As the Towe1' clock ticks away the minutes of each day, in what ways do the students of Stout move toward the goals wluch are, or ought to be, theirs during their years m college? During the four years of study at The Stout Institute, students acquire skills and training in the fields of Industrial Education and of Home Economics. WVoodrow Wilson said, concerning this type of education: There should be technical schools, a great many, and the technical schools of America should be among the best i11 the world. The men they train are indispensable. But the technical schools must have seine thought. of mastery and adaptability in their processes . The maste1'y of skills is the primary function of The Stout Institute. But the true aim of education should not be obscured under the mastery of technical skills. College life should stimulate a deep intellectual, a spiritual growth, it should develop the whole individual. To any student, college should open new fields of interest, not confine him to one or two. Accordingly, the teachers at Stout not only aid their students in the acquisition of manual skills, but, even more, they direct them along paths of learning. The Stout Institute of to-day is a liberal arts college, as well as a technical school, training its students intellectually and aesthetically. The teachers open to the students opportunities in social, musical, artistic, literary, and spiritual fields which, superimposed on the development of skills, enrich the life of the uricilergraduates. To prepare the student's mind rather than his hands for a job - any job - which awaits him is the primary task of the college professor, for this modern world needs not only teclmically trained men and women, but also men and women who possess initiative, self-reliance, reliability. The Stout student is engaged not necessarily in an Indust1'ial Arts or in an Home Economics course, but in a life course which is molding him intellectually, aesthetically, and spiritually to become a master among men.
