“

HE academic spectrum of Brown as both a college and a university can never be adequately experienced by any one person. A college career cannot be captured by words alone. And most students begin to understand the significance of their years on the hill only after their departure. Yet while the under- graduate adjusts to curriculum requirements and struggles with advanced courses, he may gather a few notions about the distinctiveness of his academic community. Like many other colleges, Brown maintains a full range of liberal arts and science fac- ulties. But Brown's uniqueness lies in the close connection between undergraduate and graduate levels, with an accompanying em- phasis on independent work. The availability of special programs and the close association of students with the professors constitute the basis of the academic structure. The increasing emphasis on specialization has not affected the breadth of the curricu- lum adversely; it has enlarged the sphere of advanced study at the undergraduate level. Providing flexibility, the system has pro- duced the IC seminar, the vigor of which in turn was absorbed and perpetuated by the University course. Throughout the scientific fields of study, basic theory, not application, is stressed. Many other colleges have fol- lowed Brown's lead, shifting from the idea of early specialization to emphasis on theoreti- cal analysis.

“

The most recent revision of Brown's curriculum indicates the administrations continuing awareness of the changing complex- ion of students in the University. Embodied in the new per- missive plan is a liberalization of the curriculum designed to accommodate all types of studentsthose students who enter Brown with definite ideas as to their major field of interest can begin concentration immediately. Those who are unsure may wait until their fifth semester to choose their major. The pro- gram will yield greater breadth for some and an enriched con- centration for others. In the changes of the curriculum over the years lies a vital part of the dynamics of Brown.
