Both this year and last the association of the University with Summer Military Camps for college men has caused concern among its members. It is seen "standing pat" for the old established order of War; and losing its reputation as a seat of learning and enlightenment. Aside from the practical merits of the question of military force and equipment, this fear seems unnecessarily exaggerated. The University will be termed reactionary by very few for supporting a camp which the government considers of value in the maintaining of an army, for with Mexican intervention imminent, and a standng force too small even to patrol our southern borderline, very few will feel that the United States over-emphasizes the military.
