              EDITORIALLY SPEAKING
Editors Place Blame
A few irresponsible freshmen have done serious damage
to the reputation of their class and to the Fresno Stati
College student body. But they were not the only ones t<
blame. The Student Court, in a legal sense, has asked that
the responsibility be laid upon the class as n whole. Why!
This is why. The class was given the privilege of havir
an annual activity on campus. Frosh classes of the past have
not abused this privilege. The activity, a part of the Frosh-
Soph Brawl, was as usual totally unsupervised by the administration or any faculty sponsors. Responsibility for the
affair was left in the hands of the Freshman leaders
who failed to live up to that responsibility.
This year individuals in plain sight of all participating.
broke State laws and acted in a disgraceful manner by drinking on campus and stealing and destroying school property.
Now.  before anyone  g.*-< off half-cocked  talking about
how kids will lie kids and how unfair it is to "
reputation of the whole freshman class for the
let's take these facts into consideration.

The editors feel justified in using the strongest wor
ondemn the freshmen who were on the new campus the
night of Oct. 25. Few schools give their students as much
freedom as does FSC. It seems apparent now the students
were given too much freedom. The freshmen leaders were
given a responsibility that was more than they could handle.
The school officials probably won't let it happen again. The
whole student body will stiff, r and possibly lose some privileges. The officials will feel none of us can be trusted.
The Collegian uses this unfortunate incident as a public
••sample. Individuals and groups, students or administration,
will obtain no mercy from this paper if they break laws,
abuse trusts or otherwise do inexcusable wrong. Student
leaders must take their responsibilities seriously.
The Collegian lacks the court's recommendations t<
Student Council to require the freshman class pay for the
missing items and the damage done. We asked, along *
the court, that the class be censured and safeguard.-
proposed to insure that such disgraces do not occur in
future. Otherwise, the activity should be abolished.
