vinced that subject matter divisions
should be made, if made at all, upon
a hOrizontal plane with investiga-,

leveled at existing educational prac-
tices and to appraise current de-
mands, educational leadership will
pass from the liberal arts colleges
to far less responsible groups.
Thus did Prof. Harold M. Dorr ofj
the political science department cau-
tion , a meeting of educators at a
luncheon given yesterday in con-
junction with the annual conven-
tion of the Michigan Academy of Sci-

Dorr commented, "The student
should be granted far greater oppor-
tunities to participate both in the
organization and development of spe-
cific courses." Beyond this, he added,I
