Quality Instead of Quantity in Education Phi Kappa Winner
Is Needed, Says Haverford President Of Annual Debate
Haverford, Penn.—Voicing a sharp
criticism of Institutions of higher
learning which allow themselves to
he over-run “not with scholars, hut
with amiable bipods," and which
teach undergraduates in "droves”
instead of individually, Dr. William
A. Comfort, president of Haverford
college, announced the new educa
tional and athletic program of the
college at the centenary convention
ceremonies this week.
Speaking before a gathering of over
a thousand alumni, parents of stu
dents and friends of the college, Dr.
Comfort, President A. Lawrence
Lowell, of Harvard, and President
Thomas S. Gates, of Pennsylvania,
discussed the present educational
system In America and its relation
to Haverford’s new program of ac
tivity. The three convocation
speeches were broadcast over a Co
lumbia radio hook-up of thirty sta
tions in all parts of the country.
Quality, not Quantity
"We believe,” Dr. Comfort said,
"that the country needs an exhibit
of quality rather than quantity in
education, and it Is in keeping with
Haverford’s traditions and destiny
to make our contribution by bring
ing the best educational forces to
bear upon a small number of care
fully selected students. Haverford
is in an almost unique position to
create an exhibit of national signific
ance. Its past accomplishment. Its
resources, Its established patronage.
Its geographical position, its strictly
limited ambition combine to give
color to our hope.
“We have based our Centenary
program, which I am about to an
nounce, on the best judgment of our
own faculty nnd on the advice of
some thirty educators at other in
stitutions who were sufficiently inter
ested in Haverford of the past and
present to desire to help in the
formulation of our future plans.
Selective Process
“Most boys have sufficient brains
to do the college work we are plan
ning for them, if they are Interested
In intellectual task. We propose to
employ every reasonable means to
detect those who have the ability,
the ambition and the character to
make useful men. The breed of col
lege men can be improved by the
selective process. We are not seek
ing for Intellectual prodigies at the
age of eighteen, but for well balanced
youths who have some idea of what
they want and are willing to work
for it.
GRAND OPERA SEASON
WILL BE HELD IN JULY
(Continued from page 1)
a former singer of the Chicago and
Charlottenburg, Berlin, Opera com
panies; Glen Crowder Stables, John
Barker, and Dimitri Onofrle have all
taken art in previous performances
here.
New Names
Ethel Fox. of San Carlo, Havana,
and Detroit Opera companies: How
ard Laramy, of the American Opera
comany: Kurtis Brownell, leading
tenor of the Little Theater Opera
company of New York; Leola Brad
ley, and Isabelle Terrell are among
the new names in this years casts.
Lucile Marsh will be director of
dances, Emil B. Michaelis will be
chief of orchestra, and Corinne Wol-
erson will be repetitur.
Refreshments were served during
the election and following the meet
ing the members were treated to a
theater party by the new officers.
"During the freshman year a per
sonal adviser will assist in making
an Individual program after learning
the candidates’ general intentions.
Before the end of that year he should
choose the general field for his major
concentration and throughout Ithe
sophomore year one professor in the
division of his chosen major group
should guide him in developing
scholarly interests and habits.
Offer (’onfcrence Courses
"Throughout the Junior and senior
years we propose to provide in the
major fields facilities for all stu
dents equal to those usually offered
elsewhere only to honor students.”
Under a plan of this sort it is neces
sary, Dr. Comfort explained, to offer
a large number of conference courses,
comprising but five students each,
in all departments and provide that
the major supervisor suggest supple
mentary study or elementary re
search under his guidance and ex
posed to the comment and criticism
of his fellow-students.
“Of eighteen courses required for
graduation, only one, English, is re
quired of all; six courses will be
taken in the group of one's major
concentration; six others must be so
distributed as to insure a general ac
quaintance with subjects in the other
three groups; five courses are com
pletely free electives.
Novelty of Finn
"The novelty of our plan is that
while offering opportunities through
distribution for a liberal education,
we shall in future insure a certain
mastery of one field, with all stu
dents treated as potential honors
men. If any discipline is lost through
the elimination of required courses,
we count on recapturing it in the
stricter accounting to which the stu
dent will be held in the field of his
own choice. We do not seek to pro
duce Intellectual prigs, but to Imbue
our students with more solid doc
trines.
I’hyslcal Development
"The physical development of our
youth must receive careful provision.
Our program of athletics is an in
tegral part of our educational pro
gram. We wish every student in
college to be engaged in three sports,
which we may describe for him as
a major and two minor sports. One
of these should be a sport in which
he can continue to engage in mature
life, such as tennis, golf, cricket, or
swimming.”
