The purpose
of the Collegian
The turmoil surrounding the Dairy Cdafcgian bet spring hat not
been forgotten as the paper resumes its 61st year of publication
today.
The Coltgain received a variety of crihcmm from factions of the
school population for its coverage of campus events. Meinbeis of
the Associated Students Senate voiced the strongest rmmyproi'fil.
charging Editor in Chaef Wayne Agner with racism, unrespon
iivanass to students and overal poor performance as editor.
Al of which brings about a very important question: Just what
purpose does the Do*V Cnlajaon serve anyway?
That same query was ranted more than 44 years ago. The!
then editor oi the Comssjion, using what turned out to be exceptional foresight, responded eloquently on March 1, 1938 with a
three poant answer that is just as r sis vent now as it was then. |
The primary reasonable wrote, why a college newspaper exists
are:
"1. To gather and dmaemanaH accounts of al activities on
campus, to be fair in such treatment, to assign space to stories
according to their value rather than attempt to tickle anyone's
vanity.
"2. To adopt an exatonal pobcy that reflects — as ctosety as it is
poesable to determine — the opinion of a masonry of the students.
At any rate, al editorials are luppossd to reflect not the official
colege attitude, but the opinion of the (edrtonaJ board).
"3. To grve students witerested in jourrmamm an opportunity to
get a working knowledge of the newspaper profession, if such it
may be riled "
The 0m% Crilsjjan shouid — and ami — ofler praise when it is
due. At the same time, however, this paper wil not shy away from
its right to comment or criticism. For no one — whether it be the
university president, student body president or Doiry Colepon
editor — * so perfect as to be above criticism.
It is, in fact, our duty to point out where weaknesses exist in
order that they may be corrected.
Whenever that duty is nsajsctsd. or whenever a colegi news
paper is cootioted by higher-ups to the point where it can only
write that "everything is just fine," it has faaaxi to justify to purpose,
h becomes rnerefy a news buletin without a heart or soul, and for
