The last seventeen years of her career have been done in the field of social science. When asked for her philosophy of life, Mrs. Robin- son gave this reply: When an individual be- comes self-satisfied with his knowledge, learning ceases and growth is blocked. Growth is fundamental for good teaching. Mrs. Robinson's plans for the future in- clude the growth she mentioned, for she plans to do the traveling she has looked forward to for so long. As she goes out to continue her very interesting life, we of Douglass say, Bon Voyage.
