Dear Dean Ulmer: While I was back East I didn't have a chance to read these Kiplinger Letters and send them on to you, but I am sending them on today. You can read them and pass them on to Raymond Nichols, Dean Swarthout, and then let them come back to me in due times é Cordially yours, Director of Physical Bducation, PCA: AH Varsity Basketball Coach.

B.: Mrs. Hulteen told me I had better never get sick after my “pop off" regarding the physical condition to insure against illness. You are dead rights I will either die and pass out of the picture, or slip out of town. However, the last day of illness I have had was when Prosty Cox took my team against the University of Okla- homa here at Lewrence. That was when Milton was playing his first year on the varsity. And the only other time that I was 111 was when John Bunn took my team against Iowa State for one night. Both cases were flu and the old ticker had to be insured by a little rest. - Maybe my cycle is coming up again. Will you take my team? I am counting on you.

S, Allen Department of Physical Education My dear Dr. Allen: I am writing to urge that the men in charge of the required physical conditioning program be asked to make a very careful and immediate check on the enrollments of all those men who are substituting ROTC drill for a part of the physical educa-— tion requirement, Men who make this substitution must change their enrollments to O hours credit if they enrolled originally for one hour of credit, Will the men of your staff please see at once that they have a card from the office of the dean of the school concerned showing 0 oredit, which indicates that the stu- dent is enrolled in that way on our records here? Since this substitution of ROTC drill was allowed at the last minute, it will probably take a few days yet to get the class cards correct, and I am suggesting, therefore, that your in- structors retain their class cards a while longer until the ad-— justments can all be made, so that every card, when turned in to this office for our records and for the making of the class rolls, will show the enrollment of the student for one hour of credit or for 0 credit. It has been intimated in some quarters that requiring students to enroll for physical education wouldn't necessarily compel them to attend class. I hope we will not make a mockery of this regu— lation by being in the least careless about regular class atten- dance, and since nine deans might handle absence reports in nine different ways, I have told Chancellor Malott that in my judgment it would be best to report all absences very promptly each week to some central committee which would treat students from all schools alike, If the Chancellor has not already acted in this matter, may I suggest that you discuss the matter with him? It is my feeling that some such plan of central administration will be by far the best method of obtaining regular attendance in the first place and of handling a few students who may not care to play ball, Sincerely yours, VAL Paul B. Lawson, Dean PBL: dm COLLEGE COMMUNICATIONS NOTICE OF FACULTY MEETING The College Faculty will hold its Octo- ber meeting on Tuesday, the 20th, at 4:30 pem. in Fraser Chapel. All members are urged to be present to weloome the new members of the staff. INCREASING OUR TEACHING EFFICIENCY How about the job of making ourselves better teachers? Are we working at it, or are we subconsciously assuming that $4 doesn't need to be done? Aside from the recognizedly important and usually emphasized phases of our work, in which presumably all of us are watching ourselves and in which each of us is striving for improvement, may we mention two aspects of our work in which jnoreased attention would result in greater efficiency: 1. The mechanics of our work, This in- cludes such things as definite plans for each week's and for each day's work in each class, careful attention to all such details as those enumerated below, grad— ing papers promptly instead of weeks late, keeping each student thoroughly aware of his progress or the lack of it, careful observance of offioe hours in order to afford greater personal contacts with students, promptness and complete= ness in all reports, eto. 2, Our class presentation, Perhaps each of us should study more carefully his class room actions and speech, Students say that some professors need to take work in the Speech Department in order to be nble to present their work in a clear and interesting fashion, instead of "mumbling," Is your presentation good? As good as you can make it? DETAILS-~BUT IMPORTANT 1, Do you have a class card for every stu- dent, including auditors, who is attending your classes? Instructors are not privi- leged to allow students to attend their Glasses without class cards. : 2,.-If you have not already done sq, please return your class cards now to. the office of the dean of the school concerned. 3, No student should be considered with- drawn from your classes until you have re= ceived a withdrawal notice from the office. These notices are inveriably sent out with- in 24 hours of the time when the student receives permission for withdrawal. 4. Except in known cases of illness, please report promptly students who have been ab-— sent from class more than one week, If re- ported promptly we might be able to help the student; if reported tardily the stu- Ootober 17, 1942 dent simply has to be withdrawn from the course with a failure, Rightly of wrong~ ly, parents expect us to know that their young people are attending classes, and when they are not we are expected to let the parents. know about the matter. 5. Deficiency oards may be obtained from the departmental office, We would like to encourage their early and regular use in reporting to this office all students who are careless about class attendcans> or who for reasons good or bad are sim p4y not doing their work, The sooner we xneK a student is failing, the better chance we have of helping him. MI D—SEMESTER REPORTS Mid-semester reports are due in the office not later than Thursday, November 12, Wil! you please plan your quizzes so that your reports will be in on time? We have ote served that instructors who don't repox® on time usually have not taken the troubi- to plan their work far enough in advanos, Wee oS Oe "We are divided into two classes these days: the ones who are bewailing the con- dition of the world, and those who are doing something about it." * * &¢ &€ & The enrollment in the College as of Octc- ber 3 was 1869. This compares with an e1- rollment of 1940 at the corresponding Cate last year. This is a decrease of 3.°% in the College. The deorease in the Univer= sity as a whole is 6.%. Sh aS Se "When the crisis has passed, society will still neéd the soldier for the en- forcement of lew and the technician for the advancement of material progress, But above the need for each of them will be the indispensable necessity for the leader- ship of those whose training has been in the humanistic studies, From this leader- ship must come the vision, the perspective, the moral concepts, the aesthetic sense, the understanding of justice, the knowledg: of social institutions and organization that will render the victory significant for the human race. If the necessity, for the training for this leadership is lost sight of, if in the efforts for defense, that which is being defended is swallowed up and the means to the end becomes the end itself, then the toil, and perhaps the ultimate sacrifice, of the soldier wil? have been in vaines.ee"~-Professor Ruhi J, Bartlett, in The Tuftonian, September 24, 1942, Dean Paul 3, Lawson, ee ee Sis !

ACADEMIC STANDARDS IN WAR TIMES We hear much these days about speeding up our educational programs, With this pol-+ icy we are in hearty sympathy since, if properly done, it is an educational pol- icy not inconsistent with the best inter- ests of both students and the winning of the war, We should bear in mind, however, that war demands even better trained workers than are required in times of peace, for upon their skill, accuracy, and mastery even more now depends, In colle ge we must produce better workmen, just as the world outside of college walls is being called upon to do a better job than ever before, If we do this we must maintain high stand- ards of work and scholarship, if anything even higher standards than we have hither- to had, Fortunately, the government, the army, the navy, and the other agencies looking to us for trained men, are urg-= ing us not to lower our standards of April 17, 1942 achievement in the least, And it is significant that all the regional ac- crediting agencies have united in urg- ing all colleges not to lower the re- quirements for admission, and not to lower the requirements for graduation in either quantity or quality, THE LIBERAL AND HUMANE TRADITION “There can be little doubt that if the war continues as long as now seems prob= able there will be many drastic altera- tions in our colleges and universities, There can be little doubt also in the minds of those who have confidence in the future of this country that once the war is over our academic institu- tions will again thrive, Readjustments may be necessary in a post-war period, Indeed, some changes which have been long overdue may be forced upon the educational world, On balance, it seems to me that the period of stress and strain on which we are now entering will probably be beneficial to the academic world, Contrary to a view prevalent in certain quarters, universities are among the most conservative institutions in human history, An occasional jolt is thoroughly beneficial; it forces adapt- ations to new needs of society which have perhaps remained unrecognized, That at least is the evidence from the past, Taking a long-range view, there fore, we may be cheerful about the fu- ture of the university tradition in the United States," ~-James Bryant Conant, oe RS ee ae "But if the nation needs the technical expert today, it needs still more the mah of vision tomorrow, If the demo- cratic tradition is to be upheld and strengthened, if a new order of freedom is to be established after the present ay struggle is over, new leaders must be & developed, The colleges cannot evade % this task, even though it will make vast demands upon their resources, Stu- dents now are clamoring for training adequate to the times in which they live, for a deeper understanding of the forces at work in history, and a clearer vision of their duties as citizens in 4 democracy, When the work of the soldier and the technician has been accomplisheda, the world will require the genius of the builder and the oreator, The need of a ‘liberal education, sych as the colleges can give, was never wore urgent than at present,” : --"What the Colleges Are Doing,' SACL TL Liwqa ef ff BoA ,tasel oft oi tnomevotdos eos Isnagiget oft [fe tadt traoltiagtis bis ai Setfau svad astoneks galtisero ‘wot sft sowol of gom estjelfoo Ifs yat Ot tom base gucietimbs tot atnemoxicp at moitscbera Set Stnemetivgss edt sowol 32 yiitnesp edtte WOITIGAAT whan GWA JAAIGTI WHT eit tf tadt tdnob eltdvil sd aso stedT" =do%q amese wom es gaol as esunitace taw ~stotis olfasth yaam ed [Liw etedt aids seettiersvins bas eegelloo wo mi anoit * gat af oels tdwoh slttil od aso etedT at somehitaos sved odw seodt to ehaton sono tad# yatawos etdd to sivdut sdt -wtitect otmsbsos tuo tavo at tsw odt stnomt avt bso series? atieys Ifiw enoit qboiteq tewede0q as ai ytseascsa ad yom teed sved dotdw esgasdo smoe ,hoebaT edt moqy beotot of vem awhtere gaol amese Si ,oomeiad 0 ,blrow Ieaoitsoube bas eastte to beiteq sft tedt om oF iftw gaitstas won sta ow doidw wo atstte Skaebsos sft of [stottsaad ed yidsdotd at tasleverq weiv s of yrertaoD ,bitow Rooms ots aeittateviny ,exetisup aletrse al enoltut it ant evidayts exoo Feom od? ef tLot Lemofecooo nA ,ytoteld aamud ~tqshs aso1et ti ;istoitemed yidgvorodt _ floidw ytsioos to zhoon won of emotts ,besimgocevas berisamet eqaduiseq oved edd mowtt somebive sft at tesal ts tedT — oe ogtat-gaol s gaidet ,taaq tuods Lyttesds sd ysm ow , 807 edt rig re eit to ott. 2 oD taayt "gaedste betial ee Lieokadost sd¢ aheon molten aft ti tea” edt stom {ftte abeen ti ,yabot treqxe - momeb sdf 22.
