As outstanding an addition to the faculty is Richard Henry Tawney, Britains lead- ing economic historian, who will conduct a course and give a series of public lectures. In the various articles of Mr. Hutchinis, all of which have claimed widespread public atten- tion, one gains a fairly accurate picture of his activities and sentiments regarding academic affairs. A comprehensive survey and discussion of the Federal support for education issue is the text of his article, llUncle Samls Children. In this treatment of a highly important problem, the President advocates the proposed increase in Federal appropriations, bearing in mind the pos- sibility of proportional increase in federal con- trol over education. Neither the question of government control nor of increased expendi- tures is as important, he concludes as llwhether we really mean what we say when we talk about equality of opportunity. This subject is further discussed in an article entitled, llYou,ll Have to Send your Boy to College? Here the President unequivocally ex- presses his belief that academic activity takes precedent over all else in the college experience, and that factors such as part-time jobs which deter the student from making study a full time job should be eliminated. To this end he recom- mends not only scholarships but public colleges for the lientire adolescent population until such time as it can get to work? Although these two articles contained ideas of great importance to any one interested in the future of American education, it was the Presi- dentls now famed article on Ten Cent Football, PRESIDENTS YEAR which gained the most applause and comment from the general reading public. thile the University assumes ever more respectable dimensions in the public eye and while the President continues to fight for educa tion, there is always opposition to his every move. We, lithe guinea pigs, do not say that Mr. Hutchins has all the answers, but we do know that under his plans we are learning a great deal and our education is certainly not stagnant.
