CRIBBiNG ON DECREASE.
Dishonesty in Classroom at University
Is Confined Mainly to Freshmen.

Cribbing at the University of Wis
consin is decreasing and is confined
largely to members of the freshmen
class, according to report just issued
by the faculty committee on dishon-
esty, which has made lengthy in
vestigation of the cribbing evil. Most
of the members of the committee do
not favor the introduction of the So
called honor SYSTEM" whereby all
students are placed On their honor to
refrain from cribbing and to report
classmates guilty of dishonesty in
school work. The professors have
been unable to decide whether the
prevalence of cribbing among fresh
men is due to ideas brought up from
the high schools, or whether it is true
that more freshmen are caught crib
bling because they do not do the work
as skillfully as those students who
have been i'll the university longer.

EACH STUDENT COSTS $500.
President Van Hise Shows Legisla-

President Van Hise Shows Legisla-
tive Committee Cost of instructions.
That the cost to the state for in
struction of each student at the Uni
versity of Wisconsin is approximate
ly 500 a year was shown by Presi-
dent Van Hise in the hearing on the
regular university bills before the
committees on education and claims
in the legislature. He pointed out
that each student costs the state
more than this amount failed to take
into consideration the fact that the
budget of the university included the
cost of extension work, farmers in
stitutes, Investigations and demon
STATIONS in agriculture. engineering,
letters and science, all of which is
carried on for the ebenefit of the
whole state and which is not for the
students at Madison at all.
The university, the president point
ed out, has a threefold duty-the in
struction of students at Madison, in
vestigation and research and the ex-
tension work Any consideration of
the cost of maintaining the institution
therefore must include these three
parts of the university work
IF there is any doubt which it is
wisest for the state to support, in
struction or investigation, | believe a
much stronger claim can be made for
investigation and research than for
the instruction of Students said
President Van Hise, since instruction
is for the few thousand students at
Madison, while the investigation and
research is for the two and half
million people of the statc.'
In taking up the need of larger in
come the president showed that dur
ing the past three years the attend
ance of the university has grown
from 3.571 to about $500, a gain of
nearly 1000 students, or % per cent.
On this basis he estimated that dur
ing the next two years the increase
would be not less than Is per cent,
and in all probability will be consid-
erably more.-W.
