As they leave, they bear v ' iih them the memory of their freshman days wIkii Yeshiva had not yet emerged from its experi- mental .stage, when an air of hesitant uncertainty, though permeated by a spirit of optimism, per- vaded its halls. This year ' s graduates have ac- tively participated in the transition from the pro- bative period of the school to its establishment on a sound and secure basis. The college has now achieved a position where criticism, rather than weakening its stability and endangering its future existence, actually contrib- utes in no little degree to its improvement and continued expansion. A student organization, pulsating with life, is the most sensitive barometer of the success or failure of any institution of learning. The authorities of Yeshiva College need not view the development of a forceful, as- sertive student body with apprehension.

The Commentator has entered upon a com- mendable course. In its vigorous and forceful ap- proach to questions of vital importance to the student body, questions of Jewish, national, and international significance, as well as problems of an institutional nature, it has announced its in- tention of attacking all problems op)en-mindedly, critically, frankly, and constructively. It has focu.sed the attention of both students and authori- ties on matters fundamental to the continued success of the institution and the strengthening of its position as the center of Onhodox Judaism in . merica. toreover the Commentator has served and. we hope, will continue to serve as a guide to the .idministration in the development of aca- demic policies. . warning must be sounded, however, against any attempt at the suppression or censorship of student expression.
