Pity Them on Nights Like These ...

A nationally known cigarette sends out a six.

tion ii
t of higher educati
eviewed by Edwin C. Embree in the Saturday Review of Literature, has proved to be
one of the most bombastic attacks upon the
field of college education and instruction yet to
be issued in the past few years.
The Carnegie Foundation, for many years
outstanding in the field of education, has issued
the report which might, should its expositions
be accepted, undermine a great deal of the faith
which the American pubUc has come to put in
formal education.
More children are in high schools here than
in all the rest of the world together, it is revealed in the report, with more than a million
and a quarter enrolled in the higher institutions
of American learning. These institutions are referred to in the report as "dream castles where
it is hopefully believed our young men and
women acquire some knowledge." The accompanying study of Pennsylvania schools indicates
that a large percentage of students are not getting any information, let alone wisdom.
The most devastating section of the report
as shown by Mr. Embree'includes a study of
some 50 freshmen followed through a four-year
course. More than two-thirds of the group knew
less at the end of their junior year than they
did during their freshman year. They had less
accurate information and their insight and understanding had been blunted, according to the
It has been said that one of the faults of
modern education is that the instructor asks
the questions and the student is forced to provide the answers; in place of the normal procedure with children where it is the youth who
asks the qeustions. It may be true that the
young people now in American colleges do not
have sufficient intelligence to take the initiative in their own education. If so, the sooner the
fact is brought to light and a divorce effected
between the two factors the better.
It has been said that a great part of the
congestion in American colleges is caused by
the attempt to force education into masses of
students who are either incapable or unwilling
to receive it. The best measure of a student's
capacity to be educated is his ability to read
and to study for himself.
