As I look back on education inthe 60's and pro- ject into the 7O's, I am reminded of the slogans we used and the slogans the educational community used when I was a student. But now as then, the problem is that they were slogans, just slogans. This problem suggests both the crisis of education today and the tremendous opportunity for creative and innovative revists to education - revists, the results of which could make today's various and sundry indictments of irrelevancy unfounded. In predominantly Black institutions where the major problem now is survival as substantive and symbolic institutions, the opportunity seems brightest. The traditional problems of academic defensibility and symbolic legitimacy should no longer be the pre- occupation of Black institutions. Instead, the work of codification and formal presentation of models already devel- oped becomes a critical responsibility which Black institutions must indubitably meet. Therefore, we should move forward, unafraid to tread the unfamiliar waters of leadership in education in this country, finally realizing that our dues have been paid, and knowing that the returns on this investment are now long over-due. Joe L. Smith, Director of Consortium. Grant me greening to outpace my graying or I shall not have a tree-life. I shall be single-seasoned. Grant me flaming to undo my freezing or I shall not have a flower-life. I shall go bloom-barren. Grant me surging . to upset my still-standing g I or I shall not have a river-life. ' I I shall live pool-stagnant. Grant me loving to overflow my loathing or I shall not have a rain-life. I shall die dust-drenched. - Electa Wiley Published in Encore ,M I believe that a 'good' teacher is one who is knowing, and tells only for clarification, one who wants the student to compete with himself, to hang loose and get high from his own growing insight, to use every class as a happening to enlarge his perceptibility, and to expend thought and action toward proficiency in what, hopefully, will be a lucrative career.
