The age-old query relative to
the advantages and disadvantages
of co-educational colleges has
bobbed up again.
In a survey conducted at Notre
Dame, only 15 per cent of the
students said they regretted there
were no co-eds on the campus
One of the‘reasons for not want-
ing co-eds around was: "I don i
see how a fellow can learn any-
thing with them around.”
But to this Adele Sandman.
22, of Minneapolis, student at the
University of Chicago, replies:
“Probably if they got some wo-
men down there they would have
some real intellectual competi-
tion and have to study.”
Thus, the problem remains un-
solved. There are colleges for
girls, colleges for boys, and the:-
there are co-educational institu-
tions. It is up to the individual
to take his Dick.
The decision at Notre Dame
doesn’t actually reflect the sen-
timent of all men students. Since
there are co-eds at Notre Dam
and the students attending that
institution know that at the time
they pick the university as the1
alma mater . . . naturally, the
largest percentage would prefer
the exclusive man’s environment. September 15, 1904, Orville
