Tulane University Report

What will college education
be like a decade from now?
Will students pursue differ
ent kinds of programs, studying
in different ways and under
different methods of instruc-
ton? Will institutions them
selves change, in organization,
in overall goals? Or will things
be pretty much the same as
they are now?
Predictions about changes to
expect on the Nations cam
puses are made every day.
Often, however, they represent
individual opinions. Frequently,
they contradict each other.
Paul H. Davis, former general
secretary Of Stanford Univer-
sity and a former vice presi-
dent of Columbia University,
came up recently with some
forecasts with an unusually
broad basis: personal visits to
l24 American colleges and uni
versities and interviews with
several hundred faculty men,
bers and administrators at
those institutions.
After asking each of the per-
sons interviewed to look ahead
to 1870. Davis prepared a syn
opsis of their forecasts, which
sometimes overlapped. some
times conflicted, but neverthe-
less covered a wide range.
Findings Listed
1t is predicted. first off, that
college enrolment on the I'M
dergraduate level viii double by
1870 and will triple on the
graduate level.
However, the trend In in
creasing use of junior colleges
is expected to continue and by
the end OF the decade 1t Is ex-
pected that more than half Of
the lower-division students will
be enrolled In junior colleges.
Community colleges will also
continue to grow. and multiply,
probably doubling in number.
And their student enrolment
will increase three times over.
In the area of learning meth
DDS. a number Of developments
are foreseen. They include these
predictions:
Programmed learning, in
which machines. films, text
books. television, and other de-
vices are used. will replace the
present lecture system in more
than half OF the classes. The
gifted student will learn faster.
The average student will learn
better.
Students will be taught TO
teach themselves: the future
focus will be on learning rather
than teaching. Emphasis on
memory will decrease and en-

DIMENSION EDUCATION
Big Changes Sighted
For Colleges in 1870

| phaSlS on creatlVlty, attitudes
and values will increase.
Student programs will be
more meaningful because they
will be more tailored to the
individual student rather than
to a rigid curriculum. Students
will take a more enthusiastic
and active part in the learning
process. Attendance in class
will be voluntary.
The length of the traditional
36-week academic year will be
increased to 48 weeks, it is pre-
dicted. BY 1870 most graduates
with bachelor degrees will have
attended college less than four
years.
! Many colleges will qualify
their students for the masters
degree rather than the bache-
lor's degree: some will discon-
tinue the lower divisions en-
tirely and depend on junior
colleges for entering students;
others will continue their lower
divisions, but with new college
calendars which will enable stu
dents to obtain the masters
More for tools"
Increased use Of classroom
and laboratory facilities is also
seen. Such facilities, now used
about half Of the available time
in many institutions, will be
in use at least two thirds of
the time.
More for "TOOls"
At the same time, a higher
proportion Of college capital
expenditures. now used princi-
pally for buildings, will be used
for educational tools.
Salaries Of superior teachers
will double and triple by the
end Of the decade, 1t Is FORE
cast, But because Of improved
methods. the costs per student
will remain about the same, or
increase Just slightly.
Financial support OF higher
education by the Federal Gov
eminent will increase substan-
TALLY. 1t is predicted. And cor
porate gifts 10 colleges and
universities will increase from
$3.50 million TO $505 million.
Mr.. Davis includes In his re-
port one prediction OF his own.
II is this:

Dear DR.. Mason:
Our children fifth and sixth
graders) have come to dislike
homework. Their schools policy
from the earliest grades is to
give extra homework assign
ments on week ends to pupils
who have misbehaved during
the week. And when the class
in general is unruly they all
get an extra assignment.
This seems very unfair to
our children. What is your
opinion?-G. A., San Jose,
Calf.
School work should not be
associated with punishment.
When a history teacher as
signs a theme or written ex-
ercise to punish students for
misbehaving, he is making the
work of the English teacher
very difficult.
I suggest that you discuss
this with your principal or
counselor, in hopes that the
offending teachers can be in
fluenced without bringing still
more punishment on your chill
dren.

The Beige-Coated Figure
Is Always Beside Him
BY LEE WALSH

sentence she speaks. And it is not all Texas.
There is also the observation-disclosures ac-
cent. Even though she was born in Karnack,
Texas her Alabama mothers upbringing
comes through in all of her actions, even
in the 1860 campaign when she was used
as Spearhead for the drive for Southern
votes.
Today, Lady Bird Johnson faces the same
situation that BeSS Truman faced when
President Franklin D. Roosevelt died in office
AS always her innate good taste came to the
fore and she made no statements, although
her home State had been the one where the
President of the United States came face to
face with death
In newspaper stories, her life has always
been secondary to that of the Presidents
But there are those who wonder where the
energy comes from.
1t is not single energy There is the
Austin TV station which she owns. There
are the four ranches they both own. There
are the friends who watch her in her long
white automobile, often refusing to pick up
the intercom phone because it bores her,
and they wonder. All newspaper stories say
that she is good busineSSwoman few write
about her as human being.
Friendship Loyal
Her friendship is not easily won," says
friend of two decades And therein lies the
secret. Mrs. Johnson is not one to take on
friendship easily, in spite of all the people
who surround her "Her friendship, once
you've earned it-and you earn its loyal"
says close associate "And never underesti-
mate her. She is most intelligent. That you
will find out" the friend says.
What kind of First Lady will she be?
Probably not too different from Jacqueline
Kennedy. Her parties at The Elms, or Les
OrmeS, as Perle Mesta called it, have been
headlined by stars from Broadway. She, like
all Texans, enjoys the flamboyant, but she
never underestimate the feelings of her
guests.
Whatever she does as First Lady, it
cannot be denied that she comes to the office
with one of the most impressive backgrounds
in history. Who can match her for her
history as wife of the Senate Majority Leader
and Vice President of the United States?
But, as in every case of wives of Presi-
dents of the United States, she will be
watched. That is inevitable, as she, probably
better than anybody, knows.

There was this great battery of micro
phones against the cool darkness Of the
November evening as the seth President
of the United States walked across the
airport runway to meet them.
Suddenly, silently there was the beige
clad figure beside him.
Lady Bird Johnson was beside her hus-
band as she has always been-aS she long
ago decided to be.

home haven.
"She'S most intelligent person." said
the same friend. "She is exactly the same
as the first day met her rs years ago."

"My first thought" said the same friend,
when heard the news waS-'Thank heaven,

manic quality about Lyndon that you feel

You go to the Johnson ranches near
Johnson City, Texas, and you ride in white

MILLEDGEVILLE, Ca, Mar.
q (AP).-The former wife of

divorce trial.
Barbara Powers lawyer, Rob-
ert Greene, said today he filed
the motion on February IA and
