THE MICHIGAN DAILY
TOR FROM ENGLAND:
mnus Calls U.S. Teachers 'Aware'
Prof. Lloyd,
I
nerican professor is more
'the world outside the
than most of his Euro-
iterparts, writes a former
y graduate student.
I Millgate, an English-
n Cowes, Isle of Wight,
iching fellow at the Uni-
1956-57, has recorded his
ns of the American
Engineer,
Succumbs
teaching scene in the current issue
of the "Michigan Alumnus Quar-
terly Review."
"I have a great admiration for
the university teacher of the pres-
ent day," Millgate wrote. "He
works extremely hard and takes a
great interest in his pupils. He is
likely to be liberal and cultured ...
!
"Most of the teachers I met .. .
seemed worthy to be judged by the
highest standards, both profession-
ally and personally. There were
poor lecturers *among them, but
few who were deliberately bad,
contemptuous of their work and,
of their students.
"Senior members of the faculty
rarely regarded their years of
teaching and scholarship as justi-
fication forpomposity, intolerance,
or inactivity. In some of the youn-
ger instructors and teaching fel-
lows I sensed a completeness, a
quiet poise, that went beyond any-
thing I had seen in Englishmen of
comparable age."
The American university teacher
is a special kind of person, Mill-
gate doted.
"It would be disastrous if he
were to be swamped by an influx
into the universities of great num-
bers of less able and less dedicated
men, or if he were forced to be-
come just another "Organization
Man."
"His task is already difficult
enough. The classes are so big, and
the pressures of the non-academic
world are so great, that he is rarely
able to make a very profound or
permanent impression upon his
students.
Millgate is now a-teacher at the
University of Leeds.
Students Plan
Study Abroad

been accepted by the Institute of
European Studies for a year of.
study at the University of Vienna.

paratory school at. King William's
College on the Isle of Man, and at

ville and Caus College, Cambridge
