Relevance and Liberal Learnim

By DR. MARVIN B. PERRY, JR. President of Goucher College

Let me confess at the outset that my pleasure in

standing before you is tempered with no little trepida- tion. It is not easy to know how to talk to young people today—that is, in "relevant" and convincing terms even if one has been for a long time in education, and especially if one is well on the downhill side of thirty! There is not only the generation gap, but, as Oscar Wilde said of his first trip to America, "there is also the language barrier!" To undermine my confidence

still further, as I was working on these remarks last week, I received some friendly but pointed advice from the wife of an old friend, an Agnes Scott alumna who

had read in one of your publications that I was to be here today. "Whatever you say," she wrote, "don't talk down to Agnes Scott girls!"

I think I know enough of Agnes Scott, and its splendid reputation, not to make that kind of mistake. But I certainly do not consider myself an expert on the education of women, despite the continuing apprenticeship I have had as the father of two daughters (who will soon be entering college themselves). If I have learned anything from this apprenticeship, it is that the education —or cultivation—of women is expensive!

But it is aspect of a larger concern, a universal desire of sen also a delightful and rewarding, if sometimes, and thinking men to find direction baffling, experience.

Such reforms did alleviate a great deal of the unnecessary frustration and friction within the campus community without destroying our unique atmosphere of trust and respect, as well as concern, for other individuals. Constructive reforms in the academic area also improved our situation.

Intellectual Independence

By SIR JOHN ROTHENSTEIN

I first came to Agnes Scott in the fall of 1967 to give a lecture. I knew that it was a highly respected college for women, but nothing more. This was a place, I immediately became aware, with a very special character, but my visit was too short to allow me to amplify my first impression. I was conscious of particular pleasure, however, when some months later, I received an invitation to pay a second and rather longer visit the following fall. This second visit sharpened my earlier impression but even though

I was here for several days it was still not long enough to enable me to see much more than that this was an extraordinarily friendly place. When, for instance, I was walking in the direction of the dining hall, students would ask me to sit with them at lunch or dinner and in general kept a friendly eye on my com- ings and goings. The conversation of the students 1 met was intelligent and amusing. The members of the faculty were evidently dedicated scholars and teachers. When shortly afterwards I received an invitation from President Alston to spend this semester here, I was delighted. My original impression of prevailing goodwill was still further heightened in the course of correspond- ence with the President, Mrs. Pepe, Dean Gary, Mr. Nelson, Miss Boney, and other members of the faculty. The combined effect of all those contacts was to make me feel, when I arrived 22 of September, that it was almost like coming home.

I have now been here for seven weeks. During this time all my earlier intimations as to the kind of place that Agnes Scott was have been abundantly clarified and confirmed, particularly that of the prevailing goodwill. For instance, during this period, I have not heard any one, either student or faculty member, speak ill of any member of the College. On the contrary I have found a strong disposition to look for, and to find, the best in their fellow human beings.

This, surely, is a rare state of affairs, especially in an academy of learning—and I speak with knowledge of a fair number of them. It is a state of affairs which, for all its virtues, no one would be likely to Sir in front of impute to my own University. Were this happy state John Dana .

beyond question. Philosophers have extolled it down the ages. I need only remind you of Plato's key distinction between knowledge and opinion episteme and doxa—and his conviction that to live by the latter and by the mere customs of one's society is to live a life that may be a good one but is more likely, in the vicissitudes of time, not to be. The circumstances that prevail in this decade of the 20th century give it a very special value indeed.

It is one of today's paradoxes that so much is heard about education, democracy, freedom, equality, em- ancipation from constricting, even corrupting traditions, and the like—about everything, indeed, which on the face of it, should foster objectivity and independence of mind—that it is easy to be unaware that these things are gravely threatened. to judge of the matter from what see Were we we and with his characteristic smile as he lectures on television, we hear on the radio or read in the newspapers, we would be likely to form the impression provides no more than the possibility of freedo that, in the western world at least, the bright day of those who know what it is and are prepared to intellectual liberty had dawned.

THE ACNES SCOTT ALUMNAE QUART About the Author: Catherine Wood Marshall LeSourd '36 is best known as the author, Catherine Marshall. She credits

Agnes Seott with major influence in her life. She was on campus in May for a meeting of the Board of Trustees and

delivered a lecture which she has summarized in this article.

helps us to understand all men as well as ourselves. Second. Jung concluded that no human being can

find himself and what is to be his work in the world,

if he cuts his roots with the past. Jung wrote: Our souls as well as our bodies are composed of individual elements which were all already present in the ranks of our ancestors. Body and soul, therefore, have an intensely historical character. The less we understand of what our fathers and forefathers sought, the less we understand ourselves. Thus we help to rob the individual of his roots and of his guiding instincts. 1 For us this must mean that unless we are rooted in

history, we become hoboes in a friendless universe, with no sense of belonging anywhere.

Let us be absolutely frank and open-eyed about the groups who constitute the extremist element in our universities and colleges.

There is no excuse for being ignorant about them, for they have been the subjects of intensive scholarly analysis. They are the small minority—most experts say that they constitute no more than 5 per cent of student bodies—who for one reason or another are totally alienated from society. Like most extremists,

they tend to be paranoic and to see life as one gigantic conspiracy against them personally. In their scheme of things, there is no place whatever for difference of opinion, for all opinions different from their own are errors, indeed heresies of the rankest sort. Historians

of this group all agree that they began in the early 1960's as philosophical anarchists who were rebelling

against society in the hope of substituting purified institutions for corrupt ones, but that they have become during the past three years increasingly nihilistic and dedicated to destruction for its own sake. It is this element that has denied the moral legitimacy of

modern universities. It is this group who have in fact been the catalysts and organizers of rebellion and riots. By themselves, they are a hopeless and ridiculous minority. They have succeeded only when they have been able to exploit broad legitimate student dis- contents.

PLANS PROPHESY ATASG

What happens now in the Agnes Scott College community and what decisions are made now can well determine the state of the college ten years from now. No one voice can speak for all the individual opinions on campus, but comments from some of the leaders may help alumnae understand that their Alma Mater will attempt to remain sane and sound in the Seventies.

CAROLYN COX 71, President of Student Government: "We at Agnes Scott are firmly committed to the rule of reason and to rational decision- making. We are convinced of the sincere desire of the American people for peace in our time, both at home and abroad. ... It is our hope that you (alumnae) will join with us, in your own way, in seeking to secure the peace we all value. Your role in the community as a sensitive, intelligent, and committed individual can go a long way toward achieving our common ." aims. . . CATHERINE MARSHALL LESOURD '36, Board of Trustees: "I am deeply troubled—to put it mildly—about the nation. I think we are walking a very tight line. ... I do not know of any area of American life that is not

going through revolution. . .. Our Judeo-Christian heritage is under assault

open assault now. . but dissent can be a healthy thing, the best thing that

can happen to the church. ... College students who are serious about dissent without violence might spearhead a 'pray-in' such as the nation did spontaneously and instinctively for the Apollo 13 astronauts."

WALLACE M. ALSTON, President. In the Seventies, "wise, aggressive, diligent, prayerful we must be," Dr. Alston said to the Trustees. "Putting

Agnes Scott in a national context, in its 81st year, our four basic qualities, independence, liberal arts emphasis, a college for women and a Christian commitment are all in question today. ... I recommend that the Board make a thorough appraisal of Agnes Scott's purpose and future course. I, personally, believe that the only way to state our purpose, the only purpose we have, is in terms of what we've been, where we are. Our principles are sound.

"We can be independent— if we work hard enough to raise the necessary money. The liberal arts commitment is sound—we need a new statement, definition, for liberal arts in the space age. . . . The question of whether Agnes Scott should 'go co-ed' gives some people great trouble. Coeducation in itself is not the only answer to many problems—might make more for a college like ours. Dr Dexter M. Keezer, former president of Reed College (coed) and a trustee of Elmira College (women's college for years) warned in a recent article in 'New Republic' magazine against losing the strength of women's colleges in higher education. He concluded: 'So, both inside and outside of the classroom, I believe the good women's colleges will be downgrading and diluting their educational performances by succumbing

.' to the modish pressure to become coeducational. . . In the decade between now and then, our colleges and universities must face some large and perplexing issues

nineteen eighty! A few months ago the date had a comforting re- moteness about it. It was detached from today's reality; too distant to worry about. But now, with the advent of a new decade, 1980 suddenly has become the next milepost to strive for. Suddenly, for the nation's colleges and universities and those who care about them, 1980 is not so far away after all. between now and then, our colleges and ti versities will have more changes to make, nfl ^D major issues to confront, more problems to soh more demands to meet, than in any comparable period in their histq

In 1980 they also will have: More students to serve—an estimated 11.5-million, compared) some 7.5-million today.

More professional staff members to employ—a projected 1. million, compared to 785,000 today. Bigger budgets to meet—an estimated $39-billion in uninflatf 1968-69 dollars, nearly double the number of today.

Larger salaries to pay—$16,532 in 1968-69 dollars for t average full-time faculty member, compared to $11,595 last year. More library books to buy—half a billion dollars' worth, coi pared to $200-million last year.

New programs that are not yet even in existence—with an a nual cost of %4.1-billion. Those are careful, well-founded projections, prepared by one of 4

leading economists of higher education, Howard R. Bowen. Yet til

are only one indication of what is becoming more and more evid^ in every respect, as our colleges and universities look to 1980: No decade in the history of higher education—not even the event) one just ended, with its meteoric record of growth—has come closej what the Seventies are shaping up to be.

WHAT WILL BE THE PICTURE by the did of decade? Will campus disruptions continue-^ 7n perhaps spread—throughout the Seventies?1

questions facing the colleges and universities today are more critic

or more difficult to answer with certainty. Some ominous On the dark side are reports from hundreds of high schools to^ reports from effect that "the colleges have seen nothing, yet." The National AI the high schools ciation of Secondary School Principals, in a random survey, found tj 59 per cent of 1,026 senior and junior high schools had exponent

some form of student protest last year. A U.S. Office of Educati

official termed the high school disorders "usually more precipito ontaneous, and riotlike" than those in the colleges. What such mblings may presage for the colleges and universities to which many the high school students are bound, one can only speculate.

Even so, on many campuses, there is a guarded optimism. "I know nay have to eat these words tomorrow," said a university official who d served with the National Commission on the Causes and Prevention

Violence, "but I think we may have turned the corner." Others echo sentiments.

"If anything," said a dean who almost superstitiously asked that he t be identified by name, "the campuses may be meeting their difficul-

Some observers see another reason for believing that the more de- ductive forms of student protest may be on the wane. Large numbers students, including many campus activists, appear to have been alien- id this year by the violent tactics of extreme radicals. And deep risions have occurred in Students for a Democratic Society, the radical ganization that was involved in many earlier campus disruptions. In 1968, the radicals gained many supporters among moderate stu- Despite the scare nts as a result of police methods in breaking up some of their demon- headlines, a mood rations. This year, the opposite has occurred. Last fall, for example, of cautious optimism e extremely radical "Weatherman" faction of Students for a Demo- ark Society deliberately set out to provoke a violent police reaction Chicago by smashing windows and attacking bystanders. To the Weathermen's disappointment, the police were so restrained that they on the praise of many of their former critics—and not only large imbers of moderate students, but even a number of campus sds chap- rs, said they had been "turned off" by the extremists' violence.

The president of the University of Michigan, Robben Fleming, is nong those who see a lessening of student enthusiasm for the extreme- idical approach. "I believe the violence and force will soon pass,

PARTIALLY UNDERLYING THE CAUTIOUS OPTIMISIiffl is a feeling that many colleges and universities^^ \J v_yb which, having been peaceful places for decades,: were unprepared and vulnerable when the first disruptions struck—have learned a lot in a short time.

When they returned to many campuses last fall, students were greeted. Many colleges have with what The Chronicle of Higher Education called "a combination of learned a lot stern warnings against disruptions and conciliatory moves aimed at from the disruptions giving students a greater role in campus governance." Codes of discipline had been revised, and special efforts had been made to acquaint students with them. Security forces had been strength-

ened. Many institutions made it clear that they were willing to seek

court injunctions and would call the police if necessary to keep the peace. Equally important, growing numbers of institutions were recognizing that, behind the stridencies of protest, many student grievances were indeed legitimate. The institutions demonstrated (not merely talked about) a new readiness to introduce reforms. While, in the early days of campus disruptions, some colleges and universities made ad hoc concessions to demonstrators under the threat and reality of violence,] more and more now began to take the initiative of reform, themselves. The chancellor of the State University of New York, Samuel B. Gould| 1 described the challenge:

"America's institutions of higher learning .. . must do more than make piecemeal concessions to change. They must do more than merely defend themselves.

"They must take the initiative, take it in such a way that there is

never a doubt as to what they intend to achieve and how all the compo-

nents of the institutions will be involved in achieving it. They must call

together their keenest minds and their most humane souls to sit and probe and question and plan and discard and replan—until a new

concept of the university emerges, one which will fit today's needs but

will have its major thrust toward tomorrow's."

IF THEY ARE TO ARRIVE AT THAT DATE in improved condition, however, more and more colleges and ' universities—and their constituencies—seem to be saying they must work out their reforms in an atmosphere of calm and reason.

Cornell University's vice-president for public affairs, Steven Muller ("My temperament has always been more activist than scholarly"),

put it thus before the American Political Science Association: The need now: "The introduction of force into the university violates the very to work on reform, essence of academic freedom, which in its broadest sense is the freedom calmly, reasonably to inquire, and openly to proclaim and test conclusions resulting from

inquiry. . . .

"It should be possible within the university to gain attention and ta make almost any point and to persuade others by the use of reason.

Even if this is not always true, it is possible to accomplish these ends by nonviolent and by noncoercive means. "Those who choose to employ violence or coercion within the umB versity cannot long remain there without destroying the whole fabric those who today believe other- : the academic environment. Most of ise are, in fact, pitiable victims of the very degradation of values they e attempting to combat." Chancellor Gould has observed:

"Among all social institutions today, the university allows more ssent, takes freedom of mind and spirit more seriously, and, under insiderable sufferance, labors to create a more ideal environment for se expression and for the free interchange of ideas and emotions than

ly other institution in the land. . ..

"But when dissent evolves into disruption, the university, also by its Can dissent exist in a climate of ay nature, finds itself unable to cope ... without clouding the real ." freedom and civility? >ues beyond hope of rational resolution. . . The president of the University of Minnesota, Malcolm Moos, said

>t long ago:

"The ills of our campuses and our society are too numerous, too rious, and too fateful to cause anyone to believe that serenity is the oper mark of an effective university or an effective intellectual corn- unity. Even in calmer times any public college or university worthy individuals of widely : the name has housed relatively vocal and groups

verging political persuasions. ... The society which tries to get its lildren taught by fettered and fearful minds is trying not only to

Until recently, almost by definition, a college or university was epted as a neutral in the world's political and ideological arenas; dispassionate in a world of passions; as having what one observer led "the unique capacity to walk the razor's edge of being both in i out of the world, and yet simultaneously in a unique relationship h it." rhe college or university was expected to revere knowledge, wher-

:r knowledge led. Even though its research and study might provide

means to develop more destructive weapons of war (as well as life- ring medicines, life-sustaining farming techniques, and life-enhancing ellectual insights), it pursued learning for learning's sake and rarely ;stioned, or was questioned about, the validity of that process.

ITie college or university was dedicated to the proposition that there re more than one side to every controversy, and that it would jlore them all. The proponents of all sides had a hearing in the idemic world's scheme of things, yet the college or university,

:ltering and protecting them all, itself would take no stand. Today the concept that an institution of higher education should be ltral in political and social controversies—regardless of its scholars' •sonal beliefs—is being challenged both on and off the campuses. rhose who say the colleges and universities should be "politicized"

;ue that neutrality is undesirable, immoral—and impossible. They say

; academic community must be responsible, as Carl E. Schorske, rfessor of history at the University of California at Berkeley, wrote in blications of the Modern Language Association, for the "implications its findings for society and mankind." "The scholar's zeal for truth shout consequences," said Professor Schorske, has no place on the npus today.

absence of the kind of choice that is thrust, if not imposed, upon the boy. In spite of the presence of some alternative models in the adult society around the young girl, the standard pattern, still, is for her to assume that there is one thing and one thing only that she will do and should do and must do. Now this kind of conditioning, I would argue, is wasteful enough when a woman in later, adult experience is substantially supportive of the early training. When the experience she has as an adult is consistent with the kinds of expectations concerning her usefulness, her satisfactions, and her way of life that she has acquired through such early conditioning, the results may be wasteful for society and for her. but they probably are not seriously harm- ful. But we know that even today that is far from uniformly the experience. All we have to do is witness the crop of bored and frustrated suburban house- wives, over-educated diaper changers and under-utilized community workers. The contrast between the early

We certainly also know that in the decades ahead such adult experiences choice that is thrust upon them by the very conditi ing process I will be even less consistent with the expectations that to which have referred. are developed by this kind of conditioning. Even if we There are, of course, a great many young wor cannot know now precisely what the new definitions who even at this age find acceptable, comfortable w of women's roles will be in the decades ahead, we of making the choice or of dealing with its fals very know they will be different. Given the wide range of differences among j in character, personality, talents, maturity, The pinch comes, I think, from two facts. One is and that the social conditioning of the women who will is to be expected. But many do not find such acceptable way of handling the problem, or do be 40 years old in the year 2000 is already substantially complete. The ten-year-olds today who will be forty in find a way of handling it that is in any reason; the year 2000 have been exposed now, most of them, to degree easy. The personal and social waste in 10 very important years of conditioning in the pattern false but real situation, is, I think, incalculable, es cially if the young chooses consciously that I have just described. The second fact is that this woman unconsciously to subordinate her development conditioning process, if our past experience is any a person and an intellect to guide at a'l, is likely to change much less rapidly than her success as a female. the character of the adult environment itself. The If this kind of waste is to be minimized, these m experiences to which women will be exposed will change, young women need a setting in which they can w as you well know.

Ann Worthy suffered several strokes and was unconscious during the week prior to her death. Her service to the College for the past sixteen years was marked by a deep devotion to the purposes for which Agnes Scott lives. Wallace M. Alston
