PogeTwo- EdHorial Comments 'Progressive' Education? Outspoken comments on "progressive education" have come to be expected of Dr. Maxwell Rafferty who has been California's superintendent of public instruction for a little over one month now. ,' Unfortunately the average citizen and even many "above average" citizens have not had the opportunity to examine Dr. Rafferty's attacks. All that is commonly known is that the former Southern California school superintendent based his campaign on a "back to subject matter" appeal, and that is not progress. But for that matter, how large a percentage of the public actually understands the principles of "progressive educa¬ tion?" The truth may be that far too few understand and that even more people are very little concerned. Public apathy can probably be attributed in part to the seeming complexity of the topic which is hardly a plausible excuse for unconcern. All this is to point to the need for each of us, as part of our own education, to learn about "progressive education," to decide for ourselves whether the "progressive" philosophy merits the criticism it is currently receiving. * The students on this campus who are in any way concerned with education in our state and in our nation should prepare now to become acquainted with the facts of "progressive education."
