THE TIE THAT BINDS, the common brotherhood of edu- cated men, the fraternity of in- telligence, has not been lost by the introduction into colleges of a wide and varied curriculum. In earlier days all college graduates had taken the same subjects; all had studied the classics and moral philosophy. The classic allu- sions in the orations of Burke and Webster were understood by their readers. Milton ' s work on freedom of the press he called the Areopagitica — a word understood then but not used now. Science has supplanted the classics and some feel that college men no longer possess the unit} ' of the former generation. Today there are technical, vocational, and professional colleges, and inde- pendent schools in the same college or university. The students in one school may never come to I o( ii V. i iir Sim s, Ph. I )., LI. I) President COMMUNE VINCULUM know the students and teachers in the other schools. Neverthe- less, there still remains a unity on a different basis. The scientific method of approach to all prob- lems furnishes the common bond. Research, in- vestigation, observation, fact-finding, and inter- pretation make up the procedure of the educated modern. The result of this scientific method is that the sciences continually undergo changes, that most of our so-called history has to be re- written, that economic and governmental ma- chinery demands revision, and that even so con- servative a subject as Theology must be revised. The scientific method of investigation is the com- mune vinculum that unites all scholars today and supplies the common method of attacking all problems.

■ - Jam lis Corcor FIFTY YEARS AGO Clemson Business College existed only in the mind of Thomas G. Clemson, a pio- neer in that growing group of men who believed that the time was .it hand when the colleges should prepare the youth of the nation to take their places in what was then thought to be a rapidly changing era. There had come into being a new spirit in the policy and purposes of education. Science, a kind of poor relation in the hierarchy, was knocking loudly at the doors of the cathedrals of education where it received no enthusiastic wel- come because some of its early findings had cast into the rubbish heap ancient and respectable tr.uli tions. This new type of education has played a AN LlTTI I JOHN Manager leading role in the greatest agri- cultural and industrial develop- ment recorded in history. What is fifty years, or even a hundred years, in the lite of a nation or the development of a great educational institution? Those who have wit- nessed the passing tread of Clemson men testify that the long line has marched out into the state, the nation and the world to put into practice the new principles founded upon the study of the sciences. Just so will the line of march continue and each year new contributions be made for the purpose of keeping knowledge at work for the im- provement of that great mass of citizenry who live by the soil or the shop and without whose wel fare- real self government cannot endure lor long.
