Div! im iff ffumauifie Training in the humanities as part of liberal arts is most practical. lt is the fundamental on which all spe- cialization should be based. J. H. H. DEAN J. HOWARD HILL Director ot Humanities A. B., indiana University, l925 M. S., Indiana University, l930 Graduate study--Columbia University Northwestern and Iowa Universities The humanities lead everywhere 1n that they lead into every useful walk of life, into every type of gainful em- ployment. The humanities are interested in the student as Well as the subjects and in opening up for the student the means by which more learning may be acquired. The humanities want to help people become all they are capable of being. They want the student to learn the techniques of knowing and what are the roots of truth and how he may acquire understanding and wisdom. They are interested in values, meanings, and the ca- pacity ofthe student to make distinctions and to form discriminating judgements. They want to develop the capacity for conviction and to stimulate him if possible to dedicate himself to the highest good he knows.
