The inTegraTed Wri+ing series is perhaps unique in iTs simple, eTTecTive approach To improving criTical and creaTive wriTing. Each year also uses a liTeraTure TexTboolc, which sTresses hisfarical and sociolog- ical developmenT, wiTh discussions oT represenTaTive worlcs Trom every period of BriTish and American liTeraTure. To supplemenr This, There was inTroduced Three years ago a poclceTboolc program. From an experimenT, iT has become, aTTer Two overwhelmingly Tavorable sTudenT polls, an insTiTuTion. WiTh Their handy TormaTs and inexhausTible varieTy, poclceT boolcs more Than anyThing else have made The wriTTen word popular wiTh lgnaTians. BuT iT is noT enough To loe proTicienT only in wriTing one's language. SiTu- aTions will arise where The spolcen word is oT inTiniTely more value Than The wriTTen. ST. lgna'l'ius wanTs To gracluaTe leaders capable of Thinking on Their TeeT and Tulfilling such a need. To This end iT has made cumpulsory a Tour- year oral English course co-ordinaTed wiTh The WriTing series. This is noT iusT 'a TexTboolc course in The Theory of speech habiTs. Every lgnaTian has many Times sTiTled buTTerTlies and emoTions before his suddenly awesome class- maTes To gain The experience which is The only door To verbal eTTecTiveness. Mr. C. E.
