The classroom should be one of the most important cen- ters of questioning on any campus. It is here that the profes- sional educator makes his influence felt. Literature, history, mathematics, and technical courses should serve to stretch the mind. A journey in search of Mr. Kurtz or Eldorado can be a journey in search of ourselves. An examination of the French Revolution or the principles of Sir Thomas More can reinforce a balanced view of life and man. Struggling with a mathe- matical formula or developing a technical skill can serve to broaden our experience. All these things can happen with a willingness on the part of the student to learn and an enthusiasm on the part of the teacher to teach. This enthusiasm can bring life and relevancy to a subject; it can impart a love of learning to a student.

By opening new areas of consideration, by presenting conflicting points of view, by challenging the things we may accept, the teacher helps in the process of questioning. A teacher may be many things —a professional educator, a poli- tician, a newspaperman, a scientist, an entertainer. Many “teachers” visited Broome Tech during 1966-67: Governor Nelson Rockefeller, Norman Thomas, Dr. Marvin Opler, Earl Ubell, Blair Ewing, Paul Adams, Craig Spence, Olatunji and James Meredith. In some cases, teachers may reinforce our own convic- tions; in others they may challenge our beliefs. Some of them served to broaden our experience in a completely new direc- tion. In any case their contributions are important to anyone who seeks to widen his scope.

The most volatile component of the educational system and the one for whom the system exists is the student. It is here that the success or failure of the educational system will be felt. It is not so much a quantity of knowledge, as an attitude toward knowledge that it is important to foster. Education does not stop with graduation; a capacity and desire for continued growth must be present. This capacity and desire is basic to a questioning attitude. It is important that the student develop a sense of respon- sibility. He must hold no one in awe, he must accept nothing blindly, he must compromise his principles for no one if he is to find himself and maintain that grip.
