section. The other three are not pri-
marily lecture courses, but on account
of the great number of students, the3
class room work has Dad to take thisj
form.
Thus every course is a lecture
course and this program is not an
unusual one in any way. This method
of education is prescriptive, is not in
accord with modern educational meth-
ods and is not stimulating to the stu-
dent.;
Would it not be possib'e to, in some
way, limit the number of students for
instance in the English classes so
that there might be some opportunity
for discussion and questions?

OUR SMALL TOWN MINDS
(Daily Iowan)
The American college student, to
put it bluntly, has a smaf I town mind.
His interests are centered in his own
little environment; his mind is typi-
cally "Home Town". This is not a re-
flection of American colleges but 'rath-
er upon American people in general.
A college can only mirror the society
which creates it, and a small town is
no more peculiar to the average col-
lege student than to the ordinary
American citizen.
The reason for the apparent nar-
rowness probably arises in the fact
that America ,y a nation is too sef~f-
sufficient. Necessity has never com-
pelled us, except at rare occasions, to
think nationally, much less interna-
tionally. A noted University presi-
dent in a recent speech told of visiting
a group of Oxford students while the
Washington conference on the' limi-'
tation of arms was in session. He
asked casually what their views were
and the group with great eagerness dis-
cussed the problem from every angle
and with a thoroughness that was

surprising. Soon afterward the col-
lege president brought up the same
question among a group of students
at one of our own .great institutions
of learning. With characteristic Amer-
ican frankness they admitted they not
only knew littbe of the conference but
had no views on the problem them-
selves. This represents in a fair way
the difference between the American
student and the European in this one
respect. Naturally Americans excell in
many other important fields, but cer-
tainly not in this one.
In-a talk some months ago by Rabbi
Wise, America was accused of a "sense
of triviality," of an entire failure to
grasp what democracy means. "Amer-
ica takes neither a tragic nor a comic
E view of the universe-it takes no view
at all," said the rabbi. "This is mani-
fest in its conception of democracy,
which it considers as a political diver-
sion rather than a collective dedica-
tion to a high end." William Allen
White has even charged that Kansas
cares only for Kansas which is not
only true of Kansas probably but of
every other state.
Can there be any doubt that if we
remain a nation of small towners in
mind we shall never be a real nation?
If we cannot look objectively at
America, if we cannot visualize our
country; if we cannot see it as a uni-
ty, then we must surely admit that
America is too big for us.
