Katherine Dunhamwill receive a Distinguished Service Awardfrom the American Anthropological Association at its 1985 annual meeting this December, for her contributions to the anthropologyof dance.Dancer and anthropologist Pearl Primuswill also be honored .June Helm, PhB'44, AM'49, PhD'58President-elect,American Anthropological AssociationIowa City, IAEditor's note: We neglected to mention inthe article that Dunham received a ProfessionalAchievement Award in 1968 from the Alumni As-sociaton. Plans are underway for a week-longDunham retrospective in Chicago for next spring.THE ORIGINAL CASEY?Editor:In perusing Casey at the Bat in the Summer, 1985, issue, I compulsively noticed aninconsistency. Out of curiosity you maywant to ask Mr. Gardner about the same.Stanza four of the ballad mentions JimmyBlake but stanza five, referring to the sameMr. Blake, calls him Johnny. Was Mr. Thayer's original Mr. Blake Jimmy or Johnny? Ido not expect the answer to change theprice of rice in China but just thought Iwould challenge Mr. Gardner because hestated "this is the original version ofCasey— word for word, comma for comma—exactly as it appeared in the fourth column of the fourth page of the San FranciscoExaminer, Sunday morning, June 3, 1888."Paul A. Fee, M.D.Martin Gardner replies: Dr. Fee's sharpeyes caught one of two errors in the first printingof Casey. In my book on Casey / have nineteenfootnotes to this original version of the ballad.Note 12, on the line that mentions "Johnnie,"reads: "A printer's mistake. It should have beenJimmy."In William Schuman's opera The MightyCasey we learn that Blake's full name is JamesElmer Blake. He played third base. As "Bobo"Blake, he was also the leader of a local dance bandcalled the Mudville Melodians. WHAT ARE THEYREALLY DOING?Editor:I would like to point out a minor inconsistency in the article "The Good Citizen— AThreatened Species?" (Summer, 1985). Thecaption for the picture on the title page of thearticle mentions the Pledge of Allegiance, Circa 1889. However, according to the 1985 WorldAlmanac the original Pledge of Allegiance wasfirst published in the September 8, 1892, issueof the Youth 's Companion.Robert J. Shlifer, MBA'67Longmeadow, MAEditor's note: The reference librarian at theUniversity of Chicago reports: You are correct.The Pledge of Allegiance was, indeed, firstpublished in 1892. But, he adds, it had been usedbefore that time. As a matter of fact, publicationresulted in a dispute over its proper wording.FACULTY FORMDIVESTMENT COMMITTEEEditor:As alumni of the University and members of its faculty, we would like to informother alumni about FDSA, a newly formedcommittee of Faculty for Divestment inSouth Africa.The Committee seeks to promote discussion in the University community toward the end of persuading the Universityto divest itself of holdings in corporationsthat are themselves invested in South Africa. That country's legislated segregationand oppression of its black population— theso-called apartheid system— is an abomination. Members of this committee believethat corporate support for South Africaamounts to support for this system, whichhas remained as oppressive as ever duringthe recent period of growth in American investment there. The committee urges theUniversity to exercise both its moral leadership and its economic leverage by reshaping its investment portfolio in the light ofthis recognition. The committee sees no valid reason to think such reinvestment a violation of the fiduciary responsibilities of theUniversity's trustees.In the coming months FDSA will circulate a faculty petition that will appear in theMaroon early in the autumn quarter. It plansto disseminate literature on affairs in SouthAfrica, on the effects of American involvement there, and on the feasibility of divestment as a strategy of opposition. It alsoplans a University-wide teach-in in the autumn quarter. The committee invites comment, information, and support from interested alumni.

Robert L. Pay ton, AM '54, has beenpresident of Exxon Education Foundationsince 1977. He had served earlier as presidentof Hofstra University and C. W. Post College, and was U. S. Ambassador to the Federal Republic of Cameroon from 1967 to1969.Payton was on the staff of WashingtonUniversity in St. Louis for nine years, serving as vice-chancellor from 1961 to 1966.Currently, he is a member of the VisitingCommittee to the College of the University ofChicago.In 1984 the Council for Advancementand Support of Education (CASE) presentedits Distinguished Service to EducationAward to Payton. CASE presents the awardannually to the person, publication, or organization performing a service of nationalsignificance to education.CASE praised Payton for his "enlightened philanthropy" as head of the Exxon Education Foundation, as well as his accomplishments as president of HofstraUniversity and C W. Post College, and as auniversity publications editor at WashingtonUniversity. They also cited him for "developing professionalism" in the fields of campuspublic relations, fund-raising, and alumnirelations.On a recent visit to Chicago, Paytontook time out to talk to the Magazine's editor, Felicia Antonelli Holton, on his favoritetopic— the failure of colleges and universitiesto study or teach about philanthropy. Theeditor's interview with Payton follows:Holton: You have said that you feelthat scholars should study the philanthropic tradition, and that they shouldteach students about it. Can you explain why you feel this way?Payton: The value of philanthropyoriginated in ancient practice and belief, and modern philanthropy has lostits conscious grip on that tradition.Today, policymakers are further re-UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO MAGAZINE/FALL 1985Photo by James L. BallardThere is very littleserious effort to helppeople who work in thephilanthropic world getat the theory and thehistory of their work."moved from the recipients of charityand philanthropy than was the case insimpler and smaller societies. As giving and receiving become increasinglysystematized and specialized, organizational values replace personal ones.Detached from religion, charity andphilanthropy lose their place to value-neutral terms like "grant making" and"contributions." We should try todeepen our understanding of the issues by encouraging scholars, practitioners, and policymakers to engage instudy and discussion of philanthropicvalues, their origins, and their modernexpression.For the past several years I have beentalking— interminably, I'm afraid—about the need to study philanthropy. Idon't want to imply that there aren'tany serious scholars at work on thesubject. The historian Barry Karl hereat the University of Chicago, for example, and Stanley Katz, now at Princeton, have launched a major explorationof that unique American institution,the philanthropic foundation, and theimpact of foundations on the formation of public policy in America.Franklin Gamwell, dean of the DivinitySchool at Chicago, has recently published an important and original analysis of voluntary associations.But there is no such thing as a synthesisof the philanthropic tradition as yet,nor is there an integration of the tradition into the educational experience ofundergraduates.The personal obligation to act to relievethe suffering of others— the concept ofcharity— arose in a religious context.What happens to such an idea in a society that becomes systematically secular? In many cases it seems to me to fallinto a vague humanitarian mush, orsimply shift from a very precise anddisturbing personal obligation to a much more distant and impersonal collective responsibility.Edward Shils— to name another Chicago contributor to this dialogue— in hisbook, Tradition, makes it clear that traditions that are not dynamic, if not reinforced attenuate rather quickly. If wedo not teach young people about theimportance of voluntary service andvoluntary giving in our society — if wedo not really understand those ideasourselves — then we have every reasonto be fearful. Every other society in thewestern tradition has drifted awayfrom its philanthropic practice. Onlyrecently have some begun to appreciate the value of what was so casuallyabandoned a generation ago.Holton: Can you explain what youmean when you say "drifted away"from this tradition?Payton: I think it is instructive to lookat the European experience after WorldWar II. In much of western Europe theintention was for the state to replacevoluntary charity. Basic needs were tobe met as a matter of right, not privilege. The state also assumed the responsibility for philanthropy— forenhancing the quality of life in thecommunity— replacing individual patronage of the arts and scholarship, forexample. Along with the drying up ofvoluntary giving, there is also a declineof voluntary service. Because the stateprovides so many things, there is also no encouragement of voluntary association in the public interest. Where wehave in this country positively encouraged all three of these dimensionsof the philanthropic tradition-voluntary giving, voluntary service,and voluntary association— other societies have neglected them or even imposed disincentives on one or more ofthem. There is no significant "independent sector" in most societies ofthe world. In American society thatsector represents 93 million volunteers, $75 billion in contributions, seven million full-time jobs, and almost800,000 organizations.Yet for the most part, when you talkwith a group of faculty members in thehumanities and social sciences, youwill find that for most of them it is thefirst time they've ever been engaged ina serious academic discussion of thesubject. You may at the moment bemeeting in a building built with philanthropic dollars, you may have studentssupported by scholarship funds inyour classes, your own professorshipmay be endowed, yet you may still findit possible to ignore the tradition altogether. It is extraordinary to me thatthe philanthropic tradition can sodeeply permeate American academiclife — American society as a whole —and yet be simply ignored intellectually by the vast majority of scholars.Holton: Can you expand on the ideathat an unsupported tradition maydisappear?Payton: Let me give you an exact analogy of what I mean. In 1969 when I returned from Africa and became president of C. W Post College on LongIsland, I found myself in the midst ofturmoil on the campus. One of theprincipal issues at that point was thestudent attack on general education requirements. In the faculty debates that3Acts of charity andphilanthropy revealcomplicated issues ofpolitical, economic, andsocial philosophy, butthey also reveal somedeeply human insightsas well."ensued it became apparent to me thatthe people teaching at that time hadinherited the ideas of general educationbut had not internalized them at all. Theysimply imposed requirements with nophilosophical understanding of whythe requirements were there. In the debate on the foreign language requirement, for example, the head of modernlanguages expressed great anxietyabout the outcome: "You know whatwill happen if we do this — we'll lose ourjobs."The same kinds of forces are at work inthe philanthropic tradition. We don'tfully grasp the continuing importanceof private voluntary charity and philanthropy in our society. Other alternatives are suggested and we quicklyabandon the lessons of the past. At onepoint in recent history, that meantshifting responsibility from individuals to the society as a whole; more recently, it has been shifting responsibilities from the state and from thenon-profit sector into the marketplace.Holton: Could you explain what youmean when you say that modern philanthropy has lost its conscious gripon the tradition?Payton: Consider the change that hastaken place over the years in giving bybusiness. John D. Rockefeller, Sr., began tithing as a religious obligationwhile still a teenager. It was a personalresponse to a religious mandate. Hispurpose was not to serve man but toserve God. Over the years that personal obligation of business owners likeRockefeller becomes a collective obligation when those companies areguided by managers. For a variety ofother reasons as well, managers oflarge corporations today are much lesslikely to impose their personal valueson the corporation, especially their religious values. The corporation thentends to become a strongly secularinstitution. This has happened at a time when thestate has become the source of moralvalues. It is a time when we criticize thebusiness corporation for being amoraland yet deny it any moral voice. Theassumption is that we will be able topreserve philanthropic and charitablevalues completely detached from fundamental personal beliefs and convictions. I am doubtful that such a worldis possible, but I don't claim to know towhat extent it matters or how it matters. I want simply to ask how life willbe different, how people will be different, how relationships between peoplewill change, if we secularize and depersonalize such things as voluntarygiving and acts of charity.I came on a meditation by an Englishtheologian a few years ago that promptsme to ask whether a Christian can meethis religious obligations to others bypaying his taxes in a welfare state. Ithink some people would accept that:that the high purposes of charity andphilanthropy can be disposed of bymandatory income transfers.A British rock star participating in thegreat television extravaganza for Ethiopian relief made an impassionedstatement to the effect that the needs ofstarving children should not be met byvoluntary charity of this kind— itshould never come to that. As a matterof justice, he said, people should haveenough to eat. He seemed not to havethought much about why that proves to be such a difficult problem for theworld: why political and economic systems seem to fail, why voluntary actionof some kind, for someone, seems always to be necessary, whether in Ethiopia or America or Cuba or Cameroon,That strong sense of justice is verymuch in the Chicago tradition, at leastas I remember it from my days here andas I infer from Visiting Committee visits. The combination of justice andfreedom, however, continues to leaveus with failures of various kinds, failures which some people always seemto respond to voluntarily, personally,directly, often courageously. Acts ofcharity and philanthropy reveal complicated issues of political, economic,and social philosophy, but they also reveal some deeply human insights aswell. They are issues and insights thattouch the lives of every student, andwe should help students to understand them better.Holton: Can you suggest what students would look into, in a study ofphilanthropy?Payton: Philanthropic values are expressed in every great civilized tradition, every great religious tradition.They are central to the Judeo-Christian, Greco-Roman Western tradition. Almsgiving is one of the pillarsof Islam. Benevolence is obviously important in Buddhist thought. Yet as faras I know there is no convenient sourceof information about the different religious traditions in their beliefs andpractices in charity and philanthropy,not even a convenient collection oftexts of the prototypical religious statements about them.Why is it that the philanthropic tradition manifests itself so differently indifferent societies? Within a few milesof my office in midtown Manhattanone could undertake a comparativestudy of philanthropic values andpractices in most of the cultural tradi-4 UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO MAGAZINE/FALL 1985tions of the world. Most of the samecultural variety is available on or nearthis campus. How do philanthropicpractices differ in Muslim cultures?How is the Koran interpreted differently among Indonesian Muslims, forexample, or among the various Islamicsocieties of the Middle East? How doesAfrican Muslim practice differ fromthose? Compare philanthropic practiceamong orthodox, conservative, and reformed Jews. Compare philanthropicpractice among those who are openlyreligious in their approach with thosewho are secular.Holton: Do you see philanthropy andvolunteerism taught elsewhere thanin anthropology and religion courses?Payton: I don't teach and so I can onlyspeculate. Public policy courses mightfocus on the question of the shiftingboundaries among the three sectors ofgovernment, marketplace, and thenon-profit world— on "reprivatiza-tion" of welfare services, for example.Business schools tried for a while todeal with the social responsibility ofbusiness corporations, but I don'tthink there has been a serious reexamination of the fundamental casefor corporate philanthropy in morethan thirty years. The moral questionof providing assistance to "geneticstrangers"— the outpouring of relieffrom America and Europe to helpstarving Ethiopians, for example —remains problematic. The changed human relationships that arise whenagents intervene between givers andreceivers is a growing problem. Howdoes one organize large-scale fund-raising and keep some sense of personal involvement? (In the developmentoffices of most colleges and universities those are agonizing issues.) Thenegative attitude toward philanthropists is eloquently expressed in literature, especially in such writers asDickens or more recently in Vonnegut.History, literature, philosophy, sociol- The philanthropictradition— theindependent sector ofvoluntary service, giving,and association— isthe wellspring of mostof the social changein our society."ogy, psychology, law, business ... allof the social sciences and humanitiesand most of the professions have reason to deal with some aspect of thephilanthropic tradition.The philanthropic tradition— the independent sector of voluntary service,giving, and association— is the well-spring of most of the social change inour society. It is the source of the cultural innovation that changes the values as well as the behavior of our society. It provides the medium of moraldiscourse that establishes and modifies the public agenda. I believestrongly that this tradition is directlyrelated to our survival as a free andopen and democratic society. Yet we donot yet have philanthropic histories ofthe civil rights movement, the environmental movement, the women's movement, the human rights movement— orhistories of the countervailing movements that have risen up against themin the same sector.Holton: Were you yourself consciousof the philanthropic tradition beforebecoming president of Exxon Education Foundation?Payton: I was conscious of only oneside of the process; the other side wasthere to be dealt with, not understood.I didn't have any sense of the workingsof the marketplace of philanthropicsources, for example, no sense thatthere was a theoretical model that would help me better understand whatI was trying to do and why. The emphasis of almost all of the so-called "professional" organizations related togrant making and fund-raising is how-to sessions of one sort or another.There is very little serious effort to helppeople who work in the philanthropicworld get at the theory and the historyof their work. I think that failure is related to the relatively low social standing of such people on most campuses,for example, and to the relatively highturnover among people working inthis field.In ancient Israel, the most honoredpeople in the community were thoseentrusted with the responsibility tocollect and distribute alms.I am fascinated by the ways the relationships among people changein different aspects of philanthropy.There is the familiar superior-inferior,dominance-dependence relationshipreflected in statements such as "I'drather die than accept charity fromanybody." That provides an insight into traditions of individualism as well.There is the phenomenon so familiar inlarge cities of derelicts seeking handouts (even the language has echoes ofthe nineteenth century). I discoveredas a new commuter into Manhattanconfronted with this phenomenonevery day that I made a distinction between giving to derelicts and giving totheir agents. That is, inexplicably, Iwould walk past a blind man with a cupwithout giving him anything, but Iwould go out of my way to make a giftto a Catholic nun or to a SalvationArmy petitioner, each there to raisealms in behalf of the blind man or others in similar straits.One factor at work in dealing with basic needs as basic rights is to assuredignity in human relationships. Thehope is to achieve dignity by minimizing differences. Yet part of our problemI would walk past ablind man with a cup . . .but I would go out ofmy way to make a giftto a Catholic nun orto a Salvation Armypetitioner, each there toraise alms in behalf ofthe blind man or othersin similar straits."is our misguided notion that some ofus don't need help while others do.Only those who have led uniquelysheltered lives could believe they arebeyond the need of charity.Holton: You said that philanthropycontinues to be the source of most social and cultural innovation. Wouldyou elaborate on that?Payton: Social innovations are themost obvious ones. As I understandthe environmental movement, for example, a few people re-thought thepurposes of what had been called conservation and began to formulate anew case for protecting the environment from human despoliation, muchof it resulting from actions of the marketplace. Much of the early work camefrom academic scientists who wereconcerned about the effects of industrial pollution on the public water supply.The initiative of individuals in callingthe problem to the attention of othersled to the formation of organizations todo something about it. The organizations were to serve the public ratherthan individual private interests. Theywere not able to sustain themselves inthe marketplace, and at that point intime government did not have a clearsense of its role in the matter.Organizations need money to carry ontheir work; investors are not availablefor non-profit, especially "negative-profit" activities. In our system, suchorganizations are helped by beingmade exempt from taxation; people areencouraged to give to them by beinggiven tax deductions for doing so.The environmental movement may bestudied as an illustration of socialmovements: it is a "SP(I)N," as twoMinnesota anthropologists once put it.The movement is segmented (S) overtime as organizations compete forleadership around different strategies;the movement is polycephalous (P) inthat several people emerge as the prin cipal voices of concern; the movementis a loose affiliation of people and organizations in a network (N); and thewhole thing is held together by a senseof a common enemy — that is, by an ideology (I). That is the context in whichmany voluntary associations come together and claim our attention. Manyfail. Some, however, so win our attention and approval that politicians andjournalists and academics accord theirblessing and public policy begins tochange.Holton: As president of the ExxonEducation Foundation what are youdoing to encourage people to studyand teach about philanthropy?Payton: All too little, I'm afraid. Thephilanthropic tradition is not on the tipof academic tongues, and so we arehounded all too seldom to pay attention to the subject. We have long supported efforts to improve the quality offund-raising and to achieve more professional standards of institutionaldevelopment, but no foundation orcorporation that I know of has yet developed a grant program in educationabout the philanthropic tradition.I chair two "seminars" on philanthropy, however. The first began two yearsago at Columbia University. The Columbia Seminars are permanent seminars, usually meeting monthly, andusually made up half of faculty members (from Columbia and other institu tions) and half from professional fieldsand corporations. This fall the Columbia Seminar on Philanthropy will begin a year-long case study of philanthropy in action. Our first case will bethe Ethiopian crisis. We will invitescholars and specialists to make presentations about the voluntary organizations at work in Ethiopia, aboutfund-raising in the United States andin Europe, about philanthropic valuesamong the Ethiopian people themselves, about the extraordinary roleplayed by the news media and advertising, and so on. Our hope is to develop an annual series of case studies inthis seminar format, and to publishthem as we go along. (Donald Levine,dean of the College at the University ofChicago, once specialized in Ethiopiansociety and he has been very helpful inmaking suggestions of other scholarswe might call upon. I wish we couldborrow him for the year.)The other seminar is unique, I think.The Exxon Seminar on Philanthropy ismodeled on the Columbia seminar butit is restricted to Exxon employees suchas myself who are engaged in makinggrants for the corporation. The majority are individuals who have primaryresponsibilities other than philanthropy but who advise us on philanthropicdecisions — on support of environmental organizations, for example, or onsupport of a new degree program inMiddle Eastern studies. Our seminarmeets once a month for several hours(toward the end of the day, I shouldadd, so that the participants impose ontheir personal time as well as on business hours). If we are able to sustainthis effort for a few years, we'll have anucleus of people widely distributedwithin the company who are informedin depth about the ways the philanthropic system works in American society, and what the relationship of thebusiness corporation to that process isand ought to be.6 UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO MAGAZINE/FALL 1985Through my work with IndependentSector, the Council for Advancementand Support of Education, and otherorganizations, I am in regular contactwith scholars like Barry Karl here atChicago, with John Simon who headsthe Program on Nonprofit Organizations at Yale, with individual scholarsat Penn and Virginia and Syracuse.There is a growing body of people andorganizations intellectually interestedin philanthropy— it is premature tospeak of a "movement"— and the cumulative efforts are beginning to havesome effect. What I most want to see isthe development of teaching materialsthat can be conveniently added topresent course offerings. The thematicgeneral education courses on the philanthropic tradition will arise out of theinterest of individual faculty members,or not at all.Holton: Was there a historical precedent, for Exxon, in the DistinguishedService to Education Award that youreceived from CASE (Council for theAdvancement and Support of Education) in 1984?Payton: Yes. In 1953, the award was given to Frank W Abrams, who was thenchairman of Standard Oil Company ofNew Jersey, the company now calledExxon. Frank Abrams establishedExxon Education Foundation in 1955.He was the first corporate executive Iheard about when I entered universityadministration in 1957. Abrams had ledthe effort to clarify the right of corporate management to make contributions where there was no direct benefitto the company or its shareholders.The landmark case of A.R Smith Company vs. Barlow in New Jersey in 1953involved an action by a shareholder,Mrs. Barlow, to prevent the companyfrom making an unrestricted gift of$1,500 to Princeton. Judge Stein heardtestimony from people like FrankAbrams, Alfred R Sloan of GeneralMotors, and others, and was persuad- Will (my grandson)learn about thephilanthropic tradition?I really believe that thephilanthropic traditionneeds and deservesthe best thought ofthe best people, andperhaps my grandsonwill benefit from theirwork and wisdom."ed by them that such a practice was indeed in the long-term interest of thecompany and its shareholders, as wellas important to freedom in Americansociety.Two years later Exxon created ExxonEducation Foundation; in addition togrants in support of such things aschemical engineering, which the company had been making since 1919, thenew foundation made unrestrictedgifts to liberal arts colleges. The firstfunding provided to the foundation byExxon and some of its affiliated companies amounted to $1.5 million in1955. Our grants in 1984 exceeded $30million, representing something morethan fifty-two percent of Exxon domestic contributions for all purposes.The grants included support for thosecompany-related interests like chemical engineering; they also includedsubstantial amounts for the humanities and social sciences.Holton: Have you been able to convince anyone to start teaching aboutphilanthropy?Payton: Most of what I've done is tomeet other people who have come tothe subject as I have— from personalexperience combined with intellectualcuriosity. (Whenever anyone asks mewhat my field was, I also reply that Iwent to the University of Chicago.)Interaction with these scholars andpractitioners is a wonderfully reward ing, often exhilarating experience. Ithas added a new dimension to my understanding of the American educational system, and to the unique qualities of American society.Now that I have a grandson to thinkabout, I am concerned about the placeof the philanthropic tradition in theworld in which he hammers out his lifeand career. He will graduate from highschool in the year 2000. If he attendsthe University of Chicago, Will he paytuition or will the state pay his way?Will he apply for a scholarship fundedby private gifts?Will he learn about the philanthropictradition? The University of Chicago isas appropriate a place for the traditionto become intellectually important asany I know. I really believe that thephilanthropic tradition needs and deserves the best thought of the best people, and perhaps my grandson willbenefit from their work and wisdom.But more important than my grandsonknowing about the philanthropic tradition is another question:Will he practice it?Bibliographical note:Karl, Barry, and Stanley Katz.

Hi - - '••¦ ¦ In Turkey, Robert and Linda Braidwoodhave uncovered surprisingly sophisticatedbuildings, which date to about 7,250 B. C.TheWorld!sFirst FormalArchitecture?By Brigitta CarlsonNear the headwaters of the ancientTigris in southeastern Turkey anexpedition co-directed by RobertBraidwood, field director of thePrehistoric Project for the University's Oriental Institute, has unearthed what may be the earliestformal architecture ever created.Three communally built structures uncovered by a team of archeologists from the University of Chicago, Istanbul University, and Karlsruhe University are surprisingly old, dating from 7,250 B.C. to 6,750B.C., and in their detailing, unexpectedly sophisticated."What I think we have here," said Braidwood, PhD'43,professor emeritus in the Oriental Institute and theDepartment of Anthropology, "is the first evidence thatchanges began to happen much faster than we realized,once people began controlling their food supply."The buildings were uncovered in Cayonu (pronouncedchi-'oe-noo), short for Cayonu Tepesi, meaning "themound in front of the stream," where Robert Braidwoodand his wife, Linda Schreiber Braidwood, AM'46, OrientalInstitute associate, have been excavating since 1964.In one building the archeologists have found roughly fifty human skulls, cut off just above the ears, and seemingly burned. A specialist in human osteology at Hacitepe University in Ankara, Turkey, is analyzing these, along withother human bones found buried in the same building. Butwhat the three structures were intended for isn't certain."I can tell you their purpose," said Braidwood, leaninghis lanky frame back to laugh at what he doesn't know, "itwas either sacred or secular. Anyway, we think it was not domestic."But archeologists have already gleaned some informationfrom the remains at Cayonu. There is an elaborate terrazzofloor in one building, for example, made of salmon-coloredlimestone and lines of white marble chips set in cement."When we found the floor, we thought at first it must be fromGreco-Roman times," said Braidwood. "We had no idea thepeople at this early time were so advanced." The people whocreated the floor had mastered the pyrotechnology necessaryto create cement by burning limestone. Stones for the buildings must have been moved by a group of people, becausedraft animals hadn't been domesticated yet. That the villagehad time and was organized enough to manage this suggeststhat basic needs for food and shelter had been satisfied and asimple political structure formed.(Top, left) Detail of the terrazzo floor.

The great importance of Cayonuand sites like it in the Near East is thatthey are humankind's first settlements,made possible after plants and animalswere domesticated. Braidwood once referred to these early communities as the"germ plasma" of western culture, because they preceded and, indeed,heralded, the advent of the great literatecivilizations that grew in the lower riverbasins of Egypt and Mesopotamia. Thediscovery of such early architecture,Braidwood suggests, is evidence thatonce human beings did settle down,their cultural development quickened ata rate archeologists hadn't anticipated.Other details of the three build- common to the area. (A sample of thestone is being tested at Karlsruhe University.) The building itself has a foundation of roughly dressed limestone.Archeological discoveries tend toreveal themselves slowly. As early as1964 when the Braidwoods began theirexcavation of Cayonii they were awareof a building with a flagstone floor."Yes, this was an unusual building,nothing like it had ever been encountered before," said Braidwood. "So weset it aside as something that we wouldlook into later on." In 1970 the terrazzofloor was uncovered. "We knew thiswas something special," he said, "butsomehow or other we didn't really un-10 UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO MAGAZINE/FALL 1985derstand it." In 1981 they discoveredthe first of the skulls in the third building. "But it still didn't soak throughcompletely. And then last year we finally realized that here was somethingthat was really very special."Cayonu is also unusual for its storeof small copper artifacts. "One thingthat's peculiar about Cayonu is the lackof small (stone) finds," said LindaBraidwood, who is a specialist inchipped stone artifacts. (RobertBraidwood's special expertise originallywas pottery. "But then I very cleverly re-focused myself back to a time when theyweren't making any pots yet," he said,laughing.) Instead of the small figurinesthat were plentiful at similar sites wherethe Braidwoods had excavated, in Cayonu the archeologists uncovered thirtyor forty pieces of copper. Half of themare recognizable little pins, drills,hooks, and other tools, presumablywrought out of native copper from astill-productive mine only fifteen milesupslope from the settlement. "They realized that this (copper) behaved in away that natural stone did not," saidBraidwood.Cayonii followed a revolution inlifeways that culminated around 8,000B.C. "Some people don't like to use theword 'revolution,' for the food-producing revolution," said Braidwood."I'm still comfortable with it becausegiven the enormous time span before it,when things changed, they did so in ahurry." Of the revolution's importanceBraidwood once wrote, "After nearlytwo million years of cultural evolutionbased solely on predatory food-gathering, hunting and collecting,much had to be changed. The oldfolkways, the old notions of property,the old gods, the old morals, needed renovation as well as did the objects of everyday use."Exploring the origins and the earlyresults of this great transition has beenthe major occupation of the Braidwoodssince they inaugurated the OrientalInstitute's Prehistoric Project in 1947."I've often wondered whether my innate incompetence at language studyhelped focus my early interests on preli-terate societies," Braidwood once jokedin a retrospective essay in the archeolog-ical journal Antiquity. When pressed hefinds it difficult to say just what led himto anthropology at the University ofMichigan during the Great Depression,though his start as an architecture student in 1929 was ill-fated. "The combi nation of wretched scholarship and theonset of the Great Depression auguredill for a career in architecture," he wrotein the same essay. He turned instead to acombined curriculum in ancient historyand anthropology and in 1930 joined aMichigan expedition south of Baghdad."That did it," he said. "I've earned myliving at archeology ever since."Linda Braidwood jokes that she"sort of got bludgeoned into it by marriage" after general studies at the University of Michigan and a career inmerchandising. But their conversationis dense with references and ideas thathave been agreeably shared and debated for a lifetime. After Braidwood finished his master's degree at Michiganhe joined the Oriental Institute's expedition to sites in the Amouq in northwestern Syria where, in 1937, in the fallof the year they married, Linda joinedhim. Funding was cut back in 1938 andthe Braidwoods came back to Chicagoto work on graduate degrees. At theend of World War II, as the Braidwoodsprepared papers for a year-long anthropology course called "Human Origins," their plans for investigating thebeginnings of human beings' evolutioninto farmers finally coalesced.In 1947, when it became possible forthe Oriental Institute to return tofieldwork in Iraq, the Braidwoods began work on the prehistoric village ofJarmo, on advice from a friend whowas an advisor to the Iraqi Directorateof Antiquities. The excavation of Jarmocontinued until 1958 when the Iraqimonarchy fell and political instabilityensued.It was while they were working atJarmo that Braidwood introducedwhat was then a ground-breakingmulti-disciplinary approach tofieldwork. He invited scientists fromthe natural sciences to join him in recovering and interpreting the evidenceof human beings' early food-production. Each was assigned to apply his or her specialty to figure outwhat the plant and animal resources inthe area had been in prehistoric times,the strategies these ancient people hadused to procure and use certain ofthese resources efficiently, and, finally, the process by which certain wildplant and animal species had becomedomesticated.In his lab at the Oriental InstituteBraidwood said, simply, "We neededhelp," and laughed. "I myself can't tella wheat plant from a barley plant. I can tell a sheep from a goat, but I couldn'ttell the bones of a sheep from those of agoat. It was clear, we needed help."The National Science Foundationwas so taken by the Braidwoods' interestin using natural scientists in archeologythat they offered the Braidwoods funding. "When I came out of my dead faint. . . "mused Braidwood, describing theday that the late Carl Kraeling, then director of the Oriental Institute, calledhim up to meet the NSF official who offered him funding then and there. During their years of work at Jarmo, Sarab inIran, and Cayonu, the Braidwoods havebeen able to employ the expertise of aPleistocene geologist; zoologists; a lim-nologist, who studies the physical,chemical, meteorological, and biologicalconditions of fresh water; a dental paleontologist; paleoethnobotanists whostudy food plants, agronomy and plantgenetics, micro-botanies, and historicalforest patterns; and palynologists, whostudy pollen patterns. These specialistshave helped the Braidwoods gain amuch broader understanding of life inthe seventh millenium villages.The Braidwoods have been able towork at Cayonii through a special collaboration with Istanbul University, arranged by Halet Cambel, professor andhead of the university's prehistoricprogram. "We wanted to work in theupper Tigris valley but we hadn't beenable to make any headway," said Braidwood. "It was a military zone and foreigners weren't allowed." It wasthrough Cambel, a good friend, thatthe Istanbul-Chicago Universities JointPrehistoric Project was created. Since1978 Wulf Schirmer, head of the Institute for Architecture at Karlsruhe University, has also been a participant.In September the Braidwoods returned to Cayonii for another diggingseason. Robert Braidwood has beenemeritus since 1975, but the thought ofactually retiring does not appeal tohim. After fifty-five years spent excavating archeological sites, he's stillintrigued by the quest. Speaking of thediscovery in Cayonii of these specialtypes of buildings, which appeared soearly in the development of village-farming communities, he concludedthat their importance may be only transitory. "Come and see me again tomorrow," he said. "There may be startlingnew evidence just uncovered, either atCayonii or some other site, of far greater importance. That's the fascination ofarcheology."HnUT lor/oyce Dannen MillerFighting forWomen's Rightsin the WorkplaceJoyce Dannen Miller,after thirty-four years in the labormovement, still sees unions as"a source for social good."By Marianne Eismann For women who want to fightwage discrimination in the workplace, Joyce Dannen Miller hasthis advice: Join a union.Miller, PhB'49, AM'51, is vice-president and director of social services for the Amalgamated Clothing andTextile Workers Union and nationalpresident of the Coalition of LaborUnion Women (CLUW). Since leavingthe University in 1951 she has spentthirty-four years working to improvethe status of women in the workplace.In 1980, Miller made labor union history when she became the first womanappointed to the executive council ofthe AFL-CIO. Like the fabled names ofthe labor movement of earlier years—names like Joe Hill— Miller's name willbe remembered. She is already commemorated in this verse added toWoody Guthrie's song Union Maid:Not many days ago, in the AFL-CIO,Lane looked around and this is what hefound:Not a single woman on the executiveboard.He said, "That's mighty strange,I think we need a change."So he held a meeting,Male chauvinism took a beating.Joyce Miller was her name.Speaking of Miller's history-making appointment to the executivecouncil of the AFL-CIO, LaneKirkland, its president, says Miller wasthe "unanimous choice to become thefirst woman elected as vice-presidentof the AFL-CIO because of her outstanding record as a trade union leader." Since her election, Kirkland says,Miller has "taken on an important rolein the deliberations and committees ofthe executive council and has earnedthe respect and regard of the leaders ofthe nation's major trade unions."(There are now two women on thecouncil. Barbara Hutchinson, directorof the women's department of theAmerican Federation of GovernmentEmployees, was appointed in November, 1981.)Miller's appointment, also unusualbecause she was not president of aunion, the rank previously required forexecutive council membership, wasevidence of the "outstanding record"of which Kirkland speaks. In addition12 UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO MAGAZINE/FALL 1985Marjanne Eismann, AM'84, is a doctoral candidate in English.to the positions cited above, Miller alsois a trustee of the German MarshallFund of the United States, the GeorgeMeany Center for Labor Studies, theAmalgamated Social Benefits Association, the Amalgamated DepartmentStore and Retail Employees Insuranceand Pension Funds, the AmalgamatedChicago Group Employees PensionPlan, and the Rochdale Institute.Miller is also a director of theAmalgamated Trust and Savings Bankand a member of the U.S. MetricBoard, the U.S. Social Security Commission, the President's Export Council, the AFL-CIO Standing Committeeon Civil Rights, the AFL-CIO Community Services Committee, the NationalCommission on Working Women, andthe Public Affairs Committee. Addmembership on the executive or advisory boards of a dozen and a half moreservice, labor, and educational institutions and you begin to get the picture.But it's only the beginning, the grayoutline of the picture. Color and toneappear when Miller talks about the beliefs that led to those jobs and to herposition today as one of the country'stop labor leaders and spokespersons.After thirty-four years in the labormovement, Miller still sees that movement as "a source for social good inthis country." Moreover, she says she isfar from unique in her beliefs. "If youscratch the surface," she said in an interview in her New York office, "youwill find a lot of people like me withidealism for the labor movement."Others, she knows, don't always see ither way and sometimes look on organized labor as a "macho," monolithicinstitution with "criminal" overtones.The labels are Miller's own examples of"the kind of stereotypes you have tobreak ." She believes the U . S . is " a basically anti-union society" and that antiunion feeling is fostered by an image oflabor as a big, bad, special interestgroup. That image "is perception, notfact," she says, and is spread by "thepresent administration in Washingtonand ... by some of the successesunions have had."The press has not helped to counter that image, Miller says. "Wheneverthey can write a juicy, anti-labor story,they will." Miller is executive director of the Hillman Foundation, which wasfounded in 1950 to provide, accordingto its own description, a "forum foroutstanding and progressive thinkersin every walk of life." The foundationtries to counter what Miller calls a "badpress" with awards which "honor andencourage a sense of social awarenessin newspapers, books, magazine articles, and radio and television programs." Recent award winners includeSeymour Hersh, AB'58, for his book onHenry Kissinger, The Price of Power andCarl Sagan, AB'54, SB'55, SM'56,PhD'60, for his article, "Nuclear Warand Climactic Catastrophe," in ForeignAffairs magazine.Miller, an expert on the status ofwomen in the work force, cites the pertinent statistics: A woman earns sixty-two cents for every dollar a man earns.Twenty percent of all children live insingle-parent homes. Ninety percentof those homes have a woman as headof the household. By 1990, there will beten million more working women thanthere were in 1980, and many of thosewill be mothers of young children.During President Ronald Reagan's firstterm, families headed by women wereleft with less money to spend while average income for all Americans increased. Union women are paid thirtypercent more than non-union women.Union membership is especiallyimportant for women if wage inequalities are to be erased, Miller says. Whilethe growing use of high technology hascreated jobs, women still, in general,occupy the lowest-paying of thosejobs. The continued existence of"pink-collar" ghettoes— the clerical,sales, and restaurant jobs held for themost part by women— are what mayprovoke a resurgence of interest inunion membership, Miller believes."A union contract doesn't knowsex," she states emphatically, reiterating her point that union women earnnearly a third more than non-unionwomen. Wages, not the job itself, arethe main factor in creating the "ghetto," she says. She believes that a unioncontract setting uniform pay scales formen and women in the same job is theanswer to the problem. "As wages goup, you'll find men entering the field.When we raise the standard for wom en, we feel we're raising it for men."Miller's personal and professionalgoals are integrated in those of theCoalition of Labor Union Womenwhich she co-founded in 1974. Her career and her experience as a divorcedwoman with three children combinedto intensify her concern for the problems of working women, workingmothers, and working single parents.Because she fit all three of those categories she saw the need for child careas "both an intellectual and an emotional issue." In Chicago in the mid-1960s, Miller established a day-carecenter for Amalgamated workers' children that was described in a federal report as the "Rolls Royce" of child care.What made Miller's program an outstanding model were the quality andrange of its services. Based on a Swedish child care plan, Miller's center hada dentist, pediatrician and psychiatricsocial worker on staff. The progressivenature of the center meant that children were made to feel that they wereat home and not in an institutional environment. Miller says the "carte blanche" attitude that children are alwaysbetter off at home than at a day-carecenter is "ridiculous."Where a child is better off dependsas much on the quality of the home lifeas it does on the quality of the day-carecenter. "Children in a group situationlearn a tremendous amount," she says,pointing out one study that found thatchildren who had been in the Head-start program or who had some kind ofchild care before starting school generally did better academically and socially through elementary school thanchildren who were kept at home untilthey started school.While the growing useof high technology hascreated jobs, womenstill, in general, occupythe lowest-paying ofthose jobs.While Miller is a strong advocate ofday care she is not an indiscriminatingone. She disapproves of day care forprofit, which she says is on the rise inthe U.S., because she believes childcare is too expensive to be done well ona profit basis. Quality child care costsfrom $3,600 to $4,000 a year for onechild, she says. Private programs eitherhave to charge that much, thereby excluding many people who can't affordsuch a steep rate, or they have toscrimp on quality. The latter is one ofthe reasons behind the abuses in childcare, she says. Scandals arise, Millersays, "because the staff is not good."Ideally, she says, child care wouldbe provided on a "non-profit servicebasis, similar to the public school system." She said she believes the availability of such care would benefit morethan the families whose children wereserved. Society in general would benefit because more people would be freedto work to the best of their abilities.Child care is only one concern ofCLUW, which acts as a feminist lobbywithin all trade unions. At its 10th anniversary conference in Chicago in1984 the group reaffirmed its commitment to organize the millions of nonunion working women in the UnitedStates, to encourage women to take active roles in union leadership and politics, and to fight job discrimination.The first of those goals may be thehardest one to achieve. In recent yearsthe number of organized workers inthe U . S .—approximately sevenmillion— has remained constant although the size of the total work forcehas increased to about forty-two million, Miller says. The result is that thepercentage of organized workers hasdecreased. People are not as attuned tothe idea of joining a union in 1985 asthey were in, for example, 1935, whenthe Depression served as a powerfulimpetus for workers to organize."We're working very hard in termsof organization, but it's very difficult. . .We're looking for new ways to reachpeople and tell them what we're allabout," Miller says. Many workers today feel that unions have nothing to offer them. "People come to work todayand work in air-conditioned factories,they have decent wages, and then willsay, 'What do I need a union for?'"Miller says. She doesn't need to thinkabout the answer to their challenge."They need it in terms of job security."Miller once told a reporter that she came into the labor movement withstars in her eyes. The phrase has beenpicked up by other writers and used todescribe her many times. Exactly whoor what put those stars there is something Miller can't say, but she remembers being aware of the concerns ofworking people when she was growingup in Chicago and working in her father's railroad salvage store and hermother's family's dry goods store. Sheis proud that the dry goods store wasone of the first places to sell steel-tipped safety shoes for workmen.Miller's first real exposure to the labor movement came during a summerwhen she was a student in the College.She worked as an assembler for theLeaf Gum Co. in Chicago. Her job description is brief. "I moved gumballsfrom one conveyor to another." But thejob was harder than she thought itwould be. After a day of standing between two machines and repeating thesame motion from 7 a.m. to 4 p.m., "Iknew real physical exhaustion, asopposed to mental exhaustion," sheremembers. That year helped directher towards her future career in laboreducation and organization.Her interest in the welfare of theworking class crystallized at the University, where she met others, including the late Kermit Eby, professor of social sciences, who shared her outlook."We all looked for places to make a contribution" to society, she says. "I lovedthe University of Chicago. Outside ofmy parents it was the most importantinfluence in my life. I loved the stonesin the Social Science building. I lovedwalking across campus." She smiles.She is a long way from the quadrangles, but the intensity of the young reformer remains. After years of work asa director of education and social programs for union members, as an organizer of day-care centers, as a builder ofhousing for union families, she has lostnone of her zest for the battle.Two years as a wrapper at MarshallField's department store in Chicagoand a summer in the student programat the United Auto Workers' CampF.D.R. in Huron, MI, completedher college labor experiences. Afterearning her master's degree in the Division of the Social Sciences, she becameeducation director for the Amalgamated Clothing Workers of America inChicago, training people to become active in their own unions and chapters.Labor education still produces one of her greatest professional satisfactions:the transformation of a passive unionmember into a participant. When is shehappiest in her work? "When I seeunion members— male or female-become activated within their unionand in the larger political process," sheanswers.The labor movement had its heyday in the 1930s, a time when manypeople viewed unionism as perhapsthe only means to the economic survival of the worker. Miller believes andhas said repeatedly that the 1980s willbe for unionism and women what theGreat Depression years were forunionism and men. "It's a revolutionand we're living in the middle of it,"she says. The world has changed andcontinues to change. She points toHanna Gray's appointment as president of the University in 1978. "Thatwouldn't have happened thirty yearsago." The selection of GeraldineFerraro as the 1984 Democratic vice-presidential candidate is another positive sign — for men and for women, shesays. "It's the most exciting thing that'shappened. I think it really electrifiedthe country . . . I give Walter Mondalea lot of credit. I think he had the courage and the vision and it took a certainamount of nerve," she says.Miller is pleased with any progresswomen make in taking their place infields which used to be reserved formale players, but says there is stillmuch to be done. In the corporateworld, for example, "there's beenmovement . . . but certainly not anything great." The ranks of female corporate presidents and chief executiveofficers are still very thin. Rather thandiscouraging Miller, the paucity of female top exectives spurs her on. "I'mthe kind of person who looks at a glassand says it's half-full," but adds, "it's aconstant fight."Revolution, fight, awakening-whatever you want to call it, Miller ishelping to lead and to shape it. "I seethe labor movement as one of the mostimportant vehicles in our society for social change," she says. And unionmembers, whom she describes as "verysincere, dedicated, hard-working people" are clearly those with whom shemost likes to associate. Union membershave a sense of community, commonpurpose, and shared destiny sheprizes. "Unions represent so manymore people," she says, "than just thepeople who pay dues."

Swift DistinguishedService Professor Emeritus in the Department of Education, headed a research team which has conducted afive-year study of some 120 superstars-Olympic swimmers, tennis players,concert pianists, sculptors, world-classmathematicians, and scientists. The researchers were trying to understandhow one gets to the extremes of learning.Their discoveries were surprising — even to the researchers. The potential for talent is more common thanmost people have assumed, and it wassustained encouragement— by parentsand teachers — which brought thegreatest development of talent amongthese high achievers."I've hit on something that seemsto involve parent-child relations that Ihad not anticipated," said Bloom.The team's findings were published this year in a book, DevelopingTalent in Young People (BallantineBooks), which Bloom edited. Bloom'sfindings, important to him for whatthey say about education, also suggestthat a great deal of potential in thiscountry goes unrealized."The notion that if a child has perfect pitch discrimination he will surelybecome a great musician isn't so unlesshe participates in a long process of excellent instruction," said Bloom. "InThe illustrations are from Elements of Phrenology, by George Combe. John AndersonJun., Edinburgh and Simpkin & Marshall,London. 1824. the U.S. we're always looking for 'greatgifts' as the rationalization for providing special lessons and we expect thatonly the most 'gifted' child can aspireto high levels of talent development."For the study approximately twenty subjects were interviewed in each ofsix fields where individual accomplishment could be fairly objectivelymeasured. The concert pianists, for example, were included because theyhad placed as finalists in one of half adozen international piano competitions. With only a few exceptions theinterviewees were younger thanthirty-five. Bloom hoped that thememories of their childhoods were stillvivid and that their parents would beable to provide collaborative stories.All of Bloom's subjects were born andbred in the United States to insure thatwhat was studied was within theframework of the American system."I had expected going into this thatthe talented people would have 'talent'stamped all over their faces from thetime they were very young," saidBloom. "What we found was that theband of people who are capable ofachieving high levels of talent development is actually quite broad. But thefew who achieved it had similar experiences." At the beginning those vital experiences occurred within the individual's family life. Although Bloomfound that the parents of his subjectswere "child oriented," and willing tomake great sacrifices for their families,they did not expect or demand thattheir children become great musiciansor brilliant mathematicians. "I didn'thave any ambitions for him except thathe be successful in whatever he choseto do," said the mother of one mathematician, in a response typical of otherparents in the study. Parents were often hard workers, though, and by theirexample their children came to valuethe work ethic. "I always have to dothings the best I can. My dad is thesame way," said one Olympic swimmer. "It can't just be good enough topass, it has to be right."Bloom, who defines talent as anunusually high level of achievement ina given field, believes that the eventualaccomplishments of only a tenth of thetalented individuals interviewed forhis study could have been predicted bythe end of elementary school. In theentire sample of 120 subjects only a fewhad been picked out as child prodigiesby teachers, parents, or experts. \As children, the subjects of Bloom'sstudy were not given lessons becausethey had demonstrated a marked abilityon the piano or in the swimming pool. Itwas the lessons that came first, and thechild's "small successes and earlyprogress" that prompted his parents toprovide him with more opportunities togrow in a given field. The interests of thefamily determined the field in which thechild was given his first lessons. Whydid a mother give her child piano lessons? "Because I liked music. Because Ifelt the kids needed it." said one mother,echoing the sentiments of many of theother parents.The long and arduous road to thelimits of a field takes from ten to twenty years to travel and is, Bloom found,marked by three distinct stages. Thesethree stages were documented timeand again in each of the six fields theteam studied. The first is characterizedby the child's playful delight in learning, the second by a more disciplinedcommitment, and the third by the individual's total identification with thefield. These stages are not orchestratedby set amounts of time, but representplateaus an individual reaches andmoves beyond on the way to fulfillinghis aspirations. Bloom's researchersare already beginning to uncover thesame stages of learning in other fields,including ballet and poetry."What we keep finding," he said,"is that the first teacher must be almostlike a wonderful mother, nurturing,supporting, encouraging the child andmaking the first learning playful andexciting. After the child has that forseveral years he needs to go to a teacher who emphasizes precision and theunderlying reasons for things. Then,UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO MAGAZINE/FALL 1985EXCEPTIONAL CONDITIONS, NOTEXCEPTIONAL TALENT,PRODUCE HIGH ACHIEVERSThe findings surprised even the researchers,reports education expert Benjamin Bloom.By Brigitta Carlsoneventually, he has to move to a masterteacher who helps him find his ownunique style." It is this long and dedicated learning process that is necessary to develop great talent, saysBloom, not the inevitable emergence ofan early gift. A great deal can divertthis process and Bloom says that aweakness of the study is that it dealsonly with successful subjects, suggesting what leads to the development oftalent, but not what may inhibit it."In our country we say: Is he musically inclined? Does he have an aptitude for music? Then we'll give himmusic lessons," he said. "But in manycountries they're saying all childrenneed music, all children need art, allchildren should read poetry and literature. In this country we parcel out thosewho should and those who shouldn'treceive special instruction." It is the notion that only the child with perfect pitchmay grow up to be the next Mozart thatplagues Bloom. What is tragic to him isthat only that child may be encouragedto study music at all.Developing Talent in Young People,however, is not so much a study of thepath to genius as it is a journey into theways of learning. As such, the studygrows naturally out of Bloom's more than four decades of research on education. Its findings, although fascinating in their own right, are important toBloom for how they may illuminateclassroom learning. "I've been studying education for forty-five years andI've been trying to understand underwhat conditions do students learn welland under what conditions do theylearn poorly," said Bloom, "The talentstudy is an attempt to study the extremes of learning . . . It is not merelya study of 'how do you produce geniusor great talent? ' but ' what are the variables that influence learning under various conditions?'"In 1956 Bloom, together with colleagues at other universities,published the first part of Taxonomy ofEducational Objectives (David McKay,1956-64), a two-volume classificationof learning objectives and testing procedures that sold more than a millioncopies on its way to becoming a biblefor curriculum reform throughout theworld. But it was Stability and Change inHuman Characteristics (J. Wiley, 1964),published eight years later, that provided the framework for much ofBloom's later work. In the latter Bloomsuggested that a child born into thesupportive environment of a "culturally advantaged" home is best preparedto begin the work of elementaryschool. "In short, the culturally advantaged child learns to learn very early,"he wrote. Encouraged by other studieson child development, Bloom began toresearch the ways all young childrencould be taught to learn more effectively. His findings, which inspired preschool programs across the world,were cited in this country as the basisfor beginning the Headstart program. These preschool programs were often quite successful in their own right,but a few years into elementary schooltheir young graduates frequently fellbehind. Bloom, who investigated thisbacksliding, came to the unhappy conclusion that schools often inhibitedtheir students' potential. The ability tolearn was interpreted as a fixed quotient. The best learners were, ironically, given the most support while otherswere left to struggle. Mastery learningis a method of teaching Bloom createdto enable most of the students in aclassroom to reach high levels ofachievement. The basic premise ofmastery learning is that a student mustmaster one learning task before he canbe expected to comprehend and learnthe next. The result of using the method, now employed in classrooms fromelementary to graduate school, is a dra-Continued on page 4919CHICAGO JOURNALB.KENNETH WESTTRUSTEE CHAIRMANB.

Earlier in the month the Chicago Maroonpublished a special issue on divestment and at the College commencement in June a number of graduatingseniors wore red arm bands on thesleeves of their graduation robes toprotest the University's position ondivestment.In a letter to the Chicago Maroon inMay, President Hanna Gray stated theUniversity's position. "Let me say atthe outset that the system of apartheidpracticed in South Africa is totallyreprehensible. It must be condemned,and it must be ended," she wrote."It is the policy of the University'sBoard of Trustees to invest, in the caseof corporations that may do businessin South Africa, only in companiesthat act in accordance with the Sullivan principles," she continued. "TheBoard believes that acting as a responsible shareholder goes hand in handwith its obligations to the University'swell-being."The questions posed by investments in corporations that do businessin South Africa speak to no disagree-UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO MAGAZINE/FALL 1985ment about the goal of seeing apartheid eliminated — for on that there isunanimity. Instead, they speak todifficult judgments, on which deeplycommitted and concerned people mayand do differ, as to the means for itsaccomplishment."Those who argue for total divestiture maintain that any such investments are wrong because no companyshould operate at all in South Africa.This view holds that such involvementis in itself a support to the system ofapartheid and an implication in itsevils, and that divestiture is a means tothe end of doing away with apartheidand to separating the investing institution from any association with it."Another point of view, which theUniversity's trustees have adopted, isthat the role to be played by responsible corporations doing business inSouth Africa is one of pursuing, in theface of apartheid, policies in the workplace diametrically opposed to thesystem by introducing fair employment practices and equal rights fortheir workers. In this way, it is hoped,some improvement of conditions maybe accomplished, with wider potentialeffects for introducing significantsocial change. If investing institutions,acting as shareholders, are to requirethe pursuit of such policies, they mustremain shareholders and continue toexercise influence within the corporation involved. By divesting, the University would take a purely symbolicstep and lose any power for constructive action. Divestiture, from thispoint of view, actually means transfer ofresponsibility to other shareholderswho may well be less concerned.The board's policy is also to measure a company's conformity to theguidelines represented by the Sullivanprinciples, using the evaluations madeby the Investor ResponsibilityResearch Center, an independent not-for-profit institution that conductsregular reviews of performance andanalyzes any stock proxy issues. TheUniversity's treasurer's office is directed to review each issue on a case bycase basis to determine if the company's policies are responsible and inaccord with the Sullivan principles."The Faculty for Divestment inSouth Africa (FDSA) committee is co-coordinated by John Comarof f, as sociate professor of anthropology andsociology, and his wife, JeanComaroff, associate professor in theanthropology department, the Collegeand the Committee on Human Nutrition and Nutritional Biology. Both arewhite South African expatriates.Alumni members of FDSA, created inJune, have expressed their views in aletter to the editor of the Magazine (seeLetters).LIBRARY NAMEDFORKITAGAWAThe library of the Divinity School'sInstitute for the Advanced Study ofReligion has been named the JosephM. Kitagawa Library, in honor of theformer professor and dean of theschool who retired in March. Theannouncement was made after a symposium entitled "Joseph M.

Alma MaterNow Non-sexistA new, non-sexist version of theUniversity's Alma Mater was presentedto incoming freshmen at this year'swelcoming convocation September 22in Rockefeller Memorial Chapel. Atotal of four changes were made in theanthem, written in 1894 by EdwinHerbert Lewis, PhD'94, then a graduate student, who sat down and dashedit off between dinner and dessert, forthe first public performance of theUniversity's Glee Club, of which hewas a member. Lewis took the melodyfrom the University of Rochester'salma mater."We thought the changes wereminimal, but that they corrected someof the most offensive aspects of thesong," said Ellen Turner Harris, AB'70,PhD'76, associate professor and chairman of the music department, whomade the changes along with DonaldLevine, AB'50, AM'54, PhD'57, deanof the College, and Jean SitterlyTreese, AB'66, advisor in the Collegeand director of College orientation."I have always thought it odd andwrong that daughters were omittedfrom this coed university's alma mater," wrote President Hanna Gray, in arecent memo. The University has beencoed since it opened its doors on October 1, 1892. Gray is among those whothink there should be a new song written for the University's Centennial in1991.Here are the first two stanzas (theonly ones changed) in the new versionof Alma Mater, . The old words are inparentheses:Today we gladly sing the praiseOf her whose daughters and whose sons(who owns us as her sons)Now (Our) loyal voices proudly (let us) raise,To (And) bless us with our benisons,Of all fair mothers, fairest she,Most wise of all that wisest be,Most true of all the true, say we,Is our dear Alma Mater.Her mighty learning we would tell,Tho life is something more than lore;She could not love her children (sons so) well,Loved she not truth and honor more.We praise her breadth of charity,Her faith that truth shall make us (men) free.That right shall live eternally,We praise our Alma Mater.21THIRD YEAR OFBENTON FELLOWSA dozen broadcast journalists,chosen as this year's William BentonFellows in Broadcast Journalism, willspend six months on campus studyingpublic policy and examining the issuesof their profession.

Yates, PhB'31, JD'33, uponhis receipt of the Alumni Association's 1985 Alumni Medal. "Ihad no inkling when I was on campusthat I would wind up in Congress asmy life's work. As a matter of fact, running for the House every two years,I'm kind of surprised that it turned outto be my life's work." Yates was one ofseven alumni and ten graduating seniors on whom the Alumni Associationbestowed awards at its annual assembly on June 1, Reunion Day, in the Oriental Institute's Breasted Hall.Yates, a former assistant attorneygeneral in Illinois, turned to politics in1948. "I was trained as a lawyer andpracticed for a while, but I never reallyenjoyed the practice," said Yates."When I returned from service in theNavy in World War II, I looked aroundfor a new way of life and decided Iwanted to go to Congress. And therebyhangs a tale, for in Chicago — politicsbeing what it is— the wish may be father to the thought but it's a long wayfrom the thought to its realization."In 1948 Democrats in the Illinoisninth Congressional District, which ina brief span of eight years had swungfrom Republican to Democrat and backagain, were faced with the "monumental task" of defeating an incumbent Republican. Though Yates askedfor the nomination ("In retrospect, I'mreally surprised by my chutzpah," hetold his audience) the district's wardcommitteemen decided, instead, on acandidate of German descent. As theyear wore on and President HarryTruman's prospects for re-electionseemed to plunge, the German candi-. date grew nervous. When the postmaster of Chicago died unexpectedly thecandidate managed to be appointed inhis place. And with six weeks to goYates agreed to run for the House seat."The result is history," said Yates."Today when young people ask mehow to be elected to political office, Itell them to do as I did: find a ticket on Sidney R. Yateswhich Harry Truman is running forpresident, Adlai Stevenson the elderis running for governor, and PaulDouglas is a candidate for the Senate.With such a ticket, one can be elected."Yates' congressional career was interrupted in 1962 when he ran unsuccessfully for the Senate; the followingyear he was appointed ambassador tothe United Nations on the TrusteeshipCouncil by the late President John F.Kennedy. In 1964 Yates was re-electedto his former seat in the House, a position that he continues to hold today. InCongress he is perhaps best known forhis role as chairman of the Subcommittee for the Department of the Interiorand Related Agencies, which overseesfunding for, among other federal agencies, the Smithsonian Institution andthe National Foundation on the Artsand the Humanities. He is a seniormember of the House AppropriationsCommittee, a member of the ForeignOperations Subcommittee, the Commission on Security and Cooperationin Europe, also known as the Helsinki Commission, and a congressional representative to the U.S. HolocaustMemorial Council.In accepting the Alumni Medal,Yates credited the University for hispolitical longevity. "The professors,the students, the activities, the athleticteams, the classes, the clash of ideas—the total ambience— fashioned my philosophy and my vision of America in away that found favor in the politicalarena," he said. "I came out of the University a liberal Democrat and I remainone today. Some of my Democraticbrethren are looking for a more attractive ship to board, but they haven'tfound any yet. As for me, I like the shipI'm on."Charles Darwin Andersen,PhB'34, AM'35, who has ardently promoted the University in the Washington, D.C.area for more than forty years, receivedthe Alumni Service Citation. In hiswork for the Alumni Schools Committee Andersen has been responsible forliterally hundreds of high school students applying to the University.Andersen became co-chairman of theAlumni Association Schools Committee in 1972 and a year later was electedto the Alumni Cabinet. He is a formersecond vice-president of the University of Chicago Club in the Washington,D.C. area and a member of the Washington area alumni board. He served aschairman of the Alumni AssociationSchools Committee from 1973 to 1984,and is credited with organizing andmaintaining one of the strongest suchgroups in the country.Professional AchievementCitations were bestowed onWillie D.

She has alsocollected a vast amount of informationon the possible nature of the earlyearth. She has worked with the National Academy of Sciences and served onseveral NASA advisory committees,the Space Science Board, and NASA'sAdvisory Council. Now a professor ofbiology at Boston University, Dr.Margulis has also taught at BrandeisUniversity, Scripps Institute ofOceanography, and the CaliforniaInstitute of Technology.

Dr. Wetherill was a staff member at the department of terrestrialmagnetism of the Carnegie Institutionin Washington, D.C. before joining theUniversity of California at Los Angelesas a professor of geophysics and geology. In 1975 he returned to the CarnegieInstitution as director of the department of terrestrial magnetism. Early inhis career Dr. Wetherill worked on thedevelopment of precise geologicalclocks. Later he became the outstanding expert on the processes by whichsolar system matter coalesced to formplanetesimals (small celestial bodies)and eventually planets. Dr. Wetherill isalso considered a leading authority onthe orbits of meteorites in space andtheir diffusion throughout the solarsystem. He is former president of theMeteoritical Society, the GeochemicalSociety, and the International Association of Geochemistry and Cosmochem-istry.

Merriam, AM '40, presenteda check to the University for the establishment of the Emmett Dedmon Visit ing Professorship of Public Affairs, tohonor the memory of their late friend.Dedmon, AB'39, served as nationalchairman of the Alumni Fund for nearly twenty years, until his death in 1983.He had been a University Trustee since1946, and in 1983 he was awarded theUniversity's first Alumni Service Medal. "Those of us who attended the University," Dedmon said then, "almostinvariably came away with two new elements in our lives. They are: First, asense of the importance of the intellect and training in the discipline of thatintellect. Secondly, the very atmosphere of this place breathes into you anexcitement over ideas." Since these elements "remain with us throughoutlife," he said, "what could be more appropriate than that throughout life weas alumni maintain our affection, interest, and support for the University."After Dedmon's death later that yearfriends began to gather the funds to establish a memorial to the former vice-president and editorial director of theChicago Sun-Times and the Chicago DailyNews. Their presentation on June 1 wasthe first step in their plan to endow afull professorship in honor of Dedmon.The chair will be associated with theCommittee on Public Policy Studies, inmemory of Dedmon's devotion to public affairs.At the ceremony ten graduatingseniors were presented withHowell Murray Awards fortheir extracurricular activitieson campus: Michael Gordon Beyer;Tracey Jane Button; Christina Gomez;Newton Phillip Hall; Frederick A.

S BLOOMContinued from page 19matic increase in the number of students who do well.It is with this history of exploringwhat he has called the "limits of learning" that Bloom approached his studyof the country's extraordinary achievers.Developing Talent in Young People, already in its third printing, has generated public interest more quickly thanany of Bloom's previous groundbreaking work. Reviews and articlesabout the book have been published bythe New York Times, the Washington Post,Reader's Digest, the Los Angeles Times, andthe Associated Press. "News about thebook was spread very, very rapidlythroughout the world," said Bloom. "Itis likely to be more widely read than myother books because it speaks to everyfamily. Everyone has some notion ofsomebody in his or her family who, given the right conditions, could becomeunusual or special."Nevertheless, Bloom is reluctant togive parents advice on how to nurturetheir child's talent development. Inpart, that's because the subjects of hisstudy were children in the early 1950swhen, unlike today, almost all theirmothers were able to stay home and devote a great deal of time to encouragingtheir very young children. "I'm not trying to say that the mother must stayhome," he said. "There must be lovingand nuturing caretakers if we're still togive children a good start on talent development." The findings of the studyare not easily transplanted into the1980s because the conditions for raisingchildren are so changed. "I'm sure thatwe will continue to produce great violinists, pianists, and swimmers," Bloomsaid, "but maybe we'll have to createvery different child-care conditionsfrom what we saw in this study." To onewould-be parent Bloom did offer whathe sees as the most important elementfor a child's well-being: "Love, that's allyou need," he said, with a smile.With that as groundwork a child cantake root and flourish. "What you haveis the home preparing the ground . . .and then the succession of teachers thatmakes such a great difference," he says."We were looking for exceptional kidsand what we found were exceptionalconditions." H41LETTERSContinued from inside front coverUNWILLING TO "READWITHOUT JUDGING"Editor:I read Davidson Loehr's article "To CareWithout Judging" in the Spring, 1985, issuewith careful attention to its arguments andthesis, noticing the articulateness of the author and the emotional effectiveness of theauthor's appeal for compassion. I was nevertheless unwilling to "read without judging." I was all the less ready to suspend mycritical faculties because the appeal for compassion was formulated in terms and autobiographical revelations that invoked emotions all the more forcefully because of therestraint governing the narration.I have some questions that I need tohave answered satisfactorily before I couldaccede to the article's appeal. Could any soldier in any war for any cause, including thestorm troopers under Hitler, be held accountable for his actions if the viewpoint ofDavidson Loehr were extended to them individually or collectively (to any of them byany reasonable projection of the decisionsmade by them leading to their actions)? Orare Vietnam War veterans the only ones towhom his charity is to be extended? If thedispensation is only to include VietnamWar veterans, why? Indeed, if the viewpoint of Davidson Loehr in this article isuniversally extended could any individualbe held accountable for any of his deeds under any circumstances?Without a satisfactory set of answers tothe questions raised, it seems to me that ifLoehr's views are accepted then the greatredeeming feature of the Vietnam War isconsiderably weakened. That feature is thatAmericans very widely are of the opinionthat that war was lost and that the returningmilitary personnel were involved in thatloss. For a broad section of the Americanpopulation this is a novel attitude to have:to believe that any war America engaged inwas a failure and that America's militarypersonnel were not heroes . . .I found it interesting that Loehr doesnot mention the young Americans whoevaded military service in Vietnam, oftenwith considerable risks to their present andfuture safety. He refers to his own chains:his decision to get closer to combat so thatin future years he would not feel as if he hadevaded danger to his person and had notbeen a participant in the conflict that waslooming so large for Americans, especiallythose of his generation. When I read the account I could not keep out of my consciousness that every pacifist who avoided military service must have had a similar chairoswith parallel realizations that they musthenceforth live with the fact that they had not been a participant or put their bodies injeopardy (unless they became ambulancedrivers or medical aides). But such materialis peripheral to the key questions the articleimpinges upon.Gerald Udell, PhD'66North Canton, OHBRAVO FOR JANOWITZEditor:Congratulations on including MorrisJanowitz's scholarly and constructive feature in your Summer, 1985, issue. It is mostrefreshing to hear a man of his stature speakout on citizen responsibilities, when wehear too often only of citizen "rights". Myfaith in the University is strengthened tosee you feature an article of this nature.John D. McGill, Jr., AM'42Tupelo, MSLOVE THE EARTH, NOTTHE NATIONEditor:Morris Janowitz's "The Good Citizen—A Threatened Species" most disappointedly missed the essence of his subject.First, the University should lead in programs to encourage the only meaningfulcitizenship: love of the Earth before anynarrow nationalism. Second, Janowitz'sideas on "national service" are most unreal. One would suspect that he has neverhad any experience as a participant himselfin volunteering for either military or other"youth" activities.At the rate Janowitz is going he will onlycontinue the useless jingoism of the pastwith war and destruction.William M. Wilderson, AB'40Florida City, FLEditor's note: Second Lieutenant MorrisJanowitz served in the Army of the United Statesfrom 1943 to 1946. He was awarded the PurpleHeart for wounds received in combat.ON EXTENDINGCIVIL RIGHTSEditor:I share Morris Janowitz' concern fordeveloping a greater "civic consciousness"(Magazine, Summer, 1985), but I am disturbed that he attributes the decline of patriotism to "fifty years of expansion in thesubstance and procedure of citizen rightswhile clarification of citizen obligations andtheir implementation have lagged extensively." I think that setting up citizen rightsas the converse and, perhaps, the enemy ofcitizen obligations is both erroneous and,potentially, dangerous. The extension of civil rights to variousclasses of Americans over the last fiftyyears (actually, mostly during only the last25 to 30 years) has increased the stake ofthose Americans in the civic polity— i.e.,they now have far more reason to be patriotic. I do not believe that contemporaryAmericans are overeducated as to theirrights. Indeed, deepening the appreciationof Americans for the rights of all their fellowcitizens is perhaps the best way to enhancethe sense of civic obligation. After all, theultimate obligation of citizens of a democratic republic is to do that which securesand enhances the rights of themselves andtheir fellow citizens.Jonathan K. Baum, JD'82Evanston, ILJANOWITZ'S ARGUMENTIS "REPUGNANT"Editor:While I am not opposed in principal tothe concept of a universal youth service, Ifind Morris Janowitz's conception of it inthe Summer, 1985, Magazine utterly repugnant. Stripped to its essentials, his argument proposes that economic coercion(such as denial of college aid) should beused to force a problematic group (middle-class youth) into an indentured servitude at"subsistence level" to do good works (i.e.,to labor on those national ills which adultsociety deplores but is unwilling to expendanything other than lip service to solve) andlearn "civic consciousness" (i.e., politicalindoctrination). Those "few" youth whomight arise "in blind opposition" againstsuch an indentured servitude are, Sovietstyle, to be declared "deviant" or "criminal-like."Janowitz's underlying political motivations are easy to see. He suggests that in essence, mere exposure to middle class youthcan teach the lower orders "morality" andredeem them from the shif tlessness whichimprisons them in poverty. Such a nationalservice in its very existence would thus distract attention from the truly difficult question: does society have any economic placesavailable for "poverty youth" even if theysuddenly did manage to assimilate sacredmiddle-class mores? I think not, and believe that this is a central economic questionof our time. But even if this is not the case,another question remains: Can untrainedsuburban youths offer anything other thangood intentions? . . .Today, society is steadfastly unwillingto do anything serious about those thingsJanowitz cites as appropriate to the moralvenue of youth: the environment, health,the causes of poverty, or the conditions ofi1the elderly. Further, middle-class womenare proving unconveniently restive in theirold roles as social housekeepers. Now theywant to be paid for their services, for quiterightly they sense that what our society isunwilling to pay for, it does not (whateverthe rhetoric) truly value. Universal youthservice is one means by which society canonce more show its concern (but not itsmoney) by relegating social responsibilityto the unpaid and the marginal, youthsDEATHSFACULTYWalter Johnson, AM'38, PhD'41, professor and former chairman (1950-1961) inthe Department of History and author ofseveral books on American history, died inJune.
