Show Woe to all of you students, serious or otherwise, who once again are faced with that time when only the valiant shall survive. Finals once again raise the ugly Hydra-headed monster of procrastination, inattention, and apathy. Once more the student who didn't crack a text all quarter has become an avid reader. Once again the class sleeper has become a No-Doz No-Doz addict. Once again, those class cutters are seen running about campus borrowing notes from friends. What are the results of all these quarter-end runs? Lo and behold, when finals are through, the good students end up with the same grades as the poor students. Quarter after quarter, your fearless "Chronicle" has carried car-ried out a valiant campaign to get the administration to end classes on a Wednesday so students will have at least half a week to study or steal notes ; bribe or butter up professors ; and for all to read their text. But alas, all this has been to no avail. We are still faced with only a week-end to do this staggering stag-gering amount of paper and running work. (Notice how we at the "Chronicle" stop publication on Wednesday. ) Alack, our pleas to the administration have fallen upon deaf ears and mute tongues. Cheer up, you poor, "huddled" masses, yearning to be free. The "Chronicle," peerless crusader that we are, has an idea for a new honor code. DON'T STUDY FOR FINALS ! In this way no unfair grades are given to the late studiers. Go to a show before finals. Swear off stimulants . . . avoid arrest by the narcotics squad. Don't crack that book, burn it. If we all strive together, who knows . . . maybe finals will just fade away . . . |
