The Problem

We believe that some intelligent effort should be made to relate the various cultural activities of students. The idea of young men sitting solemnly round reading their own efforts in silk pyjamas is more than slightly nauseating to the average active student.

Probably what is most urgently needed is encouragement for students to form their own standards of judgment, judgment that will be invaluable in estimating the worth of contemporary literature, art and music other than Pix, Brick Bradford and "swing." Admittedly these standards ultimately depend on one's own reading. But a University where a number of people interested in the arts are concentrated, provides an excellent chance for enlarging views and tastes by interchange of ideas.
