SLOSSON FINDS OPPORTUNITIES FOR COSMOPOLITA N EDUCA TION HERE; I Opportunities for cosmopolitan edu- cation at the University are the out- standing features of interest here as seen by Edwin E. Slosson, author of "Creative Che~mistry" and editor of the Science Service, of Washington, D. C., who is visiting Ann Arbor for a few, days. "It is an old saying," according to Dr. Slosson, "that a stu- dent learns more from his classmates than he does from the professors. If there is any truth in that, the Michi- gan student has the best corps of in- structors of any educational institu- tion in the country." Dr. Slosson, who is on a lecture tour for the Science Service, has visited Ann Arbor before, in the capacity of a guest lecturer in the journalism de- partment, then under Prof. F. N. Scott. At that time Dr. Slosson was on the faculty of the Columbia univer- sity school of journalism. Dr. Slosson attended a seminar con- ducted by his son, Prof. Preston W. Slosson of the history department. "I had the luck," he said, "to hear a discussion of the 'rights of minorities' clause in the League of Nations coven- ant led by a Chinese woman studen~t, who gave her talk in excellent English and with evident familiarity with the subject." "Your great President Angell, who. was himself a great diplomatist, made the University foremost in the field of international affairs, and I am glad to see the the University is keeping its lead in that field," he continued. "Education," in Dr. Slosson's opin- ion, "should mean a broadening of interests and contacts, but unfortuna- tely some colleges have the opposite effect in that the student is kept strictly confined for four years to the intimate and exclusive association with a selected group of his own nationality, type of mind, and social class. In the University of Michigan on the contrary, the student is brought into contact with representatives of -all races, creeds, classes, and nation- alities." "The student here can become broad," Dr. Slosson continued, "if he will improve his opportunities, take MAKE RESERVATIONS NOW EUROPE, ORIENT OR ANYWHERE ; LIESHIP .. ANYILTAS I TRAVELERS CHEQUES.

He can get their point of view and an understanding of their racial characteristics as he could not get from books or even from ordinary; tourist travel." "A student at the University can take a course in the living geography of the whole world, because he can I find here representatives probably of every important division of the globe," he stated. Dr. Slosson lamented the fact that! "Probably students do not realize or take advantage of the unique opportu-j nities of a cosmopolitan university as1 compared with a restricted class col- lege. The hundreds of Chinese stu- dents, for example, who have been' educated at the University will have a better understanding of the character and intentions of the American peo- ple, and can act as our interpreters in the Far East." Dr. Slosson's present tour is one of a number he has made recently for the Sicence Service, of which he has been the head since 1921. This or- ganization was founded at that time for the purpose of spreading informia- tion on the natural sciences through every possible means, newspapers, magazines, lectures, radio, and its own group of publications which it syndi- cates throughout the country.
