rTi To all of those who are Swarthmore Col- lege, this book is respectfully dedicated. It is so dedicated with unspoken praise and with a word of caution. To the Alumnae ... we shall soon be you, and there is no difference between us. To the Administration that the least of the reasons we come to Swarthmore is to sleep in your dorms, eat in your dinng rooms and live by your regulations . . . that rules and regulations are made to help people live together, not to hinder them . . . and that a frank admission is to be preferred to soft words. To the Faculty . . . that your part of the college lies far beyond your class rooms . . . that we come here unlearned, but we do so in order that we may learn . . . that freedom of education means equal opportunity, and judgment solely upon merit. To the Students that you are here for the development of the mind, and of the inner self, rather than of the ego . . . that no group has the right to take it upon itself — unbid- den — to say how others shall live and act . . . that the engineer with his road and the scien- tist with his experiment, each have a respon- sibility as to their destination or use, and he cannot claim an occupational deferment from the world around him . . . that apathy is one of the greatest enemies . . . and that time is not standing still while we prepare for the future, and our lives now are no less im- portant than what is to come. .

A PHILOSOPHY 01 ' EDUCATIOX She ' s a rum ' un is Education, to paraphrase Mr. Squeers in Nicholas Nickleby, . . . more easier concei ed than described. Certainly no one des- cription would fit the philosophies and programs this country offers its students, and no one statement ivill do justice to the educational ideals of Swarthmore College, or reflect the differences of opinion of those whose business it is to formulate and execute the program. Three propositions, howe er. summarize
