CProfessor Willis Moorej V 9 W-.lp l 'Tag' ' tu ss iitt, till lllllflll A Southern Tells Students 'Learn to Learn' The foremost purpose of any academic institution should be that of education, education which prepares young men and women for their future roles in society. Here at SIU the academic program is oriented in two phases. One phase gives the individual the soundest possible academic and technical background in prep- aration for his chosen profession. Courses and training in a major Held give the student not only the necessary background, but they also provide actual experience. The second educational phase proposes to give the student a sophisticated view of the world. Designed to enrich the sum total of the student's education, the Uni- versity degree requirements encompass humanities, sci- ences and social sciences. Thus exposed to man and the world he inhabits, the student is better able to grasp the full significance of his role as an individual taking part in the many aspects of human interaction which combine to give form to society. 19
