and I think this would be q
mistake. They have been so
close all their lives. 1t is
time for them to get out on
their own.
An important consideration
is the fact that Jack is a
much-better student than
Gary. He walks of with all
the awards and is always in
the limelight. Gary is proud
Of him, but he needs a chance
to shine on his own.
Gary My parents are
so worried about my ego.
They seem to think I may
feel small just because my
brother Is so good. That Just
isn't so. Not many guys can
keep up with Jack-so I'm
not the only one.
It just happens that we
both want the same school
and the same major. The
college is known for its ex-
cellent engineering depart
ment. I may not be- accepted
because Of my marks but If
I am I want to go.
Aside from that, Jack and
I enjoy one another's COM
pany. When we aren't with
a group we are usually to-
gether and we are never
bored.
THE COUNCILS VIEW
A very important aspect
Of college life is the break
ing Of some of the old pat
terms. Most college freshmen
find themselves entirely on
their own for the first time
away from all the old
sources of security. The sit
uation has all the elements
Of being plunged into cold
water to learn swimming.
If the twins go to the same
college they will show up
with water wings. They will
have one another as defenses
against an entirely new So
cial situation.
The concern about Jacks
superior abilities as q stu
dent is Just one side Of the
issue. Actually, Jack may be
rather dependent upon Gary
socially, and Gary may be
the stronger Of the two in a
psychological sense. Depend
ency Of some sort must exist
or they would welcome the
chance to go separate ways.
Gary and Jack should be
given q complete explana-
ton Of why 1t would be best
for them to go to different
schools, but the final decision
should be up to them.
