Money, Manners? They're Both Here
Why go to school? Why spend four or more years of your life batting your brains out in the learning process? What is the purpose of college? $ ^{4} $
These questions, not constantly on the average student's mind, are asked once in a while. Interviews with students and faculty members indicate the reasons for attending college may be assembled under two headings—vocational and cultural.
Dean Kenneth E. Anderson of the School of Education, said cultural and social adjustment for students was the primary goal of a university education.
"The goal of the university could be said to be to develop a well-educated person in terms of his place as an intelligent citizen who has some cultural understanding of the world about him," he said.
"And, of course, the vocational training purpose is an important secondary factor."
What the student considers his purpose in being educated may follow the university's purpose.
Miss Emily Taylor, dean of women said the purposes may not be so well defined in the minds of the student, but they are there.
"They mix the vocational and cultural aspects together instead of separating them as professional educators do. The two things go very well together."
E. Gordon Collister, professor of education and director of the Bureau of Guidance, said there seems to be a trend among students toward the broad cultural education.
"The student seems to be interested in more than his own vocational field."
Students interviewed were evenly divided among cultural, social and a combination of both reasons when

California Co. Gives Award To Student
Stuart Grossman, Fall River, Mass graduate student, has been awarded the California Fellowship for 1958-59, Frank C. Foley, chairman of the geology department, said today. The fellowship provides $1,500 and fee and is awarded to a geology graduate student. The fellowship also includes $750 for department use which will be used primarily for research.
Underground diggings at International Nickel's mines in Ontario totals 410 miles, more than the route between New York City and Toronto.
Some of the comments are:
asked why they were seeking a college education.
Jay Kriss, Colby sophomore — "I came here for a vocational education. But, social and cultural matters do enter into it. You definitely have to take your place in society as more than a money-carning machine."
Larry Thorne, Coffeyville junior "Very frankly, I am here for vocational and financial reasons. I am in the Engineering School."
Mary Beth Noyes, Troy senior — "I think the cultural and social points are important. A university is probably the only place where you can combine a cultural education with a practical vocational education."

Freshman Is Finalist For Miss Kansas City
Marjorie A. Critten, Kansas City, Mo. freshman and one of the 12 finalists for the Miss Kansas City title, was "surprised" when she was asked to enter the contest in March. She was "very surprised" to be a finalist. But she was "terribly surprised" three years ago—when she was first asked to enter.
Miss Critten received the first entry blank from the Kansas City, Mo. Junior Chamber of Commerce, contest sponsor, when she was a junior at Southwest High School in Kansas City. When she was a senior she got another letter from the sponsors. Both years she wasn't eligible because she wasn't 18.
She didn't decide to enter this year until she had talked to a contest representative in person. He convinced her that contestants wouldn't be judged on beauty only, but also on talent, personality and speaking ability.
The pageant to choose Miss Kansas City will be May 17. Finalist will be judged in formalms and in swimming suits and on a three-minute
talent routine. Miss Critten will do a tap dance.
The winner will receive prizes and merchandise from Kansas City. Mo. businesses and will compete for the Miss Missouri title in June. Miss Missouri will compete with other state title winners in the Miss America contest.
Although Miss Critten, an elementary education major, was "surprised" she was not unfamiliar with beauty contests. During high school she was a princess at the Kansas City Auto show, queen of the ROTC dance, and an attendant to Miss Prom in a contest sponsored by a Kansas City magazine about high school activities.
At KU she was the first attendant to the Military Ball queen and a candidate for the lawyers' queen.
