There is a great difference in feeling toward our academic life when we look hack and begin to see that there is a tangible result being formed out of what seemed to be a hodge-podge of term papers, lab science courses, concerts, trips to the museums of art and those seemingly unending sociology readings. Yes, we can begin to see that those hours spent tracing a drop of blood, searching for source material, listening for theme and variation, attempting to fathom the bio-social approach to man s problems or deliberating on what are the values and functions of certain works of art have been worthwhile. Al- though we may not appreciate or enjoy all these, we can also begin to see that there are some who possess that same disinterest or patient toleration of our own chosen field; and we, in turn, become more tolerant. Even if this be the only result of our short look back, we have come a long way since that first theme we wrote on what we thought was wrong with the present-day system of higher education. Having acquired this understanding of the interest and disinterest of others, we now have some understanding of the prime aim of a liberal education—to make us appreciate and be tolerant of native and foreign cultures. A rain of books and not a rain of bombs is the surest way to complete freedom.
