NUMBER OF HOURS OF
REQUIRED WORK CUT]
Class of 1930 Will be the First to
Benefit by the Changes. No
Course Eliminated
MORE TIME FOR ELECTIVES
The number of hours given to required
courses are to be cut down for 1930 and
each succeeding. class. No one ngw’ in
college is affected by the new. arrange-
ment. The change last year from the
group system to the single major was
preliminary to that which will be made
next year. Before*this year, the system
provided for twenty-five hours of required
work, twenty bouts of group subjects, ten
hours of elective, and’a five hour block
that floated between the group and the
electives.
of required work than at almost any col-
This was a larger proportion
lege. The new plan is a compromise, and
the result of a good deal of work.
Requirements, as they will be for 1930,
will give three hours to English for two
years, two to Philosophy and Psychology
each for one year, three to an Ancient
Language, and ‘five to a Science as before.
No reduction was made in the science re-
quirement because the Faculty unani-
mously felt that a Science laboratory
course could not be given in a shorter time.
“The Faculty believes that no one
course could be eliminated because the
required subjects are too valuable as a
background for all other courses,” said
President Park making the announcement
Monday morning, February 22. “But
they realize that it is to the advantage of
the student to have as much time as pos-
sible to devote to her particular subject.
Then, too, the student will have more time
to give to those things which interest her,
ebut which are not connected with
major.”
In order that the student may have more
time for advanced work, Miss Park stated
that. students would be encouraged to pass
off some of their required subjects. as ad-
vanced standing. Next week she will talk
further about the curriculum changes.

In general, the playing

.from back and forward alike. A. Bruere

ing several neat goals: The line-up was:

* said Pfo-
Ph. D.;
“The greatest predicament,
fessor Archibald Allan Bowman,
Professor of Logie at Princeton, who
spoke in chapel last Sunday evening, “the
greatest predicament is*not the contro-
‘versy between Fundamentalists and Mod-
ernists, but the fact. that the-world is be-
coming less and less religious.”
Secular interests are occupying the place
formerly held by religion. There was a
‘time when religion was everything. Men
were religious the entire time. Now we
are religious only at special moments.
We see God little; God has become re-
|mote. “How far‘is this proces$ going to
extend?” ‘asked Dr. Bowman.. “Will
there be a time when religion will have
disappeared?” ¢
“To answer fhis Sudetion ° we will have
to inquire into the nature of religion.
What is religion? Is it a necessity of
life?” Religion, Dr. Bowman defined as
“an attitude peculiar to man arising out
of man’s natural and irresistable desire
for life.’ Fundamental to religion is the
desire for life. The securing of immortal-
ity is the motive of religion both in its
primitive phase, and in its most highly
developed form as is ‘shown by Christ’s
words. “I am come that they may have
life; and that they may have it more
abundantly.” .
“What is this life that man desires?
queried Professor Bowman. Experience
has two aspects, one of which is not
usually—realized..in— Philosophy and_Sci-
ence. It-is true that experience is the
awareness of the world of nature, but it
is also true that it is impossible to be
aware of nature as objective without being
aware of ourselves as subjective. Life
also has two aspects: life is an observable
phenomenon of nature; and life is the
possibility of experience, subjectively re-
vealed as what it means to be alive. This
latter aspect is what man desires. Man
wants to exist as he now exists, as a
center of consciousness: relating | himself
to other centers of consciousness:
“It now remains to be seen if these
conditions which render experience per-
sonal and eternal are realizable, and, if
so, how,” said Professor Bowman.

SWARTHMORE BEATS BRYN
Basketball Game I ast Saturday Ends
31-13 Against Bryn Mawr
‘
Although the score in the Swarthmore-
Varsity game played last Saturday was
31-13, it was no indication of overwhelm-
ing superiority of the visitors’ team.
Swarthmore moved more as~a unit than
did Varsity, as a result .of more concen-
trated practice. Bryn Mawr’s passing was
exceptionally weak, and often frustrated
by the quicker guarding of Swarthmore.
F. Jay, '26, was the star of Varsity, playing
a brilliant if individual game. But our
guards were unable to cope at all with the
lightning speed and elusiveness of Cap-
tain Brown of the scarlet team.
The line-up was: :

during the second semester, 32 per cent.,
ail this past semester, 28 per cent.
The administration gave five reasons
for its disapproval of this state of affairs:
The general standard of scholarship is
apt to be lower; Friday and Monday
classes are likely to’ be cut; the influence
of those who go away and can afford it
is bad on those who cannot; the avail-
able hours for couference appointments
are cut down, and lastly, the continuity
of the work is badly broken.

CURRICULUM CHANGES
The adoption of the Single Major Sys-
tem last year has been followed this year
by a reduction of five year-hours in Re-
quired Work. This reform is undoubtedly
part of the present movement in education
towards specialization in one*or two subjects,
with an increase*in independent advanced
work, exemplified in the Honors Courses,
or Oxford System, now being used in
many colleges. Lessening the Required
Hours also widens the student’s opportunity
for pursuing her- various interests in Elec-
tive courses.
We heartily approve this new change. But
we regret the reduction in English. Though
Sophomore Composition, dropped last year,
was. certainly unnecessary (perhaps we
speak from unfortunate’ personal experi-
ence) we-believe in the unusually large re-
quirement in literature, for its own sake as
well as its supplementing of other arts
courses,
Horace, Catulliis and the plays, we are
delighte@ to find in the three-hour Latin
Requirement. These are the treasures of the
present course, both for their association
in other study and for the pleasure in them,
which, personally speaking, we know will
Jast a lifetime.
Finally we wonder what is the real cause
of the prevailing changes in college cur-
is an example. Are they the result of past
experience in American education, remorse
for past mistakes? Do they arise from new
scientific knowledge of psychology and edu-
cation? Or is their cause in the make-up of
colleges today, rather than in knowledge and
evaluation of experience? Has the general
type of undergraduate so changed, with in-
creased college attendance and other factors,
that the curriculum must be altered? The
question is important. We hope the future
classes to be benefited will prove themselves
scholars rather than mere guinea-pigs in the
laboratory of education.

A CRY FOR_REFORM
The principle of familiarizing ~wmder-T
graduates with the figures which crowd
the pages of their required courses is ex-
cellent, and well served by the practice
of Bryn Mawr in filling its academic halls
with pallid statues of the great. ~But it
seems that a certain amount of injustice
has crept into the working out of the
system. . Close gxamination of Taylor,
statuary reveals the fact that nearly all,
from Cato to Faustina Lente, are figures
from Latin literature. But Latin in the
future will be required for only six hours
out of one hundred and twenty, so that
only one-twentieth of the work of the aver-
age undergraduate obtains recognition ing
mortuary statuary! |
Certainly the scale ought to be adjusted,
and due stress placed upon the other
required subjects. Let us have represen-

DEAR BRUTUS "
Once’ more we must declare ourselves for
Varsity Dramatics, at least as far as it
provides opportunity for all, both in acting
and sting. The cast of Dear Brutus an-
nounced this week shows no preference for
Seniors: there are only two on the list.
Freshmen have two parts, both important;
the balance of the cast is made up of four
Juniors and three Sophomores. Only two
af the actresses in Dear Brutus, moreover,
took parts in the last Varsity Dramatics
production, Icebound, a small proportion in
a cast of eleven. Obviously there is no
monopoly on the Bryn Mawr stage.
On the Costume and Scenery Committees,
also, all classes are represented.
The selection of the play: we likewise ap-
plaud as a decided contrast to that chosen
in October, giving a chance for very
different types of acting and staging, and a
different kind of pleasure to the audience.
Dear Brutus carries with it all the delightful
associations of Barrie’s name, a humor,
imagination and literary exc@llence that were
lacking in the last play.

MORE ON UTOPIA
The editorial in The College News of Feb-
ruary 10, 1926, which advised mimeographed
sheets instead of lectures, has caused much
comment on, the campus. One of the most
helpful criticisms came from a member
of the faculty, who pointed out that the re-
quired courses were not the cement-highway
through the city, but the road to it. Un-
less a person is by nature a student, and has
already gained the necessary general infor-
mation, it is impossible igr her to do re-
search on her own account as Soon as she
enters college; and without required daily
attendance at lectures, the highway would
never be traversed. The ,Professor, in
visualizing the editor’s Utopia, pointed out
that when we want to improve ourselves, we
are more apt to fly to the New Book Room
oar the Magazine Room than to the stacks,
and that the evils of cramming would be
multiplied tenfold if we were handed a
packet of mimeographed sheets at the open-
ing of the Semester.
‘All this is very true, and serves to show
that the mimeographing of lectures, with-
out the addition of new organization, would
be disastrous. It does not mean, however,
that we should relapse into an indifferent
satisfaction with the present system. As a
slight beginning, itf#Mmay be helpful to name
two concrete changes which, would make
stich a revolution as the giving up of lec-
tures more possible. First: Lectures ean
never be entirely abolished; the art of
Rhetoric and Oratory Ml continue to find
material for our delection in_every course,
while more informal talks will lead to valu-
able class discussion. The subjects of these
lectures would be posted, and, in the ideal
state, would make such an appeal that at-
tendance taking could be dispensed with.
Second: Students could never be left to
their’ own initiative, with nothing more tha
the assurance-that every professor was will-
ing to help them. An occasional scheduled
quiz, individual conferences, and frequent
reports would take up most of the time
saved—the quiz to check up on the mimeo-
most | graphed notes, the conference to _instsne
a
stance;
the reports would provide the opportunity
for individual work, either creative or re-.
search. 8
It is clear that we have been broadly out-
lining the Oxford .Tutorial System; it is
equally clear that such a system is impossible
in Bryn Mawr for the present, as it requifes
a vast enlargement of the Faculty. But let
tis keep it in mind, together the more de-
tailed suggestions made by Dr. Meiklejohn
last year.. We must remember that future
Utopias may look back on our present lec-
ture system as barbarous; indeed, we can

to imagine why, after its initial use was

modern methods, this system held such uni-
versal sway. When the spontaneous rush
of students to the feet of a master was re-
placed by the custom of going to colleges
with compulsory classes, only a few English

(Editors do not hold themselves respon-
sible for opinions expressed in this column.)
To the Editor of the Correce News:
In an editorial of the News of February
10, the plea was made that four years of
college would be superfluous if a “prospec-
tive Bachelor” had, in a_ shorter time,
“friends to enjoy, an interest, and power of
mind to direct her in following that inter-
est.” I take up the cudgel to uphold the
value of four full years at college, and, in-
cidentally, to defend the reputation of Sir
Thomas Browne, who was quoted in the
introduction to this article.
Sir Thomas Browne, we must remember,
was a philosopher. To him, if he were alive
today, the “gray hairs” of a-college student
might very easily mean “friends to enjoy,
an ingerest, and power of mind to direct that
interest.” But for those who would look
for more than a “white head” as the greatest
possibility in a college education, Sir Thomas
would surely find encouraging opportunities.
Our chances for works of hearty and in-
telligent co-operation would indeed be slim
if we all considered it superfluous to have
more than “an” interest. A world of creat-
ing individualists who had little intellectual
or sympathetic interest in each other’s con-
ceptions would soon make this planet look
back “with longing to the days when it was
a ball of fire. Two of the greatest virtues
of a liberal education, such ag lies behind a
college degree, are the variety of knowledge
and the breadth of understanding: which re-
sult from college studies and college con-
tacts. Carefully guarded in the required
courses of Bryn Mawr College are hours of
Science, Philosophy, Psychology, English,
Latin. One year can never present all these
different points of view and methods of at-
tack to a student; two years seldom do. I
will not discuss ‘the value in intellectual
training and in increased interests which is
to be had from the above mentioned sub-
jects; under the diligent protectien of a
splendid faculty they have remained required
subjects. This speaks for itself. ee
As for electives, I pity the girl who leaves
Bryn Mawr College without ‘taking, for in-
the Minor Art Course. If she
travels, if she ever wishes to get a fair en-
joyment out of artistic surroundings the rest
of her life, she will never regret such a
stimulating foundation as she can procure at
Bryn Mawr. Also, since one never knows
what openings for intelligent community
work will turn up in the future, a course in
Sociology is not only desirable but, to my
mind, absolutely necessary. A\ study of the
catalogue will show to each girl many other
subjects which would be most serviceable
for her, individually, and which would take
—_ four years to. study.

by the editor of the “Saturday Review.”
Music lovers may enjoy a Russian String
Quartet give a varied program, or hear
Beethoven and Bach selections played as
only _the_Philadelphia - Orchestra can play
them. Scholarships, Glee Clubs, and Varsity
Plays are other worthy temptations. All
such attractions are not as easily obtainable
in theeouter world.
But studies and intellectual pursuits are
not the only advantages in completing four
years at college, A student often does not
“wake up” till after a year or two. Coming,
as many do, from small schools or from
larger private schools where dependence of
thought and action are fostered, a girl is
not always aware of the usefulness to which’
a freer life can be put. It takes some time.
to see what is offered, both intellectually
and socially. One seldom again has the op-
portunity of meeting others under such
revealing conditions as one does in college #
life. It is almost’ a truism to remark that
college provides lasting friendships that set
a very ‘high standard for all other associa-
tions. During the most impressionable time
of her life the undergraduate is given
several years, and less than four years
scarcely suffices, in which to develop and
cement attachments that can mean as much,
if not more, to us than our intellectual at-
tainments. Learning to know and to love
many different personalities is one of the
finest joys in our life: the feeling that such
friends are life-long is one of the greatest
consolations for, other later disappointments
and sorrows. Should we consciously de-
prive ourselves of more close contacts of
this sort in our own class and in following
classes?
At twenty-one or twenty-two a college
graduate has several years ahead of her in
which to “put out her feelers.” She does not
need more years for this, especially if these
are to be years with drawbacks due to im-
mature judgment and a narrowed outlook.
After-college life should be dedicated to
some one or few interests; but these should
‘be appropriate ones, selected from a wide
assortment of well-tested investigations.
Furthermore, a degree often decides to |
whom an enviable position will be given.
Therefore, if it has been possbile to
have spent four years at college, the grad-
uate is: likely to find that the virtue of
her diploma does not depend on anything
“so mechanical as the number of years
spent in earning the sheepskin.” Aside
from the practical value of her certificate
she is glad that she considered it more
than a “small shame” to forego the priv-
ilege of spending four years in receiving
the blessings that become hers when she
is made a Bachelor of Arts.
Respectfully,
ADELE PANTZER,*25.

Social Service. work of the Association
was referred to a spring meeting. It was
contended that the centers, particularly
Haverford, were not, satisfied with the
help they received, and that the workers
were not interested in going to them. “It
is becoming increasingly hard to find
substitutes,” said C, Platt, ’27, who re-
ported on the*question. “People go a few
times and then tire of the work.”
It was decided by a unanimous vote to-
ask Dr. Gilkey for two lectures again next
year, and Dr. Tyson also. While it was
the opinion of the meeting that denomi-
nations should not be recognized, it was
voted that the name of a leader for such
denomination should be included in the
handbook. ;
The «Cabinet, decided that discussions
were valuable, and that it would try to
arrange for several of the sort that were
led last year by Dr. Hart.
WORLD IS LESS Co
AND LESS RELIGIOUS
Xonrinvep FROM PAGE 1
“Such a principle is conceivable only
on the further condition that life be guar-
anteed to us by a universal principle. Is
this universal principle found in nature?
What is a nature? Nature is a world of
objects. But,” continued Dr. Bowman, “the
objects of our experience differ from the
experience we have of nature. We have no
experince of any procsss by which objects of
nature give experience. Experience then does
not arise from nature. _Man’s experience
is not a factor of the natural order. Ex-
perience implies a supernatural world.
Although we usually regard the super-
natural as remote and therefore doubt its
existence, the supernatural,” asserted Dr.
Bowman, .“is bound up with the condi-
tions of our existence and nature is sec-
ondary. Nature can produce objects and

vate to himself. No one of us has ever
rAlized the experience of being subject-
ively alone’ From thé beginning, we have
life in a World of conscious: subjects.
: “Personal relationship then implies an
interior view of nature as a system of
| selves. Personal relationship is a trans-
subjective relationship. If the possibility
of subjective experience can be explained
Lonly by referring it to a world of trans-
subjective ‘relationships and if all trans-
subjective relationships are experience, it
then folows,” said Professor Bowman,
“that this personal relationship is 4 uni-
versal experience, the subject of which is
a Universal Being.” ;
“What do we mean by eternal life? We
do not mean existence as such indefinitely
prolonged as the atom, but an existence
which reveals itself subjectively as experi-
ence. Life implies the existence of God,
therefore man’s life must follow from the
nature of God. Man is then necessary to
God, just as God is necessary to man.”
This is the the principle of life eternal.
“Is there any means of assuring our-
selves of eternal life?” asked Dr. Bow-
man. He explained that eternal life does
not necessarily follow from life. We must
“lay hold” on it. It is something then
within our grasp here and now.
The eternity which is realizable at pres-
ent is a knowledge of God, a new possi-
bility of experience. This is what Dr.
Bowman thinks that the Bible means by
eternal life. This knowledge of God must
be more than a theoretical knowledge; it
entails the experience of knowing that we
are not alone but that God is with us. It
“can be brought home if we take life seri-
ously.
This experience finds its parallel in that
of the little child in the story of the going
to Capernaum. On the way the Disciples
quarreled about who should be greatest
in the kingdom of heaven. Apparently

Christ pointed out a little child, “who
probably had pushed himself to the: front
ranks,” imagined Dr. Bowman, and said,
“The greatest shall. be: least; the least
greatest.” The child no dgubt became
covered with confusion Shen Christ
pointed him out. This was the result of
the eye of the Master. We experience
the same confusion, the .same dread, the
same desire to shrink out of sight to es-
cape when we meet God. :
“From. this experience,” said Dr Bow-
man in conclusion, “follows the ‘whole
content of Christianity—humility and mor-
ality, since_morality. means doing the will
of God or rather living in acknowledg-

MR. RUSSELL TO SPEAK:
IN CHAPEL NEXT SUNDAY
Rey. Oliver Russell, M. A., of Edin-
burgh, will speak in chapel next Sunday
evening, February 28. During February
and March he is occupying the pulpit of
the Bryn Mawr Presbyterian _ Church,
since Dr. Mutch has been granted a leave
of absence to visit the Holy Land. Mr.
Russell stands high among Presbyterians
in Scotland for his ability as a preacher
and as a leader along civic and educational
lines.
At Edinburgh University he showed
great vigor and versatility by editing the
University magazine, while at the same
time being president of the University
Union, Captain of the University Football
team, and Sergeant-Major of the Univer-
sity Battery. Beginning as Assistant in
Lothian Road Church, he soon became.
Minister of the Leckie Memorial Church
in Peebles, which position he ‘held for
eight years, although the last two were
spent at the front jn the Great War. From
1916 to 1925 he was minister of Middle
Church, Paisley; he is now minister of St.
Stephen’s United Free Church of Edin-
burgh,
Mr. Russell, as one of the speakers,
made a most favorable impression at the
Old Chatham, N.Y. Pan-Presbyterian Council held in Pitts-
(about 20 miles from burgh in 1921. He is said to be a capti-
