TheA lumni Committee for the 75th A nniversaryturned the occasion into a spécialevent for Chicago alumni: on the eveningof the opening a private showing ofthe exhibition was arrangea, preceded bya cocktail hour, a "Parisian dinner,"and an introductory lecture on the work ofMatisse by a member of the University' sArt Department faculty.The Matisse Rétrospective was the mostextensive display of the artist'swork yet collected, and the exhibitionwas hailed as one of the mostimportant showings held at the ArtInstitute. Oh display were 354works, induding several never publiclyshown before: 92 paintings, 47sculptures, 83 drawings, 113 prints, and1 1 gouaches découpées, the cut-and-pasted paper works.The alumni program began with cocktailsand hors d'oeuvres served in themain foyer of Orchestra Hall, acrossMichigan Avenue from the Art Institute.A lumni in the photograph at rightare entering the Art Institute short lybefore dinner.2••• ••¦ •• ïICA1 ï # "«•Jr •?Above: one of the Art Institute's three dining rooms, where alumni were served beef burgundy and broiled trout.Left: alumni in the foyer of the Art Institute.5u /.l ¦ *.6The program of March 1 1 , when theaccompanying photographs were taken,was attended by nearly 500 alumni.The response to the invitations wasoverwhelming, but attendance waslimited to the seating capacity ofFullerton Hall, and so a secondprogram was arrangea for the eveningof April 15.

Thegrant was one of the largest ever made by the Foundationfor a program in international studies.Président George W. Beadle, commenting on the grant,said "International studies pose one of the most challeng-ing frontiers to scholarship today. They are essential to oursociety for two major reasons: first, such studies provide adeep intellectual understanding of the diverse cultures withwhich Americans increasingly are coming into contact;second, they furnish the practical tools which we need inthe fields of government, business, éducation, and law."The development of international studies has been espe-cially significant in the period since World War II, asAmerica's rôle of world leadership has expanded. The University of Chicago has made a significant contribution tothe flowering of international and comparative studies dur-ing îhis period."The University is grateful to the Ford Foundation forthis impressive and generous grant, which will help ourscholars provide a firm base on which we can strengthenboth the theoretical and practical efforts concerned withsuch studies."Président Beadle said the Foundation funds would be usedmainly to finance five programs:— The création of fifteen faculty positions in internationaland comparative studies.— The expansion and development of a séries of programsat the University in the fields of international and comparative studies.— The establishment of an Institute for InternationalStudies to coordinate international académie programs atthe University.—The construction of a building on the Midway campusto house the Institute for International Studies, to provideseminars, classrooms, offices for the new faculty, and spacefor new expanded research projects.— The development of library resources to support thèseprograms.Of the total grant, $5,000,000 will be used to support the fifteen new faculty positions: Five positions will be totallyfunded by the grant; four will be partially funded; and sixwill receive ten-year support. In addition, $2,500,000 ofthe grant will be used for five-year support in advancingthe various international and comparative study programsand for library resources, and $1,000,000 toward the construction of the new building.JLnternational studies at the University include a widerange of académie research and teaching programs concerned with areas outside the United States. Comparativestudies involve the analysis of similarities and différencesin problems of the emerging nations of the world. Thèseproblems include the économie, political, social, educa-tional, légal, and intellectual aspects of modernization. Ofthe more than 7,000 undergraduate, graduate, and profes-sionaLstudents on the University's Midway campus, about1 ,000 are specializing in the international aspects of theirrespective disciplines. One graduate student in six at Chicago is from abroad. Over 100 of the University's approxi-mately 1,000 faculty are members of international or comparative study committees.The Institute for International Studies will be responsibleto the University Provost, Edward H. Levi. It will be ad-ministered by a committee whose members are ChauncyD. Harris, Professor of Geography, chairman of the committee and Director of the Institute; D. Gale Johnson, Deanof the Division of Social Sciences; Robert E. Streeter, Deanof the Division of Humanities; Phil C. Neal, Dean of theLaw School; Roald F. Campbell, Dean of the GraduateSchool of Education; George P. Shultz, Dean of the Graduate School of Business; and Léonard K. Olsen, Assistant tothe Provost. Mr. Harris, the Director, has been a memberof the University faculty since 1943. He is an authority onurban and économie geography and on the Soviet Union,to which he has made four research visits. He has published studies on the functional classification of cities, onthe market as a factor in industrial localization, and on theagricultural and industrial resources of the Soviet Union. ?9Report of the CollègeCurriculum CommitteeFollowing is the text of the recommendations made by thepermanent curriculum committee of the faculty CollègeCouncil. The recommendations were interpreted within theframework of Provost Edward H. Levïs Mémorandum onthe Collège, of August, 1964, the essentials of which weresubsequently approved by the Collège faculty and the Boardof Trustées. The issues involved were debated and discussedduring the conférences for alumni, faculty, and students heldat the University from January 28 to February 4, 1966. OnMarch 1, 1966, the Collège Council approved by an almostunanimous vote the recommendations of the curriculumcommittee.TA he Committee' s recommendations may be regarded asa conservative preamble to what is expected to be a search-ing réévaluation of the College's resources and objectives,and the long term development of new, imaginative, andeffective educational programs, which will further extend theréputation of the Collège as a major leader in undergraduateéducation.The curriculum committee recommends:One, that the curriculum changes explicit or implied in theProvost's mémorandum of 1964 be initiated, insofar as prac-ticable, as of the beginning of the Autumn Quarter of 1966.It is agreed that delay is undesirable and would hâve a négative effect on the morale of the Collegiate Faculty and students.Two, that the "year in some common" be established forail undergraduate students entering the Collège as of theAutumn Quarter, 1966.Three, that the common year be defined, on an intérimbasis, as consisting of four year-long General Educationcourses, one each from the Humanities, the Physical Sciences, the Biological Sciences, and the Social Sciences, eitherexisting or newly developed, at least two of which will betaken during the student's first year in résidence. This définition applies specifically to the académie year, 1966-67; implies no necessarily long-term adhérence to the traditionaldivision of knowledge into four parts, although the Committee assumes merit in this division, as well as convenience;and assumes the later development of as cohesive a common-year curriculum as can be contrived. Four, that the several Collegiate Divisions specify which ofthe existing General Education courses (or alternatives) forwhich they are responsable is their "best contribution5' tothe common year and the usual way of attaining the com-monality of expérience for entering students that the common year represents. The Committee understands that agiven Collegiate Division might provide the student with achoice of existing General Education courses or might sug-gest a partly or entirely new course or courses in their places,but guidelines must be provided for both students and theirAdvisors.Five, that 1966-67 be regarded as a period for curricularexpérimentation and that the Collegiate Divisions prépare,for pilot use in that year, variants of existing courses oralternatives to them. Thus, variants of the sort now developed within the Biology Collegiate Division might appearin other Collegiate Divisions; and alternative course séquences, emphasizing différent ranges of subject mattersor pedagogical techniques, as diverse as the tutorial and lecture, might also be developed, although arbitrary triads ofone-quarter courses are not what is hère contemplated. Suchvariants and alternatives should provide the foundation forthe more extensive changes anticipated for 1967-68. Aboveail, the expérimental courses and programs should seek totranscend the limitations implicit in the existing quadru-partite division of knowledge, by emphasizing inter-divi-sional perspectives. In this respect, the November, 1965,proposai for a double course in Libéral Arts might well beimplemented on a pilot basis.Six, that the équivalent of a second year be reserved byeach Collegiate Division for an additional four year-longcourse séquences, or their équivalents, outside the student'sDepartmental field of specialization, at least two of whichshould be extra-divisional or inter-divisional. This recom-mendation reflects the Committee's understanding that thecommon year does not mean a restriction of the GeneralEducation portion of the four-year programs under development to one year only. The Committee also suggests thatpart of this requirement could be met by an inter-divisionalseminar in the student's final year.Seven, that the Collegiate Divisions, in consultation withthe appropriate Departments, immediately assume responsi-bility for determining the rôles that foreign languages andmathematics will play in their respective programs. The10problem of English Composition suggests a différent solution. Also, in the event that the admirable History of Western Civilization course not be includable within the commonyear, the Committee urges that it appear as part of the extra-common year programs of the several Collegiate Divisions.The Committee has reason to believe that foreign-languagetraining or compétence will be part of the programs developed in every Collegiate Division; that mathematics will beincorporated in most of the five regular programs; and thatwriting and the use of rhetoric can be effectively incorporated into the recommended Humanities contributions tothe common year.Eight, that a Placement Test program be developed, begin-ning with 1966-67, covering the Common Year components,plus mathematics, foreign languages, (history if need be),and writing. The Committee strongly endorses the principleof placement examinations as a distinctive and valuable fea-ture of the Collège, which should be retained. The Committee is not prepared at this time to prescribe the uses to whichthe Placement Tests will be put until recommendations arereceived from the respective Collegiate Divisions, but it assumes that "placing out" of some common-year require-ments will be possible.Ni ne, that within the next two months the several CollegiateDivisions implement the above recommendations and de-velop suffïciently detailed outlines of their overall four-yearprograms, including the common-year portion, so that theclass entering the University in Autumn, 1966, can be in-formed of the choices available to it, through the 1966-67Collège Announcements.Ten, that at ail stages of their délibérations, the Counciland the Collegiate Divisions pay spécial heed to the need forcohésion in undergraduate curricula, and to the development of inter-divisional courses and programs which willmaximize the resources of the University as a whole andreflect the extraordinary reshaping of the traditional disciplines in both the sciences and the arts.The Curriculum Committee regards its recommendationsas conservative and practical, in spite of pressures they placeupon the Collegiate Divisions to accelerate the formulationof four-year programs and expérimental innovations in theGeneral Education portions of them. It regards them also asonly the first stage in the development and testing of newfour-year programs leading to the baccalaureate degree. It hopes that they will not resuit in the isolation of the NewCollegiate Division from the rest, and looks to it as a meansfor providing inter-divisional relationships for both studentand faculty, which otherwise might be lacking. The Committee also is conservative in that it views the Collège, evenin its présent guise, as a very good one, though not neces-sarily the best there is, and it regards the rétention of themany virtues of the présent Collège as a sine qua non forfurther curriculum évolution. D11Students in STEPby Charlotte RitterS,'ince October, 1965, after-school hours hâve held newexcitement for seventy elementary school children from theWoodlawn community, adjacent to the University campus.The children hâve been attending the Student Tutor Ele^mentary Project (STEP) Study Center in the WoodlawnMethodist Church, 1208 East 64th Street. Like the StudentWoodlawn Area Project (SWAP), its counterpart for highschoolers, STEP was organized and is staffed entirely bystudents at The University of Chicago. An outgrowth of aWoodlawn tutoring project established in 1962, it surviveda number of relocations before settling in its présent sitelast fall.STEP tutors corne to the Center once or twice weekly.Some work with groups of children, but the majority areassigned to help one child who is below grade level in basicschool subjects. Thus the children are given the individualattention which is ordinarily not available to them at theirregular schools. In addition they frequently work togetheron spécial projects, go on field trips, and attend parties givenfor them at the Center.A group of sixth and seventh graders publishes a weeklynewsletter, STEP Stares, to which ail the children contributestories. The newsletter is then used as' a text for those hav-ing trouble with reading. Seeing his name in print helped oneTutor Susan Chamberlain with STEP student Janice Terry. Tutors Joël Weber (left) and Bert Starr with STEP studentsKenneth Roberts, Ronald Thomas, Kirk Joe, and Steve Holliday.third grader overcome his fear of failure; he read slowly," 'Joe and his tutor took a trip to The University of Chicago.They saw a squirrel. Joe's tutor claimed that Joe ate anacorn. When they came back to the Study Center, theyplayed a word game and drew pictures. Joe said that it washis best day.' "Joe's reading problems are not solved, but progress hasbeen made. His teacher at the Wadsworth ElementarySchool has commented on his increased confidence and hisimproved ability to contribute constructively to class discussion. He now reads and writes stories about himself andabout things which are a part of his world— a world which,through the efforts of STEP, is continually expanding. Andthe world of school, with ail of its rewards and demands,has been brought closer to his expérience.Ail the stories which are written at the Center are collected12in a spécial Study Center Storybook, which the childrengreatly enjoy showing to visitors. The Storybook also is usedin study games. One day Mary and her tutor took turnsplaying the rôle of teacher and student. Mary began, "Ailright, Jean, now I am the teacher and you better be good orI'il take you down to the principal! Tell me, how do youspell this word 'bake,' and then tell me a sentence and Iwill write it down for you." Mary and Jean keep ail theirnew words in a "Treasure Chest," which they augment ateach session. Before coming to STEP, Mary was describedby her regular teacher as "dull, disinterested, and hopeless."Tutor Nancy Hatch with students Ronald Sudds and Doretha Lyles. Every afternoon before the Center closes, ail of the childrenand tutors corne together for a "circle meeting." At one ofthèse meetings, Mary made an announcement about whatchildren should do if they want a pen-pal. Someone handedout permission slips for a coming field trip. Joe read a storythat he and his tutor wrote during their session. Anotherchild then led the group in a closing song.After the children leave, the tutors gather for a discussion.One child has been creating noisy distractions: The groupfeels that he needs more attention; they décide to seek waysto get the other children to give him more récognition. Onetutor relates an instance of how he achieved STEP's collective goal of making learning relevant to the expérience ofthe children: "My kid didn't know what an inch or a footmeant. So I had her measure herself and her baby brotherand her kitchen table. She went around measuring thingsfor a week. She loved it."The tutors continue to share problems, make suggestions,plan group functions. But finding effective approaches tothe children's problems is not an easy task. Seeking waysto make school more meaningful, tutors often confer withteachers, parents, and professional people. Together theydesign activities which will not only increase the children'sunderstanding of their work, but will also improve theirattitudes toward the school expérience as a whole. Opportunités are provided to succeed in new ways: a child tellsa story while his tutor records it, and then has the satisfaction of reading what he has written to an enthusiastic audience. Or he makes a bulletin board for the others to add to.Or someone invents a game which the children can play athome with their brothers and sisters.STEP tutors are sensitive to the attitudes of the childrenand work hard planning relevant approaches. Small incidents inspire them to continue what sometimes seems anunavailing effort. The children's first trip to the BrookfieldZoo, for example, produced many spontaneous expressionsof delight. And one third-grader, one day missing her tutor,composed the first letter she had ever written on her own:"Dear my Ann, You are not hère so I am going home. I wantyou to be my tutor always. Love, Carol." ?Charlotte Ritter is a third-year student in the Collège, majoring insocial sciences. She is from Garden City, N. Y. Since tr»3 spring of1 964, she has been director of the Student Tutor Elementary Project,described in this article.13by Sidney E. MeadTheLost Dimensionand theAge of Longing JLt is good now and then to try to take our bearings as wesail through or drift with the oceanic currents of the uni-verse. For, as Abraham Lincoln said, "If we could firstknow where we are and whither we are tending, we couldbetter judge what to do and how to do it."But to know where we are and whither tending religiouslyis not easy. Even a modicum of confidence that we are fol-lowing a charted course to some destination other thandusty death, rests upon an unstable foundation of knowledge, faith, and désire. Therefore, in speaking of where Ithink many of us are today, ail I can hope to do is sketchan impressionistic mood-picture concocted of some soundhistory, of hunches, and sheer feeling.In sketching such a picture I am quite aware that we todayas unique individuals and heirs of ail the diversity providedby the attics of the âges, live mentally and spiritually indifférent worlds. My impression of our présent religiousstate may not be yours. So be it. I hâve no désire to makeconverts— and trust you hâve none either.But where are we? Max Weber once characterized themovement of history during the past several centuries as"the progressive disenchantment of the world." More re-cently a historian characterized the history of the past twocenturies as the story "of ultimate solutions gone sour."Both leave the impression that there has been a linear movement along a chronological line from "faith" to "doubt."The impression is wrong. History is not that simple, exceptto the simple-minded.I hâve a friend— a professor and historian who has published many volumes on the history of Christianity from hispoint of view. To me he appears to live in a stable belief-world, in which the Scriptures provide a source of certainknowledge about man's past, présent, and future, and adefinite set of standards for judging the meaning of eventsand the values to be sought. He lives in a world différentfrom the one I inhabit. But, he lives, and he is productive,Sidney E. Mead is a professor in the School of Religion of the StateUniversity of Iowa. He is ordained in the Unitarian Church andholds the MA and the PhD degrees from the Divinity School of TheUniversity of Chicago, where he taught for twenty years. Amonghis publications are The Church in the Modem West (with A. H.Nichols) and The Lively Experiment. This article, taken from asermon given in Rockefeller Chapel last year, is adapted from theAutumn, 1965, issue of Criterion, published by the Divinity School.Illustrations for The University of Chicago Magazine by CarolNelson.14and he seems to be as contented as the lot of man permits.He "believes" in the traditional sensé.On the other end of the spectrum I know, and you know(perhaps from personal expérience), people who live inwhat has been called "the existential vacuum." Such people,being human, are not guided by instincts. And their driftwith the intellectual gulf stream of western civilization hascarried them far away from traditional religious beliefs. Ofsuch a person an eminent psychiatrist has said, "No instincttells him what he has to do, and no tradition tells him whathe ought to do; soon he will not know what he wants to do.More and more he will be governed by what others want[and tell] him to do." This describes the "lonely crowd" ofDavid Riesman's "other-directed people." Thèse extrêmesof belief and unbelief are contemporary. The two pôles donot represent a chronological movement as is often sup-posed.But by and large we intellectuals are toward the "belief-vacuum" end of the continuum. Perhaps most vocal arethose for whom an exhibitionist lack of belief is the hall-mark of sophistication. So they pluck the strings of theirrébellion against the "faith of our fathers" and chant theircleverness in ferreting out the absurdities of religion. It isbetter that they should be thus than apathetic.But for others the kill has been made-the enemy slain.For them the old religious orthodoxy is dead, and to themit seems silly to continue to beat a corpse. As the lust of thehunt and the battle has cooled, reflectively they examine thedead face of religious belief and it "seems no longer thatof an enemy." Perhaps their mood is close to that of Archy-Don Marquis' famous cockroach— as he saw the moth flyinto the flame and become "a small unsightly cinder":"iwish/there was something i wanted/as badly as he wantedto fry himself ."It is the mood of those who would like to believe, buthâve discovered that they cannot believe— at least on theterms commonly offered them. They realize now that "be-lieving" is not something one can by taking thought turnon or off, It is not a matter of simple choice but somethingthat flows to one through subtle channels that Christiansknew as "grâce.""So I won't believe" some say. But it is not as simple asthat either. For apparently if one is to live at ail it is notoptional whether he will believe in something or not. "Where there is no vision the people perish," wrote the ancientauthor of Proverbs. And two psychiatrists who watchedtheir fellow prisoners live and die in the concentration campshâve said about the same thing respecting individuals. Wroteone, "the vast majority of the thousands of prisoners whodied at Buchenwald each year died soon. They simply diedof exhaustion, both physical and psychological, due to a lossof désire to live." To this the other adds, "The prisoner whohad lost faith in the future— his future— was doomed. Withhis loss of belief in the future, he also lost his spiritual hold;he let himself décline and became subject to mental andphysieal decay."But-believe what? The difficulty many people hâve withmuch of orthodoxy is the seeming insistence of its représentatives that "you must believe this, and you must believeit this way.,y It is for this reason that people in churches areoften afraid to express their doubts, and sometimes feelguilty for having them. It was encouraging to note in récentnews that there was a conférence of Protestant, RomanCatholic, and Jewish laymen who began their discussion of"The Relevance of Faith in Modem Man" with a frankrécognition that doubt of the beliefs and practices of hischurch often betokens the dawn of the member's real faithin God.I am speaking to those people for whom traditional orthodoxy, as they hâve known it, is dead, and who know thatfor them it is dead. At most, with Matthew Arnold on DoverBeach, they hear "Its melancholy, long, withdrawing roar."They poignantly stare at the dead face of the old religiousbelief and sensé within themselves a lost dimension— a vacuum to be filled, a longing.A longing for what? Perhaps few would say it as I say it—they are longing for a "church" almost, not quite, in thetraditional sensé.15T T e Americans are the heirs of ail the âges, of everyland, of every people. But most of the basic motifs of ourculture were launched on that "sea of faith" that "was once,too, at the full . . ." It has been said that a culture is thetangible f orm of religious belief — and the religion of ourculture is— or was— the Christian religion.For centuries— say from the fourth to the eighteenth— thegreat majority of our Western ancestors lived and movedThe story of création, rédemption, and judgment enabledthe average man to understand universal expérience— "andit consoled him . . . to realize that his own life, howeverbarren and limited . . . was but a concrète exemplificationof the expérience which God had decreed for ail the générations of men." He was, like Emerson, held down to his placeby the weight of the universe. He knew that at the end therewould be a day of reckoning when infallible judgment, cut-ting through the moral and spiritual ambiguities known toman, would separate the evil from the good and allot toeach its just reward. Then the great judge would stoop fromabove and wipe the tears from the tired eyes of the humblestperson when he put earth's burdens down. He knew whathuman life was, for He was once born of a woman— "O littletown of Bethlehem" — lived as a man among men — "wascrucified, dead, and buried." But "the third day he rose fromthe dead"— and that is why the great hallelujah chorus réverbérâtes down through the âges.Sadly it must be said that somewhere along the line, formany people, the curtain went down on that drama— andneither curtain nor God hâve risen again. Friedrich Nietz-sche's madman still rushes about in our marketplaces crying,"I seek God! . . . Where is God gone? I mean to tell you!We hâve killed him,— you and I! . . . God is dead!" "God is dead!"— the line has become so common that eventimid clergymen now use it in an attempt to be "honest toGod." Meanwhile an increasing number of people who believe well enough that that God is dead, say it with the sadobservation expressed by one of Arthur Koestler's charac-ters— "Each time a god dies there is trouble in history . . ."But why did our God die? Did we kill him? If we did Ithink it was unintentional déicide committed while wethought we were but obeying His command to go forth andgain dominion over ail other created things.So we may point to that vast, vague area in our historythat we call "the rise of science." Concurrently men of faithbegan to realize that as they marched to fulfill this promisetheir universe was changing into an immense machine thatran with inexorable précision and without concern for man.The subtle alchemy of human expérience was changing Godthe father of the Lord Jésus Christ with whom we werefellow heirs into an engineer-mechanic who had designed andbuilt the machine, but now was about as remote as thosesemimythical monsters who in the flat Olympus of Détroitdesign our automobiles.A chill ,settled over the Christian world as God seemed tobe fading away like Alice's Cheshire cat, leaving among aresidue of the intellectually invincible a disembodied andsentimental grin. "It was," as Cari Becker put it, "as if arumor— had at last become too insistent to be longer dis-regarded: the rumor that God, having departed secretly inthe night, was about to cross the frontiers of the known worldand leave mankind in the lurch."For many this meant what Bertrand Russell suggested:"that man is the product of causes which had no prévisionof the end they were achieving; that his origin, his growth,his hopes and fears, his loves and his beliefs, are but theoutcome of accidentai collocations of atoms; . . . that thewhole temple of man's achievement must inevitably beburied beneath the débris of a universe in ruins ..."For the first time in Christendom people were confrontedwith the question: "Were they living in a world ruled by abeneficent mind, or in a world ruled by an indiffèrent force?"But what really shocked them was that when they finallybecame self-consciously aware of the question, they hadalready accepted the latter answer. One of their spokesmentoward the end of the nineteenth century exclaimed that "hecould not agrée . . . that the 'new faith' constituted a desir-16able substitute for 'the waning splendour of the old'." Thereis, he continued, an "appalling contrast between the hal-lowed glory of that creed which once was mine, and thelonely mystery of existence as now I find it . . ." Such menfelt "the lost dimension."What was the "new faith" of which this scientist spoke? Itwas faith in man. But this is no simple matter.It has been persuasively argued that as the eighteenth cen-tury philosophers dismantled the celestial heaven they re-built it on earth of earthly materials. Rejecting salvationmediated through the one who was "truly man and trulyGod" they postulated salvation through the efforts of successive générations of men. Living on in posterity took theplace of an immortality in heaven as a sustaining belief.Robespierre, one of the leaders of the French révolution,addressed a prayer to the new-model god: "O posterity,sweet and tender hope of humanity, thou are not a strangerto us; it is for thee that we brave ail the blows of tyranny; itis thy happiness which is the price of our painful struggles;often discouraged by the obstacles that surround us, we feelthe need of thy consolations; it is to thee that we confidethe task of completing our labors, and the destiny of ail un-born générations! . . . Make haste, O posterity, to bring topass the hour of equality, of justice, of happiness." There-after down through the nineteenth century— indeed, downto the présent for many people— the hope for one's futureand hence the significance of one's life was found in identification with a movement that was likely to endure in history. So Abraham Lincoln at Gettysburg said, "the worldwill little note nor long remember what we say hère, butit can never forget what they did hère."Men holding this belief could be as naively rapturousabout the bright future of man on earth as ever the writerof the book of Révélation was about the New Jérusalemwhere death would hâve no dominion and where there would be no night. Listen to Winwood Reade, writing in1872: "The beautiful legend will corne true; . . . Earth,which is now a purgatory, will be made a paradise, . . . bythe efforts of man himself. . . . Hunger and starvation willthen be unknown . . . Governments will be conducted withthe quiétude and regularity of club committees. The interestwhich is now felt in politics will be transferred to science.. . . Poetry and the fine arts will take that place in the heartwhich religion now holds. . . . Not only will Man subdue theforces of evil that are without; he will also subdue those thatare within. ... A time will corne when Science will transform[men's bodies] . . . Disease will be extirpated; the causes ofdecay will be removed; immortality will be invented. . . .[and] Man then will be perfect; . . . he will therefore be whatthe vulgar worship as a god."That, also, was a beautiful faith— a faith by which thousandsof enlightened people lived and did great deeds, creating anera when even "wise men hoped" and believed in progress.But it must sadly be said that god— incarnate in mankindand consequently immortal only as posterity is immortal—that god also died in 1 945 when a pigmy bomb left a mush-room-shaped cloud over a Japanese city. What men likeWinwood Reade hailed as the god who would transformmen's lives and institutions and in vent immortality for ail,had shown another face. The potential producer of ail goodwas now seen as the potential producer of universal death—by flame and radiation, or slow starvation because of over-population, or sheer pollution of the earth's surface.Slowly it seems to be dawning upon those people whoplaced their faith and found meaning for their lives in progress through posterity that there may be no "everafter" formankind to live happily in. There may be no future. Posterity, worshiped as a god, may be even more vulnérable thanthe old Christian God because we can kill him as easily aswe can "overkill" mankind.TJL hère are, then, two aspects of the "lost dimension"—the loss of the ability to believe in the traditional Christiansensé, and the loss of ability to assure ourselves that a posterity is a sure thing. For many people god the latter is justas dead as god the former.It is because the faith in man's future which the eighteenth17century taught us to substitute for faith in the Christian Godhas also collapsed that this becomes The Age of Longing—the title of Arthur Koestler's novel of 1951.Longing for what? Longing for faith, for belief, for a mean-ing to one's life, and the work one does, for the ability tosee something more than a "taie told by an idiot, signifyingnothing" in the daily chores one has to do in order to live.Of course this does not strike everyone at the same timeor in the same way. Remember my friend who lives, andlives well, in the old Christian world. And I, as you, knowtechnical intellectuals who still live, apparently quite hap-pily, in the world of Winwood Reade. Others seem to begifted with the capacity to earn enough in our affluent societyto keep up with ail the Joneses, ail without any apparentconcern about the family gods. Of course sometimes weeventually learn that as they gravitated toward the couch,or into an expensive slumber room, they had been livinglives of "quiet desperation" — as Henry David Thoreauthought was the f ate of most of his friends in staid old Con-cord.The people of Koestler's novel are thèse "dispossessed offaith; the physically or spiritually horneless." The burden oftheir anguish is, "LET ME BELIEVE IN SOMETHING."What I hâve given is the description of a mood— not univer-sal of course, but widely prévalent among sensitive people.Thèse people cannot give themselves either to faith in thetraditional sensé, or to the rich spontaneous faith in manand progress. Therefore it is not to be supposed, as somepreachers seem to suppose today, that ridiculing and under-mining the belief in man will restore the old kind of faith inGod. But, on the other hand, neither can it be supposed-as other preachers appear to do— that undermining faith inthe Christian God where it still exists, and ridiculing traditional Christian beliefs and practices will restore the lost faith in man's future. A plague on both thèse houses!The people I hâve in mind seek religious faith— whetherthey would call it that or not does not matter. Their mood,to repeat, is akin to that of Emerson's soldier after the battlewho realizes that the life he had to take cannot ever be re-called— that an enemy once dead is no longer an enemy-that the space he, or it, occupied may now be a fearful vac-uum. It is to thèse people that a church ought to speak-must speak if it is to be more than a congenial company ofirrelevant people. What is to be said?At this point, having tied the religious situation into a des-perately complex and hard knot, I wish that like some hardytrue-believers I could pronounce it "Gordian" and eut itapart with one deft stroke of the "Sword of the Spirit," theWord of God. But already, it seems to me, too many preachers who do not even understand the question thèse peopleof the âge of longing are asking, are blithely telling them that"Jésus is the answer."I cannot be that definite. I can only make a suggestionthrough the use of figures. There is the figure of "the godbehind the gods." The tribes of men forget that human lifeis a pilgrimage and make comfortable camps beside lakesand pools of truth from which they drink the water of lifethat sustains them in their particularity. But, Thoreau oncesaid, when a tribe's lake or pool of truth dries up— as aillakes and pools must do— then they must "gird up their loinsonce more, and continue their pilgrimage toward its foun-tainhead." Some, of course, will resist moving on and preferto become fossilized in the drying mud of the old pool. Butthose who do move toward the living stream might welltake as their slogan, "God is dead— God alone is immortal!"Then there is the figure of the church. And if the churchbe thèse people on their pilgrimage toward the fountainheadof life, then the essence of that church is to be found in thecongenial relationship between thèse good companions. ForGod, 'tis said, is love. And to find other people who arecongenial company on the pilgrimage, is to know the présence of that elemental love that is the créative ground of ailhuman being.So I can summarize what I hâve tried to say in words takenfrom J. Robert Oppenheimer: ". . . this, as I see it, is thecondition of man; and in this condition we can help, becausewe can love one another."I hope you can see what he meant, and I mean. ^18(luadraipleHewsDouglas Speaks— United States SenatorPaul H. Douglas (D-Ill.) spoke at theUniversity February 14, 1966. His ad-dress, part of the Student Government'sWilliam B. Ogden Mémorial LectureSéries, was entitled "Making Our CitiesFit for People." Sen. Douglas unveiledone of his current législative proposaisfor attacking urban problems. The acthe suggested would provide fédéralmoney to cities for carrying out broadlybased urban renewal programs. Citieswould offer federally acceptable plansencompassing éducation, health, hous-ing, and community action needs forblighted areas. Once a city's request isapproved, the government would furnishup to 90 per cent of the funds necessaryfor implementing the project. In addition, the government would provide tech-nical assistance for aspects of theprogram, requiring it and a fédéral co-ordinator to oversee, but not direct, theproject's development. In turn, cities re-ceiving aid must demonstrate their will-ingness to help concretely their project'ssaccess, the Senator emphasized. Rigidenforcement of housing codes must beaugmented, he said, by intensive effortsto relocate families in décent housing.Cities will not be allowed to lessen localefforts merely because fédéral funds areattacking similar problems.The Senator praised previous fédéralurban renewal programs and recountedhis rôle in their passage. He especiallylauded the rent subsidy program includ-ed in the 1965 fédéral housing act. Rentsubsidies, he said, allow for smaller congrégations of people on public assistancethan does public housing. They enablean assisted family to assume a greaterpart of the burden of payment.Law School Hearings — The SuprêmeCourt cof Illinois convened at the LawSchool of the University on January 27,1966, to hold hearings on two cases in-volving tape recordings said to containconversations among Springfield lobby-ists. The cases concern grand jury andlégislative investigations into the ques tion of "whether any funds hâve beenpaid to various persons in connectionwith influencing législative action." Thetape recordings were allegedly receivedfrom anonymous sources by a Chicagonewspaperman and then turned over tothe State's Attorney, who called a grandjury to investigate. In addition, the Illinois House of Représentatives createda six-man committee to investigate thecharges. Circuit Judge Creel Douglass ofSpringfield then issued injunctions pro-hibiting use of the tapes in both investigations. The legislators and the State'sAttorney appealed to the Suprême Courtto overrule Judge Douglass. The casesbefore the Court, thus question: (1)whether a trial judge has a right to sup-press the use of thèse tapes in grand juryinvestigations; and (2) whether a trialjudge can enjoin the use of the tapes bythe state législature in its investigation.Both cases were argued in the WeymouthKirkland Court Room, of the LawSchool. Since 1960, the Illinois SuprêmeCourt has held at least one hearing ayear in the model court room of the University's Law School Center.The Language of Life— During the twen-tieth century, man has discovered thatthe source of his biological inheritance isthe nucleic acid in his chromosomes. Sub-units of nucleic acid— ordered by threesinto a molecular code that spécifies howeach of us shall develop, grow, and func-tion — are now known to be both thechemical basis of life and the raw mate-rial of évolution. The Language of Life, anew book (Doubleday) by UniversityPrésident and Mrs. George Beadle, tellsthe layman what this knowledge meansand how it was acquired. Throughout thebook specialized scientific terminology iskept to a minimum. It is intended to helpthe non-scientist understand the dramaticdiscoveries of the récent past and appre-ciate their social implications.Poetry Reading — On February 27, twoeminent American poets read from theirworks in the Weymouth Kirkland Court-room of the Law School of The University of Chicago. James Wright, of theUniversity of Minnesota's Department ofEnglish, and Denise Levertov, of NewYork City, were presented. The readingwas jointly sponsored by the 75th Anniversary Committee, the William VaughnMoody Fund, and the literary magazineChicago Review. Mr. Wright's publishedworks include three volumes of verse—The Green Wall (Yale University Press,1957), Saint Judas (Wesleyan University Press, 1959), and The Branch WillNot Break (Wesleyan University Press, 1963). Miss Levertov was born in Lon-don and moved to New York in 1946.In 1961, she was poetry editor of theNation. Her published works includeThe Double Image (Cresset Press, Lon-don, 1946), Hère and Now (City Lights,1957), Overland to the Islands (JargonBooks, 1958), With Eyes at the Bach ofOur Heads (New Directions, 1960), andThe Jacob' s Ladder (New Directions,1961).Cancer Research Symposium — Twenty-three of the nation's leading cancer re-searchers met at The University of Chicago on February 26 and 27, to reporttheir latest findings in a new area of cancer research — the conversion of normalcells into cancer cells in the test tube.The two-day "Symposium on MalignantTransformation" was sponsored by theUniversity's Cancer Training Program,which is directed by Dr. Robert W. Wis-sler, Professor and Chairman of the Department of Pathology and Cancer Co-ordinator at the University. Dr. Wisslersaid: "The subject of this symposium isone of the most exciting and fast-movingareas of cancer research. The transformation of normal cells into malignantones in the test tube under controlledconditions makes it possible to study thisprocess in more détail than can be ac-complished by growing cancers in expérimental animais. New results are be-ing reported in this area almost daily,and with each report we are learningmore about the fundamental processesby which cells become malignant. Weare fortunate to hâve had at Chicago anumber of the leading workers in thisfield, who gave us an up-to-the-minutepicture of what is happening in thisrapidly changing and very significantarea of cancer research." Scientists fromThe University of Chicago and leadinginstitutions in other parts of the UnitedStates, and from the Institute of Virologyin Glasgow, Scotland, appeared on theprogram.Rocket Program Forecasted — There isreason to believe that expenditures forexperiments with high-altitude rocketswill be doubled or tripled in the next fewyears, according to Professor Colin O.Hines, of the University's Departmentof Geophysical Sciences. At the présenttime, less than one per cent of the U. S.budget for space exploration is beingspent on rocket experiments. This hascreated a serious imbalance in our totalspace effort, Hines asserts. Artificialsatellites, which can stay up indefinitely,provide "more bits per buck," but areuseless for certain vital studies which19must be conducted 20 to 1 30 miles abovethe earth's surface. Hines points out thatthis area of the atmosphère is too highfor balloons and too low for satellites.Yet it is in this région that much cosmicradiation is absorbed, most meteors burnup, most airglow and aurorae occur, andhigh frequency radio waves are moststrongly absorbed.The area has not been sufflcientlystudied, Hines says, because rockets hâvehad to take a back seat to satellites, whichtake instruments for a longer ride, provide more geographical coverage, andhâve further advantages for certainstudies. They also enlist the support ofCongress, the press, the public, and students in the development of a strongspace program. However, says Hines,rockets also hâve their advantages. Theycan, for example, be used to detectchanges in conditions with height andcan be controlled more precisely thansatellites for certain assignments. "Evena single minute's data from a rocket maywell exceed in value the data accumu-lated from months of a satellite flight,"he argues. Hines believes that there is agrowing consensus that the sounding-rocket program "should be expanded bya factor of two or three in the immédiatefuture. Each program has its distinctiverôle to play, and failure to recognize theadvantages or limitations of each willresuit in nothing but a waste of muchmoney and effort. The stakes in the gameare high," Hines concludes, "and suchwastage cannot be tolerated for long."New Antimalarial Drug — The University of Chicago/ Army Médical ResearchProject has developed a synthetic drugwhich is now being tested in Vietnamagainst the résistant forms of malariaafflicting American servicemen there.According to Colonel William D. Tig-ertt, Director of the Walter Reed ArmyInstitute of Research, the drug, calledDDS (for diaminodiphenylsulfone), isconsidered one of the most promisingavailable. The standard préventive meas-ure for malaria among U. S. troops inVietnam up to now has been a pill con-taining two synthetic drugs— chloroquineand primaquine. Chloroquine is mostuseful for the prévention and treatmentof acute attacks of falciparum malaria;primaquine is most useful against an-other type called vivax malaria. Neitheris completely effective alone.The new résistant strains are forms offalciparum malaria which do not respondto chloroquine treatment. They first ap-peared in South America in 1961, andthen in Southeast Asia, where they wererecognized as early as 1962 as being po tential problems to Americans. Thèsestrains can be treated with quinine, thenatural antimalarial drug found in thebark of the Cinchona tree. But quininehas toxic side-effects which limit its useful ness, and it does not always completely cure malarial infections.Until recently The University of Chicago group was almost the only onestudying the résistant strains from Vietnam in human beings. The researchersdemonstrated in 1962 that the strainswould resist synthetic antimalarial drugssuch as chloroquine, and since that timethey hâve been evaluating other possibleagents for use against the infection. Thusseveral years of preliminary studies pre-ceded the présent emergency situation.The Research Project has been conducted at the Stateville Branch of theIllinois State Penitentiary at Joliet. It isheaded by Dr. Paul E. Carson and Dr.Dr. James V. McNamara, a University Research associate, holds a mosquito-carryingplastic tube to the arm of Kieth Ruck, aninmate volunteer in the research project.Robin D. Powell, both Assistant Profes-sors in the University's Department ofMedicine. In the study, 22 of 26 inmatevolunteers receiving daily dosages of 25to 50 milligrams of DDS were protectedfrom infection by the strains of résistantmalaria from Vietnam. DDS had been inuse for some time as an anti-leprosydrug, but it had earlier been passed overas an antimalarial agent in favor of moreactive compounds. The testing programat Stateville revealed the activity of thedrug against the résistant strains of malaria. Results of the project were firstreported by Dr. Richard L. DeGowin,Assistant Professor of Medicine and for-merly a member of the Army MédicalResearch Project, at a meeting of theAmerican Society of Tropical Medicineand Hygiène in November, 1965. New Divinity Degree— A new profession-al doctoral program designed to préparestudents for newly emerging forms ofProtestant ministry has been establishedby the University's Divinity School. Thefour-and-a-half year program, whichleads to the new degree of Doctor ofMinistry (DMn), will replace the oldBachelor of Divinity (BD). Dr. RobertW. Spike, formerly the executive director of the National Council of Churches'Commission on Religion and Race, hasbeen appointed director.The Divinity School faculty has studiedthe issues in ministerial éducation since1949. It has made three major programrevisions in an attempt to continue useof the BD degree. But it has lately become clear that no reworking of theprogram, however extensive, wouldcreate the degree needed in the éducation of the ministry today. The newprogram, according to Jerald C. Brauer,Dean of the Divinity School, representsan attempt to "bring theological éducation into a vital relationship with thechanging rôles of Christian faith, of theChristian Church, and of the ministryitself." The DMn is a degree with itsown character in terms of professionaléducation for the ministry. It is neitheran expanded BD nor a shortened PhD.And it will replace only the BD degree;the Divinity School will continue tooffer the AM and PhD degrees for students who do not plan a career in theministry.The new program is divided into twoparts. The first, leading to the Master ofTheology degree (MTh), is concernedwith the rôle of theology in our culture.It is not intended to be définitive or exhaustive, but to allow the student tocorne to grips with the questions that ledhim to enter a theological institution.The qualified student who décides tostudy for the ordained ministry thenmoves into the second, or DMn, phase ofthe program. Hère he does work in ad-vanced courses, particularly in the theological and biblical fields, in an effort tounderstand more fully the resources ofthe Christian faith and to deepen andexpand his developing theological perspective. Seminars and small classes, in-cluding some in other disciplines, replacemany of the survey courses in the BDprogram, and there are no dissertationor foreign language requirements. Thefaculty feel that adding such requirements simply to copy other doctoral programs would be inappropriate. A firmgrounding in the social sciences or in lit-erature, they contend, is more relevantthan foreign languages to the contem-porary profession of the ministry.20Dr. Spike, the new director, has beena pioneer in reformulating the structureand form of the local church in a com-pletely changed urban setting. He is mostwidely known for his involvement in thecivil rights movement. Dean Brauer saysthat "his leadership in this importantarea of contemporary social and religious concern has been marked by courage, tact, patience, and vision. He hasundoubtedly been the chief figure in theplanning and coordination of Protestantparticipation in civil rights activity of thelast two years. In our judgment, he is thebest man in the country to head up ournew doctoral program for the ministry."Alumni Educators— Since January 1,1965, seven Chicago alumni hâve beenappointed to a collège presidency or itséquivalent. They are: Jérôme M. Sachs,'36, SM'37, PhD'40, président of IllinoisTeachers Collège (Chicago North);LeRoy Banks Allen, PhD'52, présidentof Cheyney (Pa.) State Collège; HowardW. Johnson, AM'47, président of Massachusetts Institute of Technology; Robert S. Kreider, AM'41, PhD'53, président of Blufïton (O.) Collège; Earl J.McGrath, PhD'36, président of the newEisenhower Collège, Seneca Falls, N.Y.;Donald C. Moyer, PhD'54, chancellor ofNevada-Southern University, Las Vegas;and the Very Rev. John P. Raynor, PhD'59, président of Marquette University,Milwaukee, Wis.New Study Center— A new Center inBalkan and Slavic Languages and AreaStudies has been established at theUniversity under the auspices of theUnited States Office of Education. EricP. Hamp, Professor of Indo-EuropeanLinguistics, has been appointed director.The new Center will coordinate theUniversity's program in Balkan andWest Slavic studies and will encompassliterary and historical studies, languageand linguistics, music and art, anthro-pology, économies, and other socialsciences. By bringing together severaldisciplines, the Center will permit theUniversity to expand its staff and research facilities in the Balkan and Slavicareas. Assignments of existing facultyhâve been readjusted, and several pro-fessors are offering new courses thisyear. In addition, two new professorialappointments hâve been made in theDivision of Humanities. A specialist inModem" Greek, Kostas Kazazis, wasnamed Assistant Professor of Linguistics, and Svetozar Petrovic, of the University of Zagreb, Yugoslavia, is VisitingProfessor of South Slavic Literatures.A visiting professorship in this field may become an annual appointment. It isalso possible that, beginning in 1966-67,the Center's faculty will include Visiting Professors of Linguistics fromRumania, Poland, Albania, Bulgaria,and Turkey.SportshortsBasketball— The University of Chicagobasketball team won its last four gamesto complète its best season in five yearsand one of the most successful in its history. They defeated Illinois Institute ofTechnology 50-49 on February 15; Mac-Murray Collège 76-72 on February 19;Lake Forest Collège 70-53 on February26; and Western Reserve University 84-64 on March 5. Coach Joseph M. Stampffelt that the game with WRU was theteam's best of the season: "We hadtrouble ail year converting our good défense into points," he said, "but againstWestern Reserve we were able to do thisvery well. It was our highest game scoreof the year. And even though we allowedour opponents to score 64 points, it wasdefinitely our best défensive game thisyear." Chicago won 12 and lost four forthe season. They scored 988 points totheir opponents' 894 and finished at thetop of the NCAA Collège Division indéfense, allowing only 55.6 points pergame. Individual scoring leaders for theMaroons were Marty Campbell with 200and Dennis Waldon with 196 points forthe year. Coach Stampf has high hopesfor success next year. Ail of the Maroonregulars will return, and ail but one ofthe reserves. "Our team played progres-sively better bail as the season advanced,"said Stampf. "We lost two of our firstthree games, then went on to win 1 1 outof the next 13." This season was Stampf 'sninth as head coach at the University.During that time his teams hâve won 112games and lost 46.Track — On February 10, 24 varsitytrackmen participated as a "B" teamagainst Wright and Wilson Junior Collèges at the Field House. Final score:Chicago-69, Wright-45, Wilson-11. OnFebruary 12, 17 varsity athlètes joineda field of 138 for the University of Chicago Track Club Open. The outstanding performance by a Maroon runner wasPeter Hildebrand's second-place time of14:30 in the 3 -mile run.The varsity team dropped both ends ofa dual meet February 19 at the FieldHouse. Against a strong Wayne Stateteam, however, the Maroons were ableto take four firsts. Jan Nilsson, a second-year student from Chicago, won themile in 4:20.3, then came back to leada sweep for Chicago in the 880 in 1 : 57.9,with teammates James Cottingham andSean Peppard taking 2nd and 3rd. Themile relay team of Kojola, Terpstra, Sar-racino, and Cottingham also won, butChicago lost the meet 58-45. In the second half, the Maroons took six firsts inthe running events, but lost to IllinoisState University 60-53. Peter Hildebrandset a new school record in the two-milerun with a time of 9:29.4.On March 4, the varsity track team wonthe 16th Annual University of Chicagoand Midwest Conférence Indoor Meet.The Maroons set three meet records incompiling a winning total of 62 points.Carleton Collège was second with 55.The records were set in the distance med-ley relay (10:34.8), the two-mile relay(7:58.3),andthelongjump(22'51/i").Fencing— Chicago fencers competed ina double dual meet at the University ofWisconsin, February 19. The Maroonsdefeated Indiana University 23-4, butlost to Wisconsin 17-10. In Columbus,Ohio, February 26, Chicago lost to theUniversity of Iowa 23-4 and to OhioState University 15-12, but on March5, the team won its final meet of theseason over Milwaukee Institute of Technology 17-10. For the season the Maroons won 5 and lost 10. Top individualperformers were captain Donald L. An-derson (30 bouts), Michael J. McLean(21), Stephen L Knodle (21), andSteven H. Eisenger (20).Swimming— The Maroon swimming teamfinished its season March 5 by hostingthe 19th Annual Chicago InvitationalIntercollegiate Swimming and DivingChampionships. In addition to Chicagothe competitors included Elgin Commu-nity Collège, George Williams Collège,Wilson and Wright Junior Collèges, andthe University of Illinois (Chicago Cir-cle) . The meet was won by Chicago Cir-cle with 109 team points, including fournew meet records. George Williams wassecond with 50 team points and Chicagowas third with 42 points. Charles E.Calef, a second-year student from Chicago, was the only Maroon winner witha clocking of 1:07.7 in the 100-yardbreast-stroke.21ProfitesRay KoppelmanIn the language of the educator the"late bloomer" is the student whose intellectual awakening is delayed until hislater académie expérience. Ray Koppelman, Master of the new Collegiate Division of the Biological Sciences, was sucha student. He remembers his expériencein the Chicago public schools as pleas-ant, but not particularly invigorating. Hehad no burning passion to go to collège,but, he says, "It was something I alwaysknew I'd do. Maybe this was because, in1939, there were so few alternatives."He entered The University of Chicagoin 1 940, and began the first stage of his"blooming" process: "I'm the first to admit I was no great shakes as an undergraduate. My grades were certainlysomewhat less than distinguished. Butsomething was obviously happening tome, something was rubbing ofï, I wasabsorbing something that took time tocrystallize."After taking his SB in 1944, Koppelman entered the army. He served as alaboratory technician in the médicalservice and became laboratory directorof the 142nd General Hospital in Calcutta. He says, "The army served twopurposes for me. First, it made me realize that I wasn't made for the main-stream of bucking for promotions, com-peting at the cost of the next guy, andfiguring the angles. Second, it providedme with G.I. benefits. I was happy in alaboratory. I had to learn a lot more,but I knew that biochemistry had mysustained interest."To pursue that interest Koppelman en-rolled in the PhD program at Chicago."I hâve been forever grateful," he says,"for the University's attitude toward admission into its Graduate Schools. Therewas the feeling then, as there is now inour department, that if you had a degreefrom hère, you were entitled to a crackat graduate study." He interrupted hisstudies twice to teach biochemistry — first, in 1948-49, at the West VirginiaUniversity Médical School and then, inthe next year, at Illinois Institute ofTechnology in Chicago.Earl A. Evans, Jr., Chairman of theDepartment of Biochemistry, says:"Surely there are students who leave usafter a year, either by choice or invitation. But then there are the Koppelmans,who take hold, who flourish in the graduate atmosphère, whose déterminationis genuine, and whose capacity is productive."Koppelman attributes his académiespurt to other factors than delayed development: "For one thing, the pressurewas off . I could give the work my f ull time.The government's. largesse and a teach-ing fellowship made it economicallysimple. I was older, with a sensé of direction. But the most important thing wasthe osmotic process that was going onhère in Abbot Hall. The great Anton J.Carlson was around. Arno Luckhardtand Franklin MacLean were hère. Youcouldn't help but absorb the excitementfor discovery and vénération for workthèse men exemplified."Koppelman earned his PhD in 1952,with a research project on the chemicalefïects of viral infections. He was im-mediately hired as a Research Associatein biochemistry and, in 1956, becamean Assistant Professor. In 1961 he was chosen, after a nationwide search by theLearning Research Institute and theAmerican Institute of Biological Sciences, to teach "The New Biology" onthe CBS network show "Collège of theAir." Dr. Evans, who had directed hisPhD, believes that Koppelman turnedfrom a good teacher into a great one during that year. "It was a strange feeling atfirst," Koppelman recalls. "I was usedto planning a course and then countingon a kind of feedback from the studentsto keep me on my toes. But hère, for thefirst time, I had no gauge. I had to giveserious thought to the process of teach-ing, to the nature of learning, to the care-ful évolution of a curriculum that flowedfrom reason rather than from the giveand take that goes on in a classroom.When the prop men and caméra crewstarted to ask me questions after 'class,'I knew I was getting through."In 1963 Koppelman was named Associate Professor of Biochemistry and Headof the Collège Biology Section. The nextyear he accepted an additional appointaient as Associate Professor of Education to coordinate the MAT program inbiology. And last year he became Masterof the Collegiate Division of BiologicalSciences and Associate Dean of the Collège. He has maintained membership ineight professional and scientific societiesand has contributed over a dozen articlesto biological journals. His current research is concentrated on the cell. Hisinvestigations of polio virus in animalcells has sought to find the pathwaysalong which instructions flow deep within the cell for the manufacture of oneof its prime components — ribonucleicacid. And — as if teaching, research, andadministration were not enough — he isthe current director of three programsfinanced by the National Science Foundation which seek to improve the teaching of biology at the high school level:one program establishes a summer institute for Chicago area teachers; the second provides a model for year-round"high school-university liaison" in biology; and the third is directed at "undergraduate research participation" as préparation for teaching.It is almost axiomatic in American university life that as an academician climbsthe status ladder of his profession hespends more time on research and lesswith his students. Koppelman, whoviews his new rôle as a Collège Masteras more.educational than administrativein nature, is one scientist who is willingto plant at least one foot firmly in theclassroom. "My primary task," he says,"is to involve more research people inteaching Collège courses."22Frances R. HorwichIn 1952, Frances R. Horwich, then professor and chairman of the Departmentof Education at Chicago's Roosevelt University, received a phone call which wasto catapult her abruptly into a new andexciting career. The call interrupting heracadémie duties came from WNBQ, theChicago station of the NBC télévisionnetwork. Would she be willing to stop bythe studio to give her advice about aproposed TV program for pre-schoolchildren? than her ideas — they wanted her. Thenext day Mrs. Horwich became "MissFrances" of Ding Dong School, the TVNursery School of the Air on NBC. Inthe next five years she gained international famé while delighting and instruct-ing millions of children.Ding Dong School was an instant suc-cess. To the children who watched it—and, to many of their parents— it was adaily event anticipated with uncommonenthusiasm. Miss Frances quickly wonover the children's hearts, while elicitinggratitude from parents, the acclaim ofeducators, and stunned surprise from theTV industry. The basic aim of the showwas to secure the active participation ofMrs. Horwich was well qualified to givesuch advice. After her graduation fromThe University of Chicago in 1929, sheearned a master's degree from ColumbiaUniversity Teacher's Collège and a PhDfrom Northwestern. She accumulatedmany years of expérience as a nurseryand kindergarten teacher, a student-teacher counsellor, an administrator, anda professor of éducation. She had alreadyan impressive list of articles and speak-ing engagements to her crédit and wasfast gaining distinction in her académiefields of specialization— early childhoodand elementary éducation, parent éducation and teacher training, and administration and supervision.Mrs. Horwich agreed to act as a consultant for WNBQ and to do a "closedcircuit audition" on what she thought aTV nursery school should be like. Shehas only a hazy recollection of what shesaid or did in that audition, but her performance convinced the network executives of one thing: they wanted more the audience. When Miss Frances finger-painted, millions across the country werefingerpainting right along with her. Hergoal was to involve the children as créative participants in expériences to broad-en their skills and to increase their appréhension of what she called "the happyvalues of life." And, in so doing, Mrs.Horwich and her show had tremendousinfluence on teacher training programsand nursery school practices throughoutAmerica.Formai récognition of her achievementcame swiftly and has continued; includedamong the formidable number of awardsand citations she has received are severalfrom the Academy of Télévision Artsand Sciences; an honorary Doctor ofPedagogy degree from Bowling GreenUniversity, near her birthplace in Ottawa, Ohio; two télévision awards fromLook magazine; almost yearly awardsfrom the National Association for BetterRadio and Télévision; and alumni citations from ail of her aima maters. Arti cles on her and Ding Dong School hâveappeared in ail the major national magazines, and she has had countless invitations to speak before professional andcivic organizations and at collèges anduniversities throughout the country. Fel-lowships and scholarships hâve beenestablished in her name at Columbia andNorthwestern Universities and at Bar-nard Collège in New York.When Ding Dong School went off theair in 1956, Mrs. Horwich continued towork for NBC as Supervisor of Children's Programs. In 1962 she becameDirector of Children's Activities for theCurtis Publishing Company in Phila-delphia, and just recently she becameDirector of Children's Programming fortélévision station WFLD (Channel 32)in Chicago, a subsidiary of Field Enterprises, Inc. Of her new job, she says,"Working with WFLD's program director, I will develop a rich variety of children's programs. We plan shows that willinform and give the children a sensé ofidentity and belonging. Too many TVprograms rob children of their own ideas,without giving them a chance to thinkand create for themselves. At Channel32, we will give them news, créative arts,literature, and music. Our major aim isto give children a sensé of participation,while challenging their intellect and imagination."Speaking more broadly about the effectson children of mass média, Mrs. Horwich once wrote, "In this âge of swiftcommunication the influence of the massmédia threatens to be almost as important in shaping a child's ideas about people as are expériences with his f amily andfriends. TV programs, picture books andread-aloud stories, ads and pictures inbooks and magazines — from thèse ayoungster learns that certain kinds ofpeople are to be liked and accepted andothers disliked and rejected. In récentyears the mass média, especially TV andmovies, hâve begun to départ from theold stereotyped notions of— say, Negroes,Mexicans, Orientais, not to mention thevery rich, the very poor, and in fact mostwell-defined groups in our society. Thetendency is to show each person honestlyas an individual, with his own virtues andfailings regardless of his status, national-ity, religion, or color."The child who absorbs this attitudetoward human beings is fortunate indeed,for he is being educated for today'sworld. It is a world much smaller, muchless strange and far flung than ever before. We can no longer afford to let peo-ple's différences and dissimilarities blindus to the common attributes of ail hu-mankind."23<:-$/a&4étetéMilwaukeeRay Koppelman, Master of the Collegiate Division of Biology and AssociateProfessor in the departments of Biochemistry and Education, spoke to Milwaukee area alumni on Monday, March7.

Bioengineers aredeveloping telemetry apparatus with ourphysiologists for the purpose of studyingcirculation dynamics in free-ranging animais. I think tomorrow's doctors will beas conversant with computers as today'sare with blood chemistry or fluid balance.The second major change I see is increas-ing development of the basic behavioralsciences and their application to medicine.

Storr"Harper and Rockefeller were opposites in many respects; Harper was pudgyin physique, scholarly in tastes, ebullient in tempérament, and conspicuouslyoutgoing in manner. Had Rockefeller and Harper not in fact collaborated, itwould be easy to overlook their common qualifies (piety, for one) and supposethat they were destined to be antagonists."-From Harper s University.Hère is the fascinating story of the driving forces, ambitions, ideals, and sometimes colliding personalities that com-bined to bring about the establishment of the University ofChicago. Central to that story are two men-William RaineyHarper, the dynamic professor who became its first Président and established the character of the University, andJohn D. Rockefeller, who provided the funds and protectedhis investment with unequaled acumen.Hebraic scholar, teacher of the Old Testament, Harpermade the major premise of biblical scholarship the rule atChicago: God Himself approved of "the search for Histruth," and the University was to be prophet, priest, andsage of democracy, dedicated to the discovery and dissémination of knowledge for the good of mankind.But the University did not flourish on idealism alone. Forthe first fifteen years of its existence, it was perhaps therichest and neediest of American institutions of learning. Harper assembled a faculty of brilliant investigators andteachers who were persuaded to Chicago often to discoverthat promised resources were not to be had. The life of theUniversity depended upon a balance between enterpriseand prudence, greatness of intention and restraint in act.It survived— thanks no less to the insight than to the support of its founder, John D. Rockefeller.When the University was ten years old, Harper summedup what remained to be done: "Much, very much, almosteverything." Dying in his forty-ninth year, he left this taskto his successors, as his own work was transmuted intolegend, not of diminished hope but of immense vitality.Harper s University is the story of the founding of a greatUniversity, of a golden âge and a hero.416 pages, illustrated Before publication, $7.50After July 1966, $8.95S.NU of C PRESS X11030 South LangleyChicago, Illinois 60628Pre-publication offer!
