Governoris School is a five week resi- dential program for students who spe- cialize in certain areas of study. Profes- sors, doctors, and teachers from Arkan- sas and other states taught and directed students toward 20th century theories and ideas. The days were divided into three areas. Area I allowed students to work in their major interest area, Area II was a discussion time for esthetics, religion, ethics, and logic, Area III allowed stu- dents time for expressing feelings, writ- ing in journals, and for discussing cur- rent events. Other activities for students included lectures by Hilary Rodham Clinton, wife of Governor Clinton and also chairperson of the Committee on Excel- lence in Education and Tom McRae, President of the Winthrop Rockefeller Foundation.
