WIDER INTERESTS.

Among the resolutions for the New Year the undergraduate might well resolve to take a greater and wider interest in the affairs of the time. Europe begins another year of blood; the United States enters upon another election year to determine issues which may affect the world's destiny; men are struggling to behold an era of progress emerge from the present chaos.

The special interest clubs and the Forum need support. And periodicals and daily newspapers contain material for an education in themselves. If industriously read they will to some extent replace Professor Copeland's suggested course on general information. In passing, it may be repeated that the Library can assist in extending the undergraduate's current knowledge and interest by instituting a newspaper reading room. And the Union would also render an excellent service if it would keep its magazines up-to-date and accessible to readers.
