The New Republic in a fearless expose says: "College students are more or less naughty. They have a good deal of experimenting to do." And if one doesn't believe it, here are the shocking details: "The coeds smoke. At Vassar, 433 of them." The wicked place! How long has this coed business been going on?
That impeccable magazine, Motion Picture Classic, disputes with Vanity Fair the right to tell the American people how to do what when. In a current advertisement it asks these questions of a baffled public:

If Motion Picture Classic would curry favor at the University, it is suggested that it ask and answer such questions as the following:
"Do you know what is the correct procedure when a professor fails to appear at eight minutes past the hour? Do you know what fashion dictates to be worn at parties in Big Tree? Can you rise and depart in the middle of a lecture which bores you with perfect, equanimity?"
