Optimism Reigns

In spite of their experiences at
the University these students are
genuinely optimistic about the
future. Most faculty members go
out of their way to be nice to
them in classes where many of
the students are hostile, they point
out. One of the students, George,
has been selected by the University
as a counselor.

They have confidence that in
time, change and assimilation will
come. Luke was amazed at how
few brothers opposed his admission
when he rushed fraternities.
