Student Self-Government.

The individuality which most dis
tinguishes the University of California
is student self government, which was
introduced in 1906. and has been car
ried farther than in any other educa-
tional institution in the world
Rhe discipline of the undergraduates
has been intrusted to the students affairs
committee. which has jurisdiction over
all ofenses against good order and hon.
orable conduct. 1t consists of five seniors
appointed by the president of the Asso-
clated Students, who Is elected by the
votes OF the undergraduates. The COM
mlttee has no legal existence, but is sus-
tanned by the president of the university,
the academic council, the faculty, the re-
gents and, more than all, by student pub
lie opinion. which Is the pulwark of it's
influence and authority. The intention
is to select seniors of recognized integri-
ty, common sense, soundness of judg-
ment and courage, who can be depended
upon to impartially investigate offenses
and apply such correctives and penalties
as they believe to be necessary. 1t is
the function of this committee to sum-
mon before 1t all students accused of in
fractions Of we'll recognized but unwrit-
ten rules Of the university, to hear their
own statements of the case, to compare
them with what other witnesses have to
say. to collect and carefully weigh all
evidence pertinent to the case. and to
make recommendations based thereon to
the president of the university.
President Wheeler tells me that he has
cordially approved every verdict that has
ever been rendered to him by this COM
mittee, and has admired the high sense
of justice shown for the individual as
well the conscientious desire to pro-
tect the good name of the institution
that has been manifest in every case.
The faculty and the board of regents
have never interfered. The culprit in
every case has submitted to the penalty
pronounced by his comrades without pro-
test. just as the student body have con-
Cured in the acquittal of one who has
been accused.
What would happen if an offender
should refuse to submit to the penalty
imposed by this unauthorized tribunal?"
/ asked.
"Such a case is not supposable," re-
piled President Wheeler. Student public
opinion makes it impossible for any one
to defy the committee. The penalty Is
seldom published: when a student is con-
victed Of wrong-doing he is qiuetly ad-
vised to withdraw from the university,
and he disappears without explanation.
He dare not remain"
