Show "Getting By" in College False Doctrine for the Student to Hold ' ' . By DEAN SCOTT H. GOODNIGHT, University of Wisconsin: The legend that "getting by" in college courses is sufficient is a falax doctrine. Don't let anybody tell you that it doesn't pay to put great effort ef-fort into one's college work, that college work is impracticable and that to "get by" is all that is uecessnry. . It pays very handsomely, to do high-grade work in college, both hi satisfactions and. recognitions obtained during the courses, and in good positions in the business and .professional world that are always waiting i for, men who have excelled in their college work. : v : , ' ; I The mental satisfactionof a job well done will bring not only mo . raentary sense of triumphs because of achievement, which is gratifying in' i elf, but it -is also aceomp'anied by a consciousness of increased powev.. arid renewed confidence in yourself. It becomes a big factor in the all important process of our growth and development. , |
