If you are an English major, where will CeHnOs ever fit into the rime scheme of things? Answers or questions? Is this education merely exercise for a brain heading toward rigor mortis — and diffusion of knowledge, the preserva- tive? Is there any sense in the thought that knowing where the scala vestibuli is located will lend skill to those whose father doesn ' t own the business ? And is it possible that the mother will gain insight into her children ' s behavior from a list of constellations she once memorized and located? A tisket, a tasket . . . . — a 36(f window for the mind to view panoramic-ally all there is to see and hear and touch and smell and know. But where is the grand culmination of the conglomeration of Freud, Tennyson, Newton, Spinoza, Pascal, and Rembrandt? An airline stewardess juggling trays— what does she think about? Benjamin Franklin had over 100 illegitimate children — because the American Lit book was read and digested and re- gurgitated on finals one December?

THE FUTURE: Life After Death? nsits: If a liberal arts education can be segmented, Social, In- tellectual, and Spiritual must be the most obvious divisions: yet, ideally they balance one against the other to develop the ' Southern student as a whole person. Over coffee in the snack bar, the student discusses his future after graduation and finds that life in the out- side world becomes almost as mystical as life after death. But men before him have taken the step from the college womb into the cold reality and worldly matrix; many have come out the better for having been exposed to music appreciation. Dr. Burnette ' s history seminar, and Coach Battle ' s philosophy ofP.E. Founder ofEBSCO Industries, Elton B. Stevens, surely gleaned some humanistic cunning from his liberal arts education— and with it, the key to making people spend money his way; while Thomas Ogletree learned enough objectivity to analyze rationally God-is-dead religion and to become a major contemporary theologian in the South; and Jean Mandereau gained perceptive insight into every aspect of the American tradition and cul- ture, insight which the French government felt to be valuable enough (in addition to his abilities) to appoint him Consulate General to the United States. Yes, these men are special, but they are such because their success beyond the College symbolizes the achievement of the goals of liberal arts education. 14
