IT £S WORTH
WHILE
Middle Georgia College,
Oct. 18, 1931
Oh, shucks! Is it worth while?
Everybody is letting their children
do as they please. Other schools
and Colleges are making rules and
regulations as lenient as they can
possibly be made to hold the least
bit of self-respect because pupils
seem to decide to what school they
will go and since the road of least
resistance appeals to the lazy and
indifferent we often think that pu
pils and parents are deciding for the
wide open disciplined school. But if
the readers of this paper could have
the opportunity of reading my let
ters they would appreciate the ef
forts of those schools and colleges
tha tare still holding to the idea
that are still holding to the idea
very definitely in their morals as
well as their studies. And, strange
to say, pupils themselves do not re
spect teachers or institutions that
fail to properly enforce regulations
that are reasonable. We have just
as many letters from students .as
from parents thanking us for what 1
Middle Georgia College has meant to
them in making them think seriously
about life’s problems and pleasures.
I quote from a parent’s letter this
week: “I have heard so many com
plimentary remarks about your
school and the way you manage it.
I would like to add mine to the list.
I watch with interest the progress
of your school and especially since
you 'have my boy with you. He is
delighted and likes his teachers
very much. I wish it were possible
for me to know each one of them
"that I might follow more closely his
progress.”
■Yes, teachers and administrators,
it makes a difference when we have
our'troy or girl in school. Every
'pupil-'has ■ a parent at home who is
'intensely interested in his child at
your college. The college authori
ties'and teachers are standing loco
parentis. This college boy or girl is
my Child when he is in my college
andT must have an abiding interest
m 'his every act, thought, and finally
in the result of his training.

LINE UP
The students and faculty of Mid
dle Ga. College were very glad to
learn that they are going to get a
new dormitory soon. The Board of
Trustees decided during the last
meeting Friday, October 9, 1931, to
build us another dormitory in order
to get all tile students on the cam
pus. It will be for the boys who
are now down at the Peacock Dor
mitory. It will have about sixty
well furnished rooms. We do not
know the exact location now but it
will be conveniently situated on the
lower end of the campus.
Mr. Dunwoody is to be the arehi- :
tect and supervisor. It is not yet
known whether the work, will be
contracted by the day or by the job.
We understand that the work will
begin at once and we hope the build
ing will soon be ready for use.
