How could a student form a philosophy of education out of traditionalism versus conventionalism, and then how could she decide where progressivism fitted into the picture? The picture! If only she could catch the vision of those shining little faces raised just eager for knowledge — grimy hands, sparkling eyes and tee-shirts hanging out over blue jeans! She, as a teacher of tomorrow, was to be a source of truth for those searching minds — the leaders of tomorrow. Judson A.
