The annual report of the Director of University Extension states that this university, with num- te hers probably the largest in the world, and constantly increased through ex- tension courses given by teachers in nearly two thousand extramural cen- ters, is not satisfied to reach only f those within sound of the spoken word. Undoubtedly the range of such extension work will soon be vastly increased by the use of the radio the teacher being heard but not seen. But Columbia desires to go further and offer opportunities for home study, insisting, however, upon a plan "consistent with the traditions of the university." "Fabulous sums," .it is said in this report, are made by institutionp or- ganized on a purefy business basis, because of the eagerness of American youth for higher education. This eagerness is not generally, however, for pure instruction. It is known iu. that, for the most part, the desire is for something that will be immedi- ately iseUI; and even when it does look toward something beyond the ultilitarian, it is toward credit for an ell academic degree. In other wordis, there appears to be very little home study work which has for its object simply adding to general knowledge. The problem is to make all such correspondence and courses at home primarily educational carrying the "culturad" and the practical along to- gether, and giving some recognition through examinations to those who complete such studies. A beginning at has been made in a series of busi- ness courses, which may be made educational as well as practically val- er. uable, if only taught in the right way. But however highly developed the instruction becomes and what- ever its content and scope, there is no royal road for the student. He must himself study. The voice of the teacher may b$ extended far beyond university walls without his leaving his desk or his laboratory table. But the student wA still have to pore over the printed word. Together, the extension of the teacher's voice and home study may solve some of the problems of the overcrowding of uni- as- versities and colleges.
