Intelligence is unequally bestowed. Native endowments differ. Talents are unevenly distributed among any college or other group. But the race is not always won by those whom Nature selects as the swift. You may not realize it, but the ancient fable of the hare and the tortoise is illustrated anew every year on our own and every other campus. The tragedy of college life is that so many students who might be rated excellent are content with being good, and that others who could be good are only fair or average, sometimes even poor. College diplomas and college degrees have both intrinsic and marketable values which differ as widely as do the grades of wheat brought from the har- vest field to the elevators; or the fruit from the orchard after it has been grad- ed and sized for the market; or the coal that has passed over the screen after it has been mined. Two years or four in college offers one his finest opportunity for an edu- cation, but even more for making a reputation, for finding the tag by which he will long be labeled and appraised. They constitute an elaborate grading and sifting process as a result of which we go out ticketed prime, first class, A one, or seconds, medium, short, or something lower in the scale. Your actual value, your reputation and your marketability are determined by several factors, and of these, only one, your I. Q., seems to be fixed unal- terably. Your mdustry can rise or fall in the scale as you will have it. Depend- ability can be achieved if you think it worth while to do so. Politeness is as easy to learn and then make habitual in the life of the average as of the bril- liant student. Good health and good English, too, are within the reach of the rank and file of men and women. Friendliness, sympathy, patience, sincer- ity, cooperation, impartiality, idealism, desire to serve, - these and many other qualities increase or lack of them detracts from the marketability of the ser- vices of any teacher. High I. Q. ' s never guarantee high scholarship, for such scholarship is likely to require persistent application, industry, hard work, if you please. But even high scholarship needs the re-enforcement which only such factors as those listed above can give to place and keep a teacher in the preferred class. — Dr. Engleman.
