THE WASTE DF IQOLATED LEARNING There are those who wonder endlessly and loudly why the American student does not hunger after knowledge, when so much is available. Don't they know that even a glut- ton can take only a measured amount at one time? My appetite has been sadly spoiled by forced-feeding.

THE BEAUTY OF INSPIRED LEARNING . . . The last year. Ohhh, Mmmmmmmmmmm. No-more-pen-cils-no-more-books-no-more- teach-ers . . . No more. No more laws governing my behavior and my placement. At least, now my time is really mine to spend as I wish, to use and waste. This is more than I thought. Some basic moral and American principles are involved with my being free. It l had the time and the inclination, l would sit down and think about them. I haven't either, though. Time waits for no one. I must be off! I've been still so long. Twelve years is not one moment to eternity, but how large a part of my life?

THE GLORY OF FRIENDS . . But, my Twelve years at schooling have given me countless things. They have given me the knowledge I will surely need to compete in a modern, advanced society. They have taught me that l must compete. On occasion, they have brought me to a Teacher so in- terested in me and the subject that the learning process became a reality in me. They have given the camaraderie that I will remember after the book facts are forgotten, a symbol in which to place my pride, an awareness ot human character traits, and, I know that they have given many things they never intended to give, But, they have taken, too. Sometimes they have taken my natural curiosity and entrusted it to an in- structor who merely instilled in me a deep feeling of boredom. They have taken pre- cious time from my lite and indiscriminately wasted it. 24
