what a liberal education in the
United States has come TO be. II

a choice between prunes and bread
pudding for dessert, but aside from
that you can't have anything diff
ferent from other fellow and you
can't have any more.
These table d'hote dinners are
founded on the notion that all hu-
man animals are about alike in their
gastronomic needs and tastes. The
assumption works fairly well in
most cases, individuality in eating
not being of any special value. And
the Bachelor of Arts degree is
founded on the notion that all bows

their mental needs and tastes. That
assumption is fundamentally wrong.
because they differ. and the first
purpose of education should be to
keep them different, to develop
their differences. If a man does
anything of unusual value. it is be-
cause he is a different sort of man.
The average man does the average
thing. An army of mediocrities is
what the colleges produce, when
they oush to above all to be ma

special aptitudes and develop those

the live part of college life. 1t is
~colorful spontaneous exciting, bar
barous. 1t gives a man a good train
