To sip sherry with a small ring

By MARY PITMAN Kansan Staff Writer
If the Pearson Integrated Humanities Program, with which NICAT has achieved such an ideal, it has nevertheless provided some students with a rigorous dreggioates with a rigorous curriculum and strong sense of intellectual camaraderie, usually associated with only small groups.
Students in the two-year Pearson Program, which satisfies all freshman-sophomore humanities requirements except for foreign language, must ten poems each semester.
Dennis Quinn, dean of Pearson College and director of the program, mimicked some who work with the required memorizations.
Pearson Unites Humanities
But he explained that the Pearson faculty, consisting of Rick Nickel and John Senior, professor of history, emphasized to Pearson scholars the value of developing a keen memory. Students in the college must be permitted to take notes in class. The prohibition on notes intensifies the thinking and conduction of the students. Quinn said.
'Aw gee, memorizing poetry! That's a drag!" Quinn said.
A graduate student, who acts, in Quinn's words, as "a kind of minstrel." conducts the poetry memorization sessions.
"The poetry sessions generate a lot of esprit de corps," Quinn said.
In conjunction with poetry, the students last semester frequently looked at stars and learned constellations and the legends them. Star-gazing will also be included in the fall poetry sessions.
Students learn about the stars "on a poetic level," Quinn said, much as the Greeks did thousands of years ago.
In the first semester of the program, Pearson students intensively study Greek works. His father, Homer, Plato and Herodotus.
also the books, Quinn said.
He explained that secondary works diverted the attention of students from the classics.
about the books." Quinn said.
All Pearson scholars assemble twice a week for tandem lectures from the three professors. In addition, students meet in small groups to memorize poetry, discuss the lectures and learn rhetoric.
Curriculum in the three following semesters is based on a central curriculum for the Testament, various medieval classics and in the final semester of the program modern works. The curriculum Goethe, Freud and Marx.
The program is rigorous and small. Quinn said that 200 freshmen and sophomores would be offered a class of more students than ever before.
Latin may at some future point be a requirement for students in the program and they are now strongly encouraged to take it.
The interview works two ways. Quinn said, for the freshmen also prospective professors. In an earlier conducted Friday, the four applicants seen a bit stumped by the rapid-fire exchange between the students and choice of topics ranged from the north star to author J.D Salinger—considered by all three to be unimportant—to the fact that they were hardworking professors.
Still, all applicants cannot be accepted into the program. Quinn, Nickel and Senior are selected with prospectus, freshmen
Asked in the interview why he had come to college, one freshman answered, "To study my interests."
According to the three Pearson professors, this is a widespread and fallacious orientation toward study.
Quinn quoted Aristole as saying that man by nature deserves the job he explained to the applicant, a person can know that he deserved to know what was important.
"We don't want them reading
is that he desires to know. Hence,
to pursue one's interests in
college is too narrow a course of
study.
Students of diverse backgrounds and students with a variety of future plans including medical care and careers—are gladly welcomed into the program Quinn said. He was not for only honors students.
Quinn said that honors students often did poorly in the program and disliked it because they were too grade-oriented.
The interviews seem geared to people who talk easily in a group. They often ask about shyness in an applicant did not make a poor impression on the professors if the applicant was carefully listening to the conference.
Quinn said that he liked "to have some people in the program who are kind of quiet and bewildered by it all."
Some students in the program have liked it so well that they have "improvised" majors in the humanities, Quinn said.
He wishes that the program could be extended into the full range of possibilities, so nothing is impossible at this point, he thought, because of the "practical difficulty of getting university to tolerate such a thing."
Quinn explained that the chief obstacle to a four year program would be the number of additional faculty needed.
The status of the Pearson Institute's Humanities Program with the Computer Science Department is uncertain, in a sense, because the program has not yet received the full permissive approval. It has, however, been approved for a period of two years,
which ensures that all entering freshmen will be able to complete the program.
Asked about charges that the program was oriented toward the Catholic religion, Quinn said. When people begin attacking the case as having some religious emphasis, that's just big emphasis.

Pharmacists Offered Course In Orientation
A new course to be added to the curriculum of the School of Pharmacy this fall is a two-hour credit orientation course.
Howard Mossberg, dean of the School of Pahrimacy, said the week each week of lecture, one hour orient the students to the pharmacy practice. The students will attend a Watkins Hospital for observation.
The second hour will be a unique self-study in math calculations peculiar to pharmacy, Mossberg added.
An 86-page self-study manual was prepared for student use by Linden Baum, associate professor of pharmacy, Wesley Snyder, associate professor of pharmacy, and Mossberg. Seven hours of audio cassettes have also been prepared for the course and are housed in the science library.
