The individual who studies the social sciences will find their uses unlimited. He will learn to understand and master his own personal desiresg he will develop self-knowledge and self-confidence, he will understand his fellowmen and learn to adjust his behavior to theirs, he will learn the wisdom of the old adage: Knowledge is power, knowledge of the world in which he lives, of its past, of its cultural heritage, of its eco- nomic framework, of its political institutions, knowl- edge of his own civilization on this earth. The Division of Social Science, Psychology, and Phi- losophy at Concord College introduces thestudent to disciplines which will enable him to gain this knowl- edge and understanding of the modern World. In the past, almost anyone could teach the Social Sciences. Today, the emphasis is on teachers who have proper and thorough training in their field. National, state, and local governmental agencies of- fer employment for trained Social Scientists in a wide variety of careers based on the diverse training of- fered here at Concord.
