1 Why Science?
by Gerard Piel, Sc.D. '60
This article has been written for the Alumnus by Gerard Piel, Sc.D. '60, one of the most gifted men of American science. Its publication coincides with the dedication of the Seeley G. Mudd Science Building and the comple tion, this fall, of the new Science Center. A 1937 graduate of Harvard, Piel was science editor at Life magazine from 1939 to 1944. After two years as assistant to the president of the Henry]. Kaiser Co. and associated companies, he became president and pub lisher of the Scientific American in 1947, a position he still retains. In the citation read at commencement in 1960 in con ferring a doctor of science degree, President ]. Seelye Bixler told Piel: "Committed to the idea that science can flourish only in a society that protects freedom of con science and that public opinion in a free society must shape the course of science itself, you have made the Scientific American a journal through which scientists can speak to their fellow citizens and laymen in turncan ask for scientific judgment on the problems on which they seek light. Your conviction that the work of tl1e laboratory makes a significant impact on society, and society one no less significant on the laboratory has en abled this important magazine under your inspired guidance to interpret the needs of one to the other .... Colby would honor you particularly for your realistic vision of what mind's control over nature may mean for the future and for your exposition of the role which science itself may play in the practice of the liberal arts." Piel is an overseer of Harvard College and a trustee of Radcliffe College, Phillips Academy, the American Museum of Natural History, New York University, the Mayo Foundation, and the Henry ]. Kaiser Family Foundation.He is the author of Science in the Cause of Man, 1961, and The Acceleration of History, 1972.

This schizophrenia works its worst mischief when questions of value are at The first yield from work in science is science ... issue. It has a dishonorable origin in the truce drawn between the faculties of arts and of sciences that closed the Darwinian controversy a century ago. Science, held work-science finds immense practical consequences; an to be value-free, was reserved to scientists. Value was industrial process is the original experiment repeated correspondingly staked out for the humanists, as lying continuously on the grand scale. The utility of science is sufficiently celebrated in our culture. This essay is con cerned with science as a kind of work that men do as an end in itself. The objectification of knowledge asserts Science thus purely defined is no less consequential in the primacy of the individual man ... the lives of men. From science has come the new self recognition of the human species, across racial, nation al, cultural, and class boundaries, that is shared ever beyond the reach of reason in the province of feeling more widely, with ascending moral force, among men and emotion, which it was the function of arts and all over the planet. The objectification of knowledge letters to refine and elevate. asserts the primacy of the individual man and makes Such dualism too often sanctions the employment of irreversibly absurd the claim of any external authority bad means for the attainment of declared good ends. If upon his perception and judgment or upon his con science. In his "flight fro� wonder" -the phrase is Albert Einstein's-man has come abroad into a universe that beggars in scale, invention, and splendor the para dises and infernos of his innocent imagination. The choice of truth, the submission to the discipline of objective knowledge, is an ethical act. The truth is of itself a good, although it may b� used for good or ill. Yet it is argued-and too often conceded-that science is value-free.
From science has come the new self-recognition of the human species ...
To take that position is to abandon questions of value to unreason. As men comprehend that the natural locus of purpose in the universe is inside their own heads, they will learn to give these questions their best thinking. The immense utility of science compels such effort and lends pragmatic power to the golden rule. There is urgent need to comprehend the relevance of science to questions of value. Science has subverted the · traditional values of our culture and the comforts of its received absolutes, whether certified by religious or Gerard Piel secular authorities. The resulting void is darkened by

These are the values of the emergent world culture.

For it is the scientific-industrial revolution that has made pos sible the approach to this social order by the fortunate peoples who live in the industrial, or "developed," mathematician J.

That the disparity was due to inequity can be seen today in the contrast in height and weight between the prerevolution Russian peasantry and their postrevolution urban grandchildren. The evi dence amassed by genetics, anthropology, psychology, and human biology has overwhelmingly crushed the mythology of race. Such a concept can no longer hold any standing in the value system of a civilized society or supply rationalization for social policy. On the con trary, objective knowledge affirms the value of equality before the law. The ethic of objective knowledge sets noble aims for the conduct of the individual and for the organization 4 Science at Colby From Tentative Beginnings to a Robust Vitality by Dean Ernest C.

No one was sure where chemistry should be placed, in natural philos ophy or in natural history. It was the first modern science to be f'\amed in the catalog, in 1835, when Justin Loomis was appointed professor of chemistry and natural history. Physics was not mentioned in the catalog until 1884. Geology came in 1888, although classes in mineral ogy had been taught as early as 1845. Not until nearly the 20th cen tury did the catalog list biology, though botany and physiology had been in the curriculum before the Civil War. An instructor in biology was named in 1897, but there was no separate department until 1905. The chemistry department came in 1885 and physics in 1886. Jhey were followed by geology in 1888.

Copley, born in Boston in 1738, was one of the most sought after portrait painters in New England until he left the colonies in 1774. As the Revolution approached, he found it increasingly difficult to remain politically neutral, and he went to England. After traveling in Italy, Copley returned to London in 1775 where he pursued a highly successful career. He died there in 1815. This bequest brings the number of portraits by the famous artist in the museum's collection to four. Earlier this year, the Vaughan Family of Maine presented the college with a study of Benjamin Hallowell that was painted by Copley between 1765 and 1768.
