Awakening
The educated people of China, on
the other hand, according to Vir-
9.00 | | might have’stopped the movement: ginia Dzung, had become aware be-
fore 1930 of the world wide issues
at stake in the battle of democracy
and totalitarianism.
Vivi French, representing Amer-
ica, told how the intellectuals. of
this country, although for the most
part finally awake to the peril of
totalitarianism, have been too si-
lent and too inactive.
World Citizen
The group attributed this un-
awareness to the “starry-eyed”’
naiveté of citizens. In an ideal
‘citizen, intellectual _ achievements
must be combined with a full con-
sciousness of national and interna-
He must be-a-‘“‘world
citizen with a world loyalty.” Edu-
cation must not cultivate scholastic
powers at the expense of ethical
| awareness.

General Culture
One: of the duties of universities
in shaping such world citizens was
felt to be the providing of a back-
ground of ‘general culture. Al-
though specialists are needed now

ERRATUM
Last week’s article on the wire
advocating declaration of war
omitted the fact that the sixty-
six signers of the telegram included
members of both the faculty and
the College staff. It is not true
that sixty-six’ faculty members
signed.
The College staff consists of em-
ployees who are not on the faculty,
including persons in the adminis-
tration, librarians, secretaries, doc-
tors, nurses and technicians, peo-
ple in the College workshops, and
those concerned with teaching, but
not of faculty rank; instructors,
readers, demonstrators, assistants.
colleges contribute to the general
culture of their students. In
French universities, where there
are no organized sports, the spirit
of competition finds its only outlet
in individual academic rivalries.
Royal Kee, on the other hand, feels
that outside work in U. S. A. and
Canada is overstressed.
Technical Skill
A new task must be assumed by
modern universities—the teaching
of technical skills. Brazil’s future
success lies in the hands of her
technicians, Skippy Hughes de-
clared, while Jeannette Lepska
thinks that Poland, not benefiting
from her trained technicians, needs
a broader perspective in her citi-
zens, a better sense of relative
values, which only a liberal educa-
OPINION
American Flag Should Fly
On Bryn Mawr Campus
Writes I. R: P.
To the Editor of the College News:
I think it would be a very good
idea for Bryn Mawr College to fly
the American flag. Most schools
‘and colleges have one, and I think
many of us miss having it around.
Merion Green would be a promi-
nent and, I believe, a good place
for the flagpole. TARP 4:
tion can provide.
But even a proper balance of gen-
eral culture and technical skills is
not enough. These amount. to noth-
ing if the university or college
fails to provide for its students a
moral standard, an absolute human
integrity.
