The panelist first elaborated
on the previous topics. After
which considerable discussion
took place as a result of many
stimulating points that were
brought out in their presenta
tions. The proceedings got un
derway with the quotation:
“Students and faculty must not
consider themselves to be in op
posite corners of an academic
boxing ring. They must fight
complacency togther.” With the
latter setting the stage, panel
ists brought out many impres
sive points from the 'book and
related them to our immediate
situation.
Many questions were asked
relative to the degree of “facul
ty-student relations'” on our
campus. One of the high points
of the discussion came with re
actions to a statement concern
ing the reference to students as
children rather than adults. It
was mentioned that there seems
to exist an unbalanced situation
in relations to the classroom-
campus attitude toward the stu
dent. Are students challenging
their instructor enough? Why
aren’t students serving on the
policy-making committees of the
institution, The latter question,
after being thrown about, gave
rise to a favorable statement
that might realize the accomp
lishment of that end.
It is the purpose of these diis-
- cushions to create the kind of
Education Faculty in
Community Services
Serving as speakers, discus
sion leaders, consultants, and
evaluators, members of Clark’s
Department of Education and
Psychology are continually pro
viding professional services for
educational institutions and or
ganizations in the Atlanta com-
muniy and in the State and re
gion. Services of this sort dur
ing the current semester include
the following:
'Dr. Pearlie 'C. Dove, associate
professor of education, present
ed the mairp address at the
A.iM.E. Youth Council of the
Atlanta Conference held at the
Cosmopolitan A. M. E. Church.
Her topic was “Facing the Fu
ture. 1 ’ She served as consultant
'for Career Clinics at Howard,
Archer and Washington High
Schools. At Atlanta University
she served as consultant for the
In-Service Conference of the
Atlanta Area- of the State Negro
In-Service Counselor Organiza
tion.
Chairman of the department,
Dr. Wiley S. Bolden, spoke on
“Group Dynamics: Its Meaning
Today” at the Atlanta’s Utopia
Literaty Club’s fall meeting. He
•was principal speaker at ’ the
opening session of the State
I Negro Counselors In-Service
Education Conference at Dub
lin sponsored by the Guidance
and Testing Service of the State
Department of Educaion. Dur
ing January and February, Dr.

mentary School he conducted a
discussion on “Meeting the Emo
tional Needs of Children.”
In addition to helping fulfil
the obligations of the college to
the community, these services
afford members of the Depart
ment of Education the oppor
tunity to make continuous ob
servations of some of the form
er students of the department,
talk with alumni, parents, and
prospective Clarkites, and de
monstrate community - minded
