DELAWARE COLLEGE REVIEW.
WE ARE glad that th e cu s to m 0f h az ing has
been stricken off th e plea s ure- roll of stud e nts
at most of our colle ges. It is a cu s ton\ that
never brou g ht pleasure to any on e, but, on th e
other hand, needless trouble, ex pe nse, and
pain. Like many oth e r b a rb rou s cu stom s,
it was only a n atural resu lt, tha t as we b ecam e
more enlightened, th e thou g ht with t.h e cu stom has been discarde d.
Thi s we think is
the manner in whi ch a ll common -se nse a nd
well-bred p ersons vie w th e s ubj ect, ye t, th e re
are a fe w in coll eges who a re unwillin g to
obey the sound and common -se nse prece pts,
that good jud g m e nt di c ta tes.
Th e few who
are at D e lawa re College Je t th e m e lves loose
on the evening of th e 1oth in st., a nd tri ed to
revive the old custom, but in va in. Afte r a few
wea k e fforts to di sturb th e sl um be r of those
who la bor dili z,e ntly to in stru c t th e m , th ey for

hostile to a fellow stud ent, a nd tried to h aze
him, the offe nse wo uld not have b een so g reat,
but when th e y assa il professors, who h a ve but
lately c ome among us, a nd h ave, s ince th eir firs t
appearance, bee n kind, soci bl e a nd indul ge nt,
we think they were ac tin g th e p a rt of un ge ntl €men in th e ex tre m e, an d h ere we d esir e to
inform those who luve bee n o ffe nd ed, th a t th e
majority of th e students look up o n th e affa ir as
base and ungra t e ful.
affo rd. Th e re are a numb e r of s pare room s in
