Professor AIunsterburg Believes Many
American Professors should BE Killed.
Chicago. Jan. 24.-In an address to
the Germanist.e Society of Chicago. in
Fullerton Hall, last night. Professor
Hugo Munsterburg OF Harvard Univer-
sity. declared that American universe
ties would be better of II two-thirds
Of the professors were killed.
He said: There seems to be some
thing weak and mollicoddIe about our
whole academic system. In our high
est institutions of learning, we find,
with few notable exceptions only
second class men. And we may be sure
second-class school masters never will
build up first-class scholarship.
IAN increase In the salaries of the
assistant professors and instructors in
our colleges and universities by q few
hundred dollars a year, will never ac-
compllsh anything. What is needed is
great premiums at the top.
zone of the greatest evils from
which our American UNIVERSITIES sur
fers. Is too great an abundance OF the
men. AS soon as an institution gets
some money, the first thought is to add
more men to the faculty. to out-do
some neghbor institution. Every one
of our American universities would be
carer to the ideal If 1t would kill two
thirds of its instructors and profess
sors."
