THE POSTWAR CURRICULUM

for the courage and the ability not to
follow in the worlds work, but to lead.
Whence will our leaders come if
not from the colleges?
Now I a1n eoing - be radical to
the extent of saying that there is not
so great need to change the content
of the postwar curriculum as there
is need to change the administration
of the individual courses of study.
We cannot ignore the appeal of the
practical or vocation courses if we
would save the College from extinc-
ton; we dare not overlook the claim
of the humanities if we would save a
civilization from decay.
We find at every turn a generous
interest to supply the machinery of
education, but where the supreme lack
seems to be is in the failure of this
elaborate machinery to yield COM
mensurate results.
l would enumerate the chief causes
of the failure of the College to pay
its dividends in service to the COM
munity as follows:
Where Colle9eS faii.
1. Lack of real inspiration in a
great amount of the so-called teaching
that is done.
2. Failure to discipline the students
! by requiring careful, steady, accurate,
painstaking work.
3. The disposition to enervation
| that is brought about by working down
| to the students in easy courses rather
| than risk unpopularity by maintain
| ing rigid standards of mature, vigor-
Gus and well-balanced thought.
| 4. The prevalence of too frequent
and too frivolous diversions that stul-
tify the aspiration for entertainment
of a more intellectual and less sensa-
tional order.
| 5. The overemphasis of the just
claims of recreation as opposed to the
under-emphasis of the vitalizing value
of hard work.
6. The size of the classes. The
| classes are too large to permit the
individual guidance on the part of
the instructors without which college
| teaching ceases to me a creative art,
but degenerates instead into occupa-
tional drudgery.
Unless the American College of Lib
eral Arts has special mission, un-
less it serves adequately a distinct
need, it will surely and swiftly be-
come topic for antiquarian research.
1t has special mission. This mis-
sion is the moulding of it's students
through discipline of mind and body
for the business of world leadership.
Depth Is Needed.
The professional schools, law, medi-
cine, education, are very willing to
admit that the leaders in the profes-
sions are those who have brought to
the professions not only the special
skill or training of the calling, but
the broad, deep and thorough training,
in addition, which it is the special
business of the course in liberal arts
to impart.
There is much to do, or rather, to
undo, in order to achieve the results
that will save the College and restore
5 it to its one time position of acknowl
r edged usefulness and unquestioneC
:, prestige. 1t is not difficult to point
!. out the special weaknesses which the
+ public expects the College to correct

The Postwar Curriculum.

Time was, whenever the curriculum
| came up for discussion, that the issue
seemed pitched between the adherents
of the humanities on the one hand
and the advocates of vocational train
| ing on the other. Whatever was
wrong was because they had had
either too little or too much of the
classics or of the manual and indus
| tial arts. And business and practical
life and the schools were the cruel
| bles in which the product was tried ;
| and we shall all have to admit that as
| far as public opinion went, the crucf-
| BILE test seemed to develop on the part
of the employing public especially, a
prejudice against the college.
A young person VINO applied for a
position the day after commencement
was found some time later to have
had so much practical training and
so little of what was fondly regarded
as cultural in the te-Bolshevik days
that he was not deemed "a grow
ing man. by the head of the firm, be
the firm industrial or educational. An
other young person would find that all
his fine sympathy engendered through
four years of communion with the
sad, unhappy, far-off days and bat
ties long ago." was worse than wasted
Why had the old dean given him q
smoky torch instead Of an electric
fiash-light to illumine his steps? Why
had he not been shown the romance
of empire building, and why had he
not been made to feel the thrill Of
the revolutionizing of industry as these
wonders are going on in his own day
and age? He muses. He would have
taken this or that "practical' course
