Despres lauds Scala workVol. 72 — No. 28 University of Chicago, Friday, Jan. 24, 1964New library to be 2nd largestby Steve EgeIn about five years. TJC stu¬dents may be getting theirbooks from an electronic com¬puter.That is what Herman H. Fussier,director of UC’s library system,speculates. In a recent interviewwith the Maroon, Fussier mentionedthe possibility of using computers tolocate books for library' users amongother, more concrete plants to ex¬pand. unify, and improve the li¬brary's facilities to handle an esti¬mated five million volumes.By 1969 Fussier thinks that newgeneral and science libraries shouldlx* completed. The new general li¬brary building would concentrate oninformation concerning the social sci¬ences ;uid the humanities on thegraduate level. It would housesome 2.9 million volumes, slightlylarger than the present entire Uni¬versity collection of 2.3 million vol¬umes. Hopefully around 40 to 60per cent of graduate students in thesocial sciences and humanities couldbe seated in the building.The new science library is con¬ceived of as a smaller unit than thenew general library. It would con¬tain seven to nine hundred thousandvolumes and seat six to eight hun¬dred persons. Fussier said that thisnew library is not too far along inplanning, bait that the general ideasare agreed upon.News for undergradsAlso in the works are severalOther library changes aimed at im¬proving library service. Harper andadjacent buildings will eventually beconverted into an undergraduategeneral reading area. Easy accesswould be provided to from 30,060 to50,000 volumes related to the generaleducation program. The readingrooms would have space for six toeight hundred students.In addition, most departmental li¬braries will be brought together,which will be necessary, according toFussier, because of the cross-disci¬plinary nature of teaching and re¬search.The new library system will even¬tually provide students and facultywith access to a total of five millionvolumes, which would make the Uni¬versity of Chicago’s library systemthe second largest university libraryin the country, based on presentfigures. First place is held by Har¬vard University.Harper's coupThe proposed changes in the li¬brary system represent an attempt¬ed solution to problems that haveevolved since the founding of theUniversity library in 1892. At thattime, the university had a little lessthan 130,000 volumes.The rapid growth of the library inits early days can in part be attrib¬uted to President William RaineyHarper’s energy and founder JohnD. Rockefeller’s money. Harper wasan enthusiastic supporter of the li¬brary system. His first major coupwas to persuade the board of trus¬tees to buy the entire contents of aBerlin bookstore—nearly half a mil¬lion volumes. If all the books hadbeen delivered, UC would have hadthe second or third largest libraryin the country almost over-night.Many of the departmental librarieshave spent a good portion of theirlives hopping from one building toanother. Before 1899, there was nolibrary building at all. Books werestored on the second floor or Cobb,some still in their shipping cartes.Professors were pictured then aspeering about in dark, dusty cornerslooking at crate labels in the hope ofchancing upon some tattered manu¬script they were looking for. Thisrather haphazard method has yield¬ed to a systemization and classifi¬cation of the University’s holdings.Harper's conceptionHarper originally conceived ofa library system as one general li¬ brary, to be used by undergraduates,and several departmental libraries,for the exclusive use of graduatestudents and faculty.The idea behind this planning hasaltered with the growth in man’sknowledge, according to Fussier. Atthe turn of the century, he said, themajor areas of study were thoughtto be pretty well defined and classi¬fied. Each discipline had its ownparticular and exclusive area ofstudy. Thus, it was a logical out¬come of this concept that each de¬partment in the University haveits own library. “But this compart -mented concept of knowledge hasbeen collapsing,’’ Fussier said, “andwith this collapse, the structure ofthe library has had to change.”Now, however, the dusty shippingcrates from Berlin in Harper’s dayhave been replaced by an increasing¬ly cumbersome system of classifi¬cation: the Library of Congress sys¬tem. Athough well conceived andcarefully executed, the system hasthe defect of being based upon theextent of man’s knowledge at thetime of its inception. In physics,for example, the atom as a classifi¬cation received only one number.Still another fault of the systemwas its assumption that most knowl¬edge was to be found in books. “In¬creasingly, however,” Fussier com¬mented, “information is found inperiodicals. I would estimate thathalf of all the volumes in the libraryare periodicals. This trend is in¬creasing.”Inadequacies of classification inphysics, for example, necessitaterelatively arbitrary and hence un¬uniform decisions. In the opinion ofFussier, more subtle and less arbi¬trary systems of classification arerequired to adequately classify theflood of information which reachesthe library daily.This flood is considerable. On atypical day in 1954, for instance,the library received neary 100 book-dealers’ catalogs and over 70 pub¬lishers’ announcements from whichto choose books. From Peking camethe Catalog of Forthcoming Book inChinese, from which a few bookswere chosen and purchased throughUC’s agent in Hongkong. All told, the library system pro¬cessed 332 items on that day in ac¬quisitions. Ol these 116 were recom¬mended for purchase. On that sameday, 219 new books were receivedfor introduction into the library.In the past year UC acquired anet of nearly 61,000 new books. Eachof these books had eventually to beclassified. To receive, make, pull,file, or correct around 2,000 catalogcards a day is not. unusual.UC students are voracious readers.Stanley E. Gwynn, assistant directorfor Readers’ Services, told theMaroon that the per capita use ofbooks per year is 121 books, threetimes the average of twenty otheruniversities.The weeding problemThe drop of UC’s rank in numberof volumes from fourth in 1942 toninth in 1963 represents, accordingto University sources, increasedscrutiny over acquistion, the declinein monetary resources available tothe library, and the transfer or dis¬card of materials classified as “less-likely-to-be-used.” Most books with¬drawn from shelves are transferedto the Midwest Inter-Library Center.This “weeding” process by whichthe university scrutinizes its acquisi¬tions is carried out largely by biblio¬graphers in several fields. WhenHarper was president, this activitywas done by faculty members al¬most exclusively but increased pres¬sures on the faculty, the increasedcomplexity involved in the selectionof books and the consequent in¬creased amount of time needed tomake selections has made facultyparticipation in the “weeding” pro¬cess decline over the last few years.“However,” Fussier added, “wealways welcome suggestions fromboth faculty and students. Moreover,we have always received help inselection from faculty when weasked for it.”With the increased amount ofclassification and the intense use ofthe library made by UC studentsand faculty, Fussler’s speculationabout computer participation in li¬brary functions shows signs of be¬coming a reality. Alderman Leon Despres, incommenting to the Maroon onFlorence S c a 1 a ’ s campaign,thought that there were anumber of similarities to the FifthWard elections of 30 years ago. In1935 the Democratic organization wasdominant here and in that year thefirst serious liberal challenge wasorganized in the aldermanic race, inwhich Joseph Artmann ran againstthe incumbent Democrat.Supported by an IVI type organiza¬tion, Artmann was defeated, but thegroup gained valuable experience inorganization, training, and back¬ground for the future. Two yearslater, Walter Johnson ran and wasalso defeated, but in the meantimethe group had grown in strength andactually won a majority in severalprecincts. Thus, they had some suc¬cess behind them when in 1939 PaulDouglas was successfully electedalderman with liberal support and or¬ganization.In a similar way, according toAlderman Despres, Mrs. Scala ismaking inroads against the FirstWard Democratic Organization. Thisshows up in the “intemperate re¬marks made by Mr. Parrillo after hisvictory, for he was definitely shakenby the outcome. Anything less thena ten to one plurality is consideredpoor by machine standards and hewon by only a 2Vz to 1 edge.”Considering that he had behind hima force of “700 mercenaries,” 500 ofwhom were government patronageworkers and 200 of whom were inprivate business but owed their jobsto the machine, the significance ofMrs. Scala’s vote cannot be under¬estimated as a basis for the future.Despres described how in 1954 aliberal group ran against AldermanMarzullo in the 25th ward and, just by carrying one precinct, so be¬wildered the alderman that to thisday he still talks about it.Alderman Despres, however, feltthat there were also a number of dif¬ferences apparent between the com-parible First and Fifth ward situa¬tions. The most obvious was thepresence of UC in the Fifth, whichtends to draw independent liberalpeople to the area. This type of per¬son will “give permanent strength tosuch organizations as IVI and enter¬prises like the Co-op food market.”There is nothing like this in theFirst Ward. “The change which iscoming there will be based on thegreat Negro discontent with the treat¬ment they have been getting fromthe machine,” Aldreman Despres be¬lieved.The building of the University ofIllinois there will not greatly alter thesituation for the University willprobably have an influence in thecommunity similar to that of IIT inthe Second Ward. “The effect willnot be enough to overcome the mainopposition of the patronage ma¬chine.” Johnny D'Archo, the FirstWard Democratic committeeman iscredited with telling a newsman onWednesday that the U of I will bringin 2000 votes that they cannot con¬trol.Asked to comment on the retire¬ment of the Illinois Secretary of State,Charles Carpentier,. from the guber¬natorial race due to a heart attack,the alderman declared that “asidefrom politics, it was a great personaltragedy, for Carpentier was at theheight of his power and influence.”But tile resignation might prove to bea positive development in that theSecretary of State had very reaction¬ary social views and this has had atragic effect on the state.”Percy to speak tomorrowCharles H. Percy, who hasbeen projected into a leadingposition for the Illinois Repub¬lican gubernatorial nomina¬tion, will speak and answer ques¬tions at 3:00 p.m. tomorrow in IdaNoyes Hall. The meeting, sponsoredby the UC Young Republicans, isopen to all who are interested.Percy, UC alumnus and Trusteeand Chairman of the Board of Bell& Howell, has become a front run¬ner as a result of Secretary of StateCharles F. Carpentier’s withdrawalfrom the hotly contested race. Car¬pentier who is 68 suffered a coronarylast weekend and will be unable tocarry on any political activity forat least four months.The pro-Carpentier forces, sudden¬ly left without a candidate, had at¬tempted to persuade Cook County Sheriff Richard B. Ogilvie to enterthe race after State Treasurer Wil¬liam Scott refused. Ogilvie consid¬ered the offer but decided that hehad to fulfill his “commitment” tothe citizens of Cook County by com¬pleting his term as Sheriff andhelping to rebuild the GOP in CookCounty.Besides Percy, Hayes Robertson.GOP Cook County Chairman, is leftin the race for Governor. Robertsonhad been generally considered asrunning a poor third before Carpen¬tier withdrew and his prospects havenot risen greatly. His major cam¬paign proposal is to nominate BarryGoldwater for the Presidency and, inSpringfield last Saturday, he indi¬cated that he “would do anythingshort of murder” to achieve thatend.Adler explains 'respectable' philosophyby Rick Pollack“Philosophy must meetthree conditions to be ac¬cepted as an intellectually re¬spected vocation,” said Morti¬mer J. Adler, director of the Institutefor Philosophical Research, before astanding room only audience in theLaw School Auditorium Tuesdaynight.Adler began a series of six lectureswhich will consider “The Conditionand Conditions of Philosophy.” Tues¬days lecture was an introduction tothe subject of the series, entitled “IsPhilosophy Respectable?”The three conditions which philoso¬phy must meet, said Adler, are 1)that philosophy must be able to at¬tract young men as an intellectualcareer, on the basis of its being asgood as most other professions orbetter than some; second, philosophymust be considered essential to liber¬al learning, for though “it can trulybe said that philosophy is a specialvocation for some, it can be saidthat every man should philosophize.”Thus philosophy is everybody’s busi¬ness; and third, if philosophy is any¬thing at all, it is the bulwark of hu¬manism, and it should be a har-monizer of humanistic thought withscience and technology.If these three conditions are met,then the answer to the title “Is Phi¬losophy Respectable?” would be yes.Historically, from the ancients tothe seventeenth century philosophers,philosophers never doubted their re¬spectability. According to Adler, “The trouble began with Descartes,as did all modern troubles. Modernphilosophers, deriving their intellec¬tual heritage from Locke, Hume,Berkeley, and Descartes, exhibit acommon anxiety about the dangersof the blind alleys of philosophy, andare continually reassessing them¬selves and the respectability of theirprofession.Adler then stipulated several con¬ditions which he said all intellectuallyrespectable professions must meet.The conditions are the same for alldisciplines, but philosophy satisfiesthem in different ways than scienceor history; thus these conditions mustnot be misconstrued as an attemptto make philosophy respectable byequating it with science.These conditions are five in num¬ber;1) To be respectable as a modeof enquiry, Philosophy must be abranch of knowledge. Knowledge isnot used here in the sense of theGreek work “episteme” which im¬plies certainty and finality. In mod¬ern times it is conceded that nodiscipline, not even mathematics,lives up to this ideal of providingcertain and final knowledge.Knowledge here is used in the senseof the Greek word “doxy," whichimplies strong opinion controlled bycritical discussion. Now that “epis¬teme” is considered an illusory idea,philosophy should not claim to beanything more than “doxy.”2) “Philosophy must be subject tojudgment according to appropriatestandards of relative truth.” Philoso¬ phies may be judged against criteriaof aesthetics, utility, and degrees oftruth. Other measures of the worthof respective philosophies are: thebetter philosophy is more free frominternal and theoretical inconsisten¬cies, the better philosophy is morecomprehensible.3) “Philosophy must have a publiccharacter; it must be communi¬cable.” Philosophy assumes a publiccharacter if participants in philoso¬phical discussions could answer ques¬tions common to them all, ratherthan merely construct privatelymeaningful systems.Public character is assumed if thequestions may be attacked piece¬meal; also if the philosophical par¬ticipants may disagree and their dis¬agreements are adjudicable. A finalcharacter necessary to the assump¬tion of public character is that co¬operation of various participants inanswering questions can providemore adequate solutions than anysingle participant.4) “Philosophy must have a domainof its own and be master of it.”Complete independence of any disci¬pline is impossible, but philosophymust have partial autonomy to satis¬fy these conditions of respectability.Philosophy must be able to pose itsown questions and answer them with¬out reference to what is knownthrough other disciplines.There are two basic types of phi¬losophical questions. One is the purequestion which is of concern to phi¬losophy only. The other is the mixedquestion, one which employs philoso¬ phy in the service of another disci¬pline. The ability to answer mixedquestions, and the manner in whichthis is done, depends entirely on theway in which the pure questions areanswered.5) “Philosophy must be able toanswer questions about what is orhappens in this world.” It must notbe merely a knowledge of the con¬cepts with which we formulate otherknowledge.This involves questions of first andsecond order knowledge, and therelation of philosophy to each. Firstorder knowledge, knowledge of whatis or happens, is denied as a validpart of philosophy by the linguists,analysts, and positivists, followingthe lead of A. J. Avre. This lattergroup emphasizes knowledge ofknowledge. Adler, on the other hand,believes that philosophy must de¬velop first order knowledge and notmerely add clarification of otherknowledge.The six lectures are being spon¬sored jointly by the EncyclopediaBritannica (EB) and UC, whichhave long been associated. Both areleading advocates of the ideas ofgeneral education, and Adler wasco-founder of the first of the GreatBooks courses, at Columbia Univer¬sity in 1930.The lectures were first conceivedat a meeting of the Board of Editorsof the EB, ot which both Adler andRichard McKeon, Charles F. GreyDistinguished Service Professor, de¬partment of Philosophy and ClassicalLanguages and Literature are mem¬bers.1EDITORIALDifficult choice confronts rushees Calendar of eventsThat time is here again.This weekend, after havingfound scads of pesky littlenotices in their mailboxes,first-year men will visit thenine fraternities on campus inan attempt to decide whetherfraternities are worth joiningand, if they are, which onebest meets tliir personal pref¬erences.We do not expect our opin¬ions to be the deciding factorin the “Should I or shouldn’tI?” question that will con¬front rushees. We merely urgethose first-year and transfermen who have not completelyruled out the possibility ofjoining fraternities to make anattempt to learn both sides ofthe story; namely, what a par¬ticular fraternity has to offerand what it doesn't have tooffer.The problem, however, isthat if fraternities are to ex¬ist, the hallowed ceremony ofrushing must exist. The ideaof subjecting oneself to an in¬volved ceremony, at the endof which a supreme council ofjudges decides upon one’sfate, seems a little out of pro¬portion to the benefits re¬ceived.It should be pointed out,however, that UC frats are atrifle less self-conscious aboutthe whole thing than arethose on a number of othercampuses.One has only to visit a fra¬ternity at another campus toobserve the difference.

In thepledge period itself, hazing isminimal, and chores are sel¬dom more than answering thephone.Happily, UC fraternities, byand large, are aware thattheir self-importance is not sogreat that it can supersedeacademic and personal con¬cerns.Although rush smokers willnot in every case afford therushee a complete, accuratepicture of the fraternity,those at UC, when comparedto those at other schools, arerelatively free of meaningless,pompous ceremony, and an in¬flated sense of their own im¬portance. Smokers here shouldconvey at least reasonablywell then the indisputable ad¬vantages that some UC fra¬ternities have to offer: acheap place to live, a guaran¬teed social life (in some fra¬ ternities), and the comfort ofliving with those with whomone wants to live. (This isoften achieved more or lessby chance: the rushee doesnot have time to determinefor sure whether he wants tolive with a given group offraternity men).But the prospective mem¬ber must weigh all these ad¬vantages against what weconsider the one overridingdisadvantage: the necessitythat fraternity members prac¬tice social exclusion by inclu¬sion. For us, such a practiceis totally irrational and ne¬gates all the fraternity sys¬tem’s good points. The choiceis a difficult one and an indi¬vidual one, but we may all bethankful that it is not furthercomplicated by exaggeratedand basically ridiculous rush¬ing procedures. In this regard,UC rushees can and shouldcount their blessings.Intramural reviewAs the second week of IntramuralBasketball ends, the league stand¬ings show Henderson North andTliompson North, college house blueteams, leading while Flint I andVincent lead the college house redleague.

Expectations havebeen very high, and I, for one, wasnot disappointed when I had the op¬portunity to see the film the otherday. Vem Zimmerman, Gerry Tema-ner. Gordon Quinn and the othermembers of their crew have done adistinguished job of filmmaking un¬der severe technical and financialrestrictions. I foimd “The College”continually engrossing both in its in¬terpretation of its subject and as anexample of highly imaginative film¬ing and editing.The University of Chicago Collegewhich unravelled itself before myeyes from tile traditional opening se¬quences of Rockefeller Chapel (ex¬citingly shot from the back of adrunken camel) to the final Socratic dialogue between two thoroughly non-academic types had a distinctivestamp which, refreshingly, did notexactly fit any of the familiar fixedstereotypes. This was not the Collegeas decadent progeny of the goldenage of you know what; it was cer¬tainly not the College which the PublicRelations office has tried so hard tocultivate. The Doc Films College wasnot a community of scholars, of poli¬tical activists, of budding NobelPrize winners or of bearded beats,though in a way it reflected the pres¬ence or at least the potentiality ofall of these. Indeed, one criticismwhich will frequently be made ofthe film is that it succeeds in evadingthese stereotypes all too well: that itsinterpretation is too diffuse, too idio¬syncratic to be a significant portrayalof the institution we know.This will not, in my opinion, be awholly fair criticism. It is not easyFree Lecture onCHRISTIAN SCIENCE"GOD OMNIPOTENT MAKES MAN TRIUMPHANT"byNOEL D.

One of the ways ofgiving shape to such a portrait isto organize it around central institu¬tional aims — such as the trainingof scholars and scientists. Another isthe nauseating fiction of the “aver¬age” student, used with such dismaleffect in the typical recruting film.Doc Films’ scenarist and directorshappily avoided both of these devices.(Not without occasional parody ofthe PR style College recruiting film“A Share in Greatness.”)Instead, in the tradition of Rob¬ert Flaherty, they spent about a yearin close contact with the natives,filming many aspects of their di¬verse ways of life and exotic rituals.In editing and organizing this mate¬rial they did no# follow the structureof the ritual year, at least as far asI was able to detect. A subtle asso¬ciative principle of organizationseemed to be operating. The filmworked out from activities conven¬tionally associated with the College —classroom discussions, library andresearch facilities, student and facultyparties — into images of the indi¬vidual and historical context of theseactivities, showing both partial por¬traits of students and an extremelyeffective historical panorama of StaggField bringing together old newsreelmovies of real Chicago Football, thepresent-day Stagg Field, and thewell-known scientific activity whichonce occupied that site, in strikingjuxtaposition. Each viewer will havehis own reaction to the interpretationsgiven to specific activities. As an in¬voluntary actor in one or two of thesequences I have already filed suitagainst Mr. Temaner. However, Ithink it cannot be denied that whetheror not one agrees with the selectionof material or with the emphasisgiven to particular activities. Thepresentation is generally both vividand powerful.In many respects, the image ofThe College which emerges from theprocess of selection and organizationis rather similar to that which wesaw in the excellent Cap and Gown produced last year. It is that of aninstitution perhaps more characterizedby its diversity, its variety, and thealmost bizarre quality of the con¬trast in attitudes and activities wliichit shelters, than by any single uni¬fying force. Yet there is a centralmotif in the peculiar intensity andseriousness of its denizens who seemto follow their pursuits, whether aca¬demic or athletic, creative or recrea-THE COLLEGE, a featurelength documentary aboutthe U of C made by theDocumentary Film Group'sProduction Unit as an inde¬pendent project, will haveits world premier Thursday,January 30, at 8:30 inMandel Hall. $1.00 admis¬sion will be charged to helpcover production cost.tive, intellectual or physical, seriousor comic, with a quiet but passionateconcentration, a kind of ultimatefunky soulfulness. This image maywell cause a certain raising of ques¬tions and eyebrows; it does lay a dis¬proportionate emphasis on the bizarre,the marginal, and the non-academic.However, I cannot say that I had iteither unrecognizable or unattractive.Technically, nobody should be sur¬prised to discover that “The College”shows signs of a variety of influences:a touch of Leacock and Mitchell here,of Resnais and Fellini there. Only oc¬casionally do these borrowings pro¬trude, however. On the whole theyhave been imaginatively assimilatedto each other to the overall purposeof the picture. The basic method ofpresentation was an excellent choice.Instead of a narrator, the film usesthe actual sound of the filmed se¬quences interspersed with separatelytailed comment, sometimes by thosewho were filmed, sometimes by othermembers of the University. At onepoint this device was used with astriking result to enable two studentsboth to speak for themselves and tocomment on each other.Without the continuity of a narratorthe filmmakers had to rely on othermeans to establish sequences and make transitions. For this purposethey used the associative techniqueswhich contemporary literature andfilms have made so familiar, as wellas a variety of other devices. One,which struck me as particularly ef¬fective, was the use of a bicycle be¬ing ridden from place to place onthe campus. This bicycle ran like aleitmotif tiirough the film, effectivelyenchancing the sense of movementand excitement which “The College”evokes.Whether or not one reacts as en¬thusiastically as I did to the tech¬nique and content of Doc Films’version of “The College,” there willbe moments delightful and memor¬able for anyone who knows the sub¬ject. I will long cherish such se¬quences as: one of my colleaguesleaning back and stifling a yawn ashe concentrates? on a student’s re¬sponse to one of his Socratic queries;some brilliant shots of a primitivereligious ceremony which I was latertold is known locally as a twist party;a wonderful sequence showing a stu¬dent rolling a trailer into the parkinglot at Pierce, pushing into a parkingplace, opening it up and revealing— a telescope; and some excitingfilms of University buildings one ofwhich succeeds in making RockefellerChapel look as mysterious and exoticas the chateau in “Last Year atMarienbad.” Messrs. Zimmerman,Temaner, Quinn et. al. are to becommended for an excellent produc¬tion. I urge you not to miss “TheCollege.”John CoweltiMr. Cawefti Is assistant professorof humanities and chairman of Hu¬manities 111-12-13.Miss UC entries dueFebruary 3 is the deadline for en¬tering the annual Miss University ofChicago contest.

They receive the past, cher¬ish it, and pass on as much asthey’re able to others who will ac¬cept it,” according to Mike Hall,vice-president of the Folklore So¬ciety.Performers at the evening con¬certs include:Doc WatsonDoc Watson, blind from birth, be- 7he Lilly Brothers& Don StoverThe Lilly Brothers & Don Stoverplay their own brand of bluegrassmusic, a fairly recent developmentof string band music, characterizedby rapid tempo and exciting virtuosi¬ty on the traditional folk instru¬ments. Don Stover has been afriend of the Lilly Brothers sincechildhood and is recognized as beingone of the best bluegrass banjopickers.Larry OlderLarry Older of Middle Grove, NewYork, performs a wide variety ofmaterial including lumberjack songs,old Anglo-American ballads andmany traditional American folksongs.

Headdressed himself with sincerity andwith remarkable insight — considering hisbrief acquaintance with the university andits ways — to a problem receiving less andless attention as time goes by. Although hemay come to alter his choice oi alternativesto the present program, and despite the factthat there are some serious contradictionsin the details of his argument, his funda¬mental objections to the present system aretelling. His reasoning is not altogether sound,but his instinct is true.He says the present system is built on thefallacy that the student can be “coercedinto learning” Vnat the instructor wants himto learn. “The desire to learn must come fromwithin only,” Jacoby says. Presumably, thestudent will only learn what he desires tolearn, and 1 think this generally is the case,even though one’s desires to learn somethingmay embrace a goal which is broader thanthe subject matter alone. The pursuit ofgrades, unfortunately, is the best exampleoi this.Mr. Jacoby seems to imply in addition thatthe university has little or no responsi¬bility to shape desire, to instill curiosity andinterest. With this I would tend to disagree.Hut Mr. Jacoby is concerned primarily withthe fact that the present system seems tobe discouraging — if not stifling — intellec¬tual curiosity, and with this view of thingsI most emphatically concur.With those who don't feel that this is gen¬erally the case, with those who regard theCollege as offering a high level of liberaleducation, I don't care to argue. Rather,let’s take as our starting point that the pres¬ent program in general education is somehowanti-student, anti-knowledge.When a system doesn't work, one alter¬native is to throw it out and try another. Thisis Mr. Jacoby's solution. Perhaps becausehe cannot conceive of a set of general edu¬cation courses designed and conducted in away as to stimulate interest in their con¬tent, he would prefer an unlimited electivesystem, in which the student takes what hewants when he is ready for it, which ac¬cording to Mr. Jacoby is when he wants it.I have come to respect the right of theprecocious specialist to lock himself up withinhi* area of interest. To be more candid aboutit I might say that I know he will do itanyway, hut I think there is a positive viewas well: society needs a few creative ex¬perts and the younger they begin their train¬ing the better. For such people the programMr. Jacoby proposses would be quite ade¬quate. He would shop around the depart¬ ment of his choice until he found the sehol-lar(s) from whom he wished to learn, andwould settle down with these few people tolearn what they wanted to teach him.The student might have to shop over severalcampuses to find the men he wanted to workunder, but that would be all right — if itwere allowed. Within each university this al¬ready works to some extent, but only on theadvanced levels. The great minds in anyfield won’t spend much time with a studentuntil he has completed a lot ot prerequisitework, probably under less gifted scholars.That the college level courses in his fieldmay be routine and dull is no drawback tothe student with the burning passion for asubject. The instructor of such a student canwell afford to be a mediocre teacher. Hemay be shy, mildly tyranical, egocentric,idiosyncratic to an extreme. He can affordto deliver incredibly boring lectures in anearly incoherent mumble. If he is learnedin his field, this will be enough. Apparently,Mr. Jacoby has some special interest forwhich this sort of instruction would beenough. He merely wants the freedom tochoose “courses.” He mentions nothing aboutthe quality of teaching in these courses. Heeven goes so far as to suggest that just solong as he has had his choice, then every¬one else registered for the same coursesmight be forced to attend class. (Why, Mr.Jacoby? You will probably change your mindabout this when you find there are times whenyou are already competent in what the classis considering. At such times you'll welcomethe freedom to pursue other things on yourown.)Bui what of general education? Mr. Jacobyhas listed some good reasons for getting one.Now that he has sampled the fare for a termhe decides it’s a waste of time. Why? He at¬tributes his disinterest to what we mightlabel the “teaching fallacy,” defined by Jaco¬by as the assumption that students can becoerced into learning what the instructorswant to teach them.As Mr. Jacoby defines it. however, it is notentirely a fallacy. Instructors do coerce stu¬dents into learning in some sense what they,the instructors, want them to learn. Usuallythe tool of coercion is grades. Thus, aftergrades are in, the students are free to forgetwhat they hadn’t really cared to learn, any¬way, but which they had memorized toplease the instructor. The instructor has ef¬fectively fooled himself in the long run, buthe or the system has coerced his studentsinto an appearance of learning which bringsthe instructor some sense of having donehis job.Is it really the function of the general edu¬cation program to teach a particular body of knowledge? The answer, of course, shouldbe yes; otherwise, we beg the question en¬tirely. Nevertheless, I question seriouslywhether it should be the primary function.Rather, in a program of general education,the primary function of a teacher is to gen¬erate and constructively guide interest in asubject.It is assumed that the teacher has a par¬ticular competence in the subject field, andthat in the course of his contact with the stu¬dents he will impart to them no small amountof knowledge on the subject. But whether ornot he brings a class to a high level of com¬petence is secondary in importance to howwell he stimulates and constructively chan¬nels a self-perpetuating curiosity for the sub¬ject. In fact, if he is unable or uninterestedin generating this curiosity, the instructorwill never bring the class to that level of com¬petence he sees as desirable.A more accurate definition of the “teachingfallacy” then would seem to be that it is as¬sumed tile student can be coerced into be¬coming interested in whatever the instruc¬tor wishes to teach him. Most instruction inthe College operates under this fallacy. Forus to properly determine why this is sowould call for a consideration of the greatersociety as it is partly reflected in the insti¬tutions of this university. Hut at least one im¬portant cause of the prevalence of this fal¬lacy is internal. There is a profound confusionregarding the connection between scholar¬ship and teaching.The quotation from Paul Goodman’s Com¬munity of Scholars with which Mr. Jacobyconcludes his essay reminded me ot some¬thing Mr. Goodman said during the aims ofeducation conference held here several yearsago. He noted that a survey had been con¬ducted among a group of faculty and stu¬dents at some universities. The question ransomething like: what is the principal crite¬rion you use in judging someone’s capacityas a teacher? Among the faculty the preva¬lent answer was “evidence of scholarship.”such as papers published, membership inlearned societies, degrees, etc. Among thestudents the response was largely “evidenceof interest in the students.” Both answers areperhaps too subjective to be correct, but bothare expressions (that of the faculty beingmerely a subtler manifestation) of the samepsychological principle, viz everyone has aneed for acceptance and recognition.It is a sad fart on this campus that ex¬cellence in teaching is rewarded little andunderstood less. Increasingly, members of thefaculty are being recruited on the basis oftheir past or expected scholarly reputation.People are attracted to the faculty of TheCollege by the promise, explicit or otherwise, that they will soon, if not immediately, be¬come a member of the graduate departmentas well. This college-graduate school dualmembership is hailed as a boon to The Col¬lege. Don’t be fooled. The College will inevitably take poor seconds in such an arrange¬ment.I am not criticizing the brilliant young menwho come here with their PhD’s looking for asecure place in which to carry on their work.Some of them will undoubtedly be a creditto tl\e university and the community. But let'smake no mistake about the fact that as suchthey will rarely make inspired undergraduateteachers.What constitutes gcxxl teaching is a sub¬ject worthy of inquiry, its absence from dis¬cussion in the past notwithstanding. Likewise,how a university encourages good teaching isanother important question. The only pointI want to make here is that the present ad¬ministration of the University of Chicago isnot encouraging excellence in teaching, andto some extent is actually discouraging it.The administrators seem to be operating onthe false assumption that scholars will nec¬essarily take a serious and informed interestin the development of a group of students,simply because it is part of their job asmembers of the faculty to do so. Not only do! hold this position, but I must add that 1have heard no one disagree with it in privateconversation. If I miss the mark, someoneplease refute me.Mr. Jacoby and those among his freshmenclassmates who take a similar view of thingshave a choice between two alternatives: stayor leave (to coin a phrase). Things are notlikely to change much in the next few years.If one isn’t really interested in pursuing ageneral, liberal education and came here onlyto specialize, and if he is satisfied that hisown department will meet his needs whenhe has earned the right to work in it, thenhe should stay and make the best of therest. But if you still want a general, liberaleducation, Mr. Jacoby, and you are willing tosacrifice the few extra years it may cost youon the road to a doctorate or where ever youare going, then get out and find a good liberalarts college (a rare bird) where there existssome semblance of the community ot schol¬ars as Goodman describes it. I have heardthat St. John's College in Annapolis, Md., isa stimulating place to work.Whether or not you and your classmatesdecide to leave, Mr. Jacoby, you might con¬sider what sort of changes a general, liberaleducation entails. In the final analysis theresponsibility for developing and broadeningone's interests lies with the student himself.Randy Mack '►.. >■1 >JUST PUBLISHED!AFRICAN ECOLOGY AND HUMAN EVOLUTIONEdited by F.

Simpson con¬tinued.“British, too, is the room for theteacher who prefers to write on thehearts of young men instead of onpaper; the recurring effort to recap¬ture some of the intimacy and rigorof the tutorial system; and. ofcourse, the attitude to sport.” he con¬tinued.Research resourcesare German traditionThe German tradition in the Col¬lege is “the presence around it andinside of it” of those research re¬sources which have long distinguishedGerman universities.Simplon noted that UC was “oneof the first graduate institutions inthis country to be erected in the image of the great achievements ofnineteenth century German scholar¬ship.”“The presence of this mountainousorganization for the advancement ofknowledge, in both its brilliant andits stony aspects, adds a dimensionto the university college which ismissing from the uncomplicatedliberal arts college. It can eithergreatly enrich or painfully diminishthe quality of an undergraduate edu¬cation.”“The central problem in universitycolleges is to get the research facul¬ties to interest themselves in under¬graduates, to appreciate their specialneeds, and to devote to the fertiliza¬tion of young minds some fruitfulfraction of their own energies,” Simp¬son said.The American tradition is a con¬cern for practical needs. This tradi¬tion, according to Simpson, has beenmuch more influential at institutionsother than Chicago: “We have noschools of agriculture, engineering,journalism, or performing arts.” Yet,Chicago has a concern for the fulfil¬ment of the society’s practical goals.“Our special bent is to identify theintellectual element in a problem,”he added.UC is greatcenter of powerMoreover, UC is “a center ofpower with tremendous implicationsfor national security and public wel¬fare, and it’s a dull undergraduatewho is not quickened by the thoughtof our involvement in social engineer¬ing on a gigantic scale,” he said.The second major element in thegenius of the College, is concern forliberal education, which, accordingto Simpson, is a matter of intellectualtools, literary skills, some breadth ofknowledge, some grasp of standards,some sense of style.”The ideal of liberal education, in¬fluential since the days of ancientGreece, is most urgently needed to¬day “when the explosion of knowledgeand number is making its cultivationso difficult,” he said.Simpson decried the national tend¬ ency to downgrade the undergraduatecollege, which bears most of theresponsibility for liberal education, atthe expense of graduate research.Against the increasing intellectualpoverty of the American college, UChas initiated a frontal attack. Inmany ways, UC reaffirms its com¬mitment to outstanding undergradu¬ate education. The University “doesnot hesitate to proclaim that manydifferent kinds of excellence areneeded to sustain a good college.”President Beadle, according toSimpson, “exemplifies the convictionthat the greatest scientists shouldalso be the greatest teachers.”UC’s College, Simpson feels, hasthe double advantage of being ableto draw on the resources of the uni¬versity while being capable of de¬veloping an independent thrust.Describessilent civilizersSimpson described the College’sunobtrusive successes as the “silentcivilizers in our midst" which are“too subtle and individual to be trans¬lated by the promoter, too imperviousto offer a foothold to he critic, ignoredby the talkers but 'prized by thegrateful learners.”“I would include among our un¬obtrusive successes,” Simpson said,“during his college days here, thebiologist James Dewey Watson, whowas recently awarded a Nobel Prizeat the age of thirty-three for dis¬coveries made at twenty-five—a sym¬bol of our power to stimulate quietlyan original mind.”These successes are quiet onesbecause “it is part of the genius ofa good college to conceal from thereports of its public relations depart¬ment, its convocation speakers, or itsstudent newspaper, the excellence ofmany of its wares,” he said.These virtues are, nevertheless,numerous at UC. They flow' from ahigh tradition of disciplined learning;they are the assurance that intelli-gance is being trained, creativityencouraged, and taste refined,”Simpson concluded.
