Their w’elfare is so es¬teemed that a monstrous edifice oflittle rules has been built up as atoken of the administration’s lovabledotage. We are happy subjects un¬der a smiling regime. Our under¬graduate council has nothing to doand is content in philosophical leis¬ure. The election of class officersis a blithe frolic, a theatrical pro¬logue to a play of inaction, an oper¬etta.

Freed frompractising the coarse art of politics,we have little burdening respon¬sibility, little troublesome autonomy.Consequently we could not be Iietteroff. What is a man with a criticalmind like mine going to do?No more indomitable proof of theUniversity’s perfection can be offer¬ed than the technique of instructionwhich has made avidity for knowl¬edge a common trait among us—even more, a mediocre, watered vir¬tue not to be compared with whatwe do with our knowledge.

And I cannot but reflect thatthe fruit of these admirable minds ofours belongs wholly to the teacherswho cultivated them.Yes, the University is sterileground for a critical attitude, thoughas everywhere else, there are open¬ings for the totally unfounded carp¬ing of the pessimists who have in¬vaded this column with their illogi¬cal verbosity.

Institution of a Reading Period plan.“OUR TRUANT PROFESSORS”Probably never before in the history of the higher educationhas criticism of our colleges and their methods been so prolificand general and bitter as it is today. Everybody—student, pro¬fessor, dean, president and even the Babbitt—seems to have somepet remedy for the plight of collegedom. Wisconsin’s experimentalcollege, Columbia’s new curriculum. Harvard’s reading period, andthis University’s orientation courses are all results of this keen prob¬ing of the educational machinery.Addison Hibbard, Dean at the University of North Carolina,thinks that in so far as all this agitation for reform is an effort toreturn to honest-to-goodness education it has elements of value, butin so far as it tends toward a further drift from education it is futile.In an article in a recent number of the Outlook magazine he saysthat what is most needed is “an honest recognition of the significanceof a teacher who is vitally interested in his subject, who has a half-creditable personality, and who is able to enter his classroom with¬out a sense of boredom and tired superiority.” Yet he declares thatvery few institutions make any definite effort to secure this sort ofinstruction or to nurture it when they find ijt.Dean Hibbard is of the same mind as Professor Kilpatrick ofColumbia who once said, "The desire for good teaching has neverbeen anything more than a pious prayer on the part of administra¬tors.” Dean Hibbard is convinced that when the good teachersdo find their way into a college faculty their best efforts are actual¬ly suppressed by the mechanics of the academic system which pre¬vails today. He condemns the exorbitant demands that the re-sarch, committee, and extra-curricular work of the modern collegeexact of the teacher; and yet if the teacher is to be “successful” itis expected that he devote much of his time and energy along theselines. No wonder. Dean Hibbard exclaims, there is so much in¬effective teaching.The emphasis placed on research by administrators, for in¬stance. is infinitely stronger than on teaching. “The result is that theambitious Instructor lets his classes go and grinds out a paper tosee the light cf clay in some scholarly journal or to be read beforean empty room at some association meeting where his colleagues ofother institutions are assembled to smoke in the corridors and findnew jobs at fatter salaries.” And the student suffers.Dean Hibbard’s remedy for all this is a new and real recogni¬tion of the importance of teaching. He offers a number of prac¬tical recommendations with a view to bringing this about.Dean Hibbard’s article is a good and timely one. The sacri¬fices being made before the Juggernaut of off-campus activities aretoo many; and teaching must still be recognized as a fundamentalof good education.

While Purdue and Michigan restsecurely at the top of the conference,if two victories and no defeats can beconsidered as a formidable position,the rest of the Big Ten seems to beengaged in a merry race to determinewhat it’s all about.Three of the top notch teams findthemselves on the wrong side of theledger. Northwestern, a highly tout¬ed quintet on the basis of their pre¬season form, ran into plenty of trou¬ble when it tackled Michigan andOhio.
