feel- ings of classmates and teachers l Many lany any there there- are who plan deliberately to be a hour half-hour late to their nine o'clock classes on stormy mornings They fake an excuse and as one of them put it The teacher never reports me Tardiness is usually unnecessary and so generally inexcusable It decays roll- roll calls and recitations and disturbs cla class s work often it creates confusion breaking breaking breaking break break- ing in on some discussion by the teacher or student It is a relic of the kindergarten kindergarten kindergarten kinder kinder- garten and chart class days and is chronic with many in the University These make mak a practice as they go from one class to another of loitering in the halls or on the stairs or else they block the doors of the buildings and rooms rooms- holding holding- little confabs Instead of hurrying hurrying hur- hur when they go from one building to another for classes many lag leisurely behind to gossip p-ossip or talk to their hearts desire This vicious habit works an injustice not only on the hard worked teachers but also on those students who are attending the institution for the the- purpose purpose purpose pur
