KATE STEPHENS
VISITING SISTER AND FRIENDS AT UNIVERSITY.
Was Greek Instructor in '78—Sees Changes in School-K. U. Is Place to Send Boy.
Miss Kate Stephens, 75, a writer and editor of books in New York City, is making an extended visit in the city with her sister, Mrs. J. W. Green, and other friends. For several years Miss Stephens was a member of the University of Kansas faculty. She was assistant instructor in Latin and Greek in 1878, and from 1879 to 1885 she had the chair of Greek which was created for her. Miss Stevens maintains an active interest in University affairs and in speaking to a Kansan reporter said:
"In the old, earlier days of the University things material were more meagre than they are now, but I can't see that you are ahead of us—of what we were in things spiritual. In fact I think the very opposite is true. Among us was a more generous idea of culture—study for knowledge, and wisdom, and a broad outlook on life, for literature, and art and history of our human kind-than I hear of now. Most of the K. U. students nowadays impress me as in pursuit of bread-studies alone—they seem to want to learn only what will help them gain a living, what they can turn into dollars and cents. In other things they seem to have little interest or sympathy. The old idea of leisurely study and reflection seems to have almost vanished. I see the practical value of present conditions. In speaking as I do I state a fact—and with regret for what impels the fact."
In reference to the agitation last year for a woman regent for the University, Miss Stephens said:
"Yes, I was one of the committee that worked last summer for the appointment of a woman regent. We failed apparently, not really. We planted seed for the future. The executive of the state, and a number of people in the state have not yet evolved to sympathy with the idea of the larger activities of women. In time they will grow up to it. It is all a question of evolution. The movement is world-wide and can no more be swept back by opposition than Mrs. Partington could sweep back the waves of the Atlantic. Arguments against it are more amusing than coqent.
"When in New York it has happened that I have been asked, 'What is the best college to send a boy to?' I always answer, 'The University of Kansas,' because it has most excellent professional schools and sound curricula, because it is democratic, and because its student men and women are energetic, self-reliant and wholesome."
