Newark, Del. —(U.P.)—Many persons outside the profession believe that college professors; with short classroom hours and summer vacations, lead a soft life. But "it's just not so," according to Dr. John A. Perkins, president of the University of Delaware.

In New York they visited a national seminar on the United Nations and toured the U.N. building, lower Manhattan, and Radio City Music hall. They also talked with U.N. delegates from France and Yugoslavia. Several of the students attended Easter church services and the Easter parade.
Net farm income in the United States in 1954 was 10 per cent below that of a year earlier.
Perkins admitted it's true that faculty members often teach only 15 hours a week, but that's only the beginning of their labors. For every lecture hour, the professor is expected to devote one or two additional hours each day to preparing a stimulating class presentation.
In addition, Perkins said, the professor spends an hour or two daily in counseling individual students. He also maintains regular office hours for faculty or student academic conferences.
