ADULT EDUCATION AND DR. HOECHST Dr. Coit R. Hoechst, Director of the Department of Extension Education in the Pittsburgh Public Schools, has done much to make Schenley Evening School what it now is. At first the curriculum of Schenley consisted almost entirely of commercial studies, later aca- demic subiects were added, in the last few years music and art appre- ciation have also been offered. Now plans are being made to open classes in drawing, including the study of color, harmony of design, and the use of pencil and brush. Dr. Hoechst's modesty does not permit him to take credit for so enriched a program of studies, but we as students know it is largely due to his efforts and vision that Schenley Evening School offers such varied courses. Dr. Hoechst, who just bubbles over with enthusiasm, is quick, energetic, humorous, appreciative, verstile and sympathetic. This lin- guist of Pennsylvania Dutch ancestry has a foundation of Latin and Greek, speaks both French and German, and reads Italian, Spanish and Russian. His enthusiasm and versatility are revealed in the many different hobbies he has pursued. Radio-making was one of his first interests, later he took up engrossing and lettered the diplomas for many schools and colleges including the University of Pittsburgh and Carnegie Institute of Technology. For some time his leisure hours have been spent in violin-making. This clever instrument maker, who is now putting the finishing touches on a bass viol, also plays the piano, organ, cello and harp. When he is away from his busy office and not absorbed by some other activity we may Hnd him engaged in his newest hobby, amateur photography. Dr. Hoechst believes such varied interests play a vital part in enriching an idividual's life. Some may classify hobbies as mere diversion, but this educator calls them recreation. This is his analysis of a hobby: It must be a real recreation, a spiritual rejuvenation, something that you can give yourself to devotedly and with enthusiasm, it must come to you-you do not hunt for it Clike love, it comes without seekingD, it must be dropped when you lose interest in it, for it has ful- Hlled its purpose, it must be strictly limited to non- work-a-day hours, and it must be something of a social constructive nature. Through this understanding of the adult's needs and through a conscious desire to improve and broaden the scope of adult education, 8
