MEANINGLESS DEGREES


This is the season of the year
when not a few of our so-called
colleges and universities break
loose in the matter of comforting
degrees. SO unreasonable and
rampant are some of these insti-
tutiOns in the degree conferring
business. that they seem to know
no bounds.
Campbell College, an institu-
tiOn, we believe. started under the
auspices of the African Methodist
Episcopal Church. in jackson.
Mississippe, seems, however, for
this year to have taken first prize.
Not content with conferring all
kinds of honorary d. DIS and
Ii. DIS, it has actually gone a
step further than any other Euro
pean or American college that we
know of and conferred the homo
rary degree of Ph. d.
If the trustees and faculty Oi
Campbell College do not know.
they should know that the degree
of Ph. d. is never an honorary
one; that it is never conferred by
any institution except upon a per-
son who has actually won the dis
tinction by actual residence and
actually pursuing the regular
course of study on the grounds.
Campbell College should be
ashamed of itself.
1t is Just this kind of thing
that hurts us, and if it goes on, we
predict that the time viii soon
come when the State Legislators
will either refute the charters of
such colleges or will refuse to
