, “I came to college to get an education,” and use the term education as meaning book knowledge only. Coaches have found that students who come to college solely to play football are not always the best football players. A young man who is strong and brawny in stature, right away thinks he will make a star football player. With his strength he can keep any man from the goal—not only his opponents, even his own men. As soon as the ball gets into his hands, he runs with the ball, feeling that he must win the game alone and that his strength is sufficient to do it. Let me compliment the young man upon his morale, but it takes more than morale on the gridiron. Coaches have experienced this many times and have come to the conclusion that “brain is superior to brawn.” Many a’player who is short in stature but quick and ac- curate in thinking has replaced another player who was large in body but slow and inaccurate in mind. A student who hopes to attain the highest scholarship must, as has been stated, adjust himself to his environment. He must remember and believe that “time” is the one commodity of which all of us have an equal amount. The story of man’s progress, both as an individual and as a race, shows that efficient utilization of time means successful achievement. Therefore in order for an individual to obtain the highest scholarship possible he must be able to engage successfully in extra-curricula activities, which aid in the development of personality; he must know the value of time, his study must be correlated so as to be of practical benefit to society as well as to himself; he must remember the old quotation, “Scholarship without good breeding is but half an education”; he must further develop a keen interest in his school, and if his school is not just what he would like for it to be, let him remember that— “Real schools aren’t made by students afraid Lest somebody else gets ahead. When everyone works and nobody shirks You can raise a school from the dead. And if while you earn the honors you crave, Your neighbor may earn some, too. Your school will be what you want it to be. It isn’t your school, it’s you.” PAGE 2
