October 24, 1946 Editorial- Teacher Student Relations: I think much is to be gained from realizing, as students, that teachers are human too. They are responsible for your education, proper conduct and general welfare some seven hours each day. Our teachers are at all times striving to give us advice and help on methods of study or specific problems. They have much to bring us from their varied backgrounds and experience.
