To be acquainted with the civili- zation of the past and of the present, to knovv the nature of things and understand the sciences that have made man the master of the earth and sky, to instill an apprecia- tion of beauty in art - these qualify the possession of the liberally educated man. There are many theories as to the pur- pose of a college education. However, all will likely agree that college life should prepare the individual to participate as a responsible adult in the World in which he lives, and to go on with the task of self- understanding, self-government, and self- development in the life that now is and for the life that is to come. Students are advised not to specialize until after they have had two years of col- lege Work when they are best prepared to choose those studies particularly adopted to their needs.
