-- - i; --ii II --l-ll·-yl...-- oolnron Technical education isn't always enough TBNsgRWJRma, By William Lasser Many of the most pressing problems which America faces can be traced directly to the philosophy of education which pervades our uni- versity system, and which is epitomized by the approach taken here. The difficulties faced by our cities, by our government and by our people are in a large sense the result of a narrow, ad hoc approach to a series of individual problems, attempts at quick, short-term answers to questions which require exactly the opposite tack. MIT graduates especially are taught to consider only the immediate effects of their actions, to be content with having staved off disaster for yet another day, to delude themselves into thinking that all that matters is the present objective, and that future crises can be dealt with as they arise. We become extraordinarily adept at conjuring up specific solutions to in- dividual problems. But we must be told what to do at every step of the way. We are never given the opportunity to look at the real world from a wide angle; to deter- mine what is wrong and how we can go about fixing it. Instead, we begin to resemble the intricate web of the French THEWAR COURT underground, in which everyone had a THE BURGER COURT task to perform but no one knew anything of what anyone else was bs I · 1 111 - -- -II I aL -rl c doing.
