Educational Stress Must Be Controlled
An educator of international prominence said yesterday that stress and strain is natural in education, but should be controlled and utilized for the best results.
Dr. Everett C. Hughes, professor of sociology at the University of Chicago, is giving a series of lectures here this week on "Stress and Strain in Teaching and Learning."

"There will always be strain between faculty members and students because groups of people cannot get along any other way.
"The educational process is one of inter-reaction between human beings. We all have to conform willingly to laws and rules, but obedience can go to an extreme." Prof. Hughes said.
Much of the friction and unhappiness occurs because the student is not sure of his purpose in the educational system, he commented.
"The purpose of a person's education is clear only when it is fully accepted in his mind. There can be no doubt or uncertainty," he said.
Dr. Hughes and his colleagues recently made a study on the relationship between faculty members and students at the KU Medical Center.
"There is little stress or strain in the medical school because the students all realize their purpose at the school and definitely want their medical education." he said.
"The main difference between
professional school, such as the medical school, and a general university is that the teachers and the students have common goals and hopes at a professional school. They always look forward to the day when they will be colleagues.
"The medical school is smaller than the university and has a homogeneous group of students. They all have a common goal," he said.
Dr. Hughes said that his group looks for the actual everyday relationships in its study, not ideal conditions.
"Only a little of the inter-reaction between the faculty members and the students meets the eye. People don't always want to reveal their true feelings, so you have to try to microscope little under-the-surface characteristics," he said.
"We have watched the students more carefully than the faculty members in our surveys. Most studies of organizations proceed from the notion that what is best for the people in charge, the administrators, is best for the whole group.
"This is not always right. Every level of conformity must be accounted for in an organization," he said.

Fessler Gets Ford Fellowship to Harvard
Max E. Fessler, professor of business administration, has been granted a Ford Foundation fellowship to participate in the Institute of Basic Mathematics for Application to Business, at Harvard University in September.
The one-year institute will study mathematical, statistical and computer methods developed in the last few years, and their application to business decision problems through scientific programming and research activities.

The University's main traffic problem is what to do with the 6,000 automobiles that clog Jayhawk Blvd. and the parking lots.
Which car is scorned in traffic more than any other make? It is not one of the small foreign "bugs," but the American-made Ford.
A poll was taken by the Daily Kansan to determine what make car the average KU student drives. The Ford was the number one car. The nearest competitor was Chevrolet.
Foreign students: Any KU foreign student who does not have plans for the Easter vacation and who would like to spend part of that time in a Kansas community should see the Foreign Student Adviser, 228 Strong.
