On EducationNorth American universities are confronted with a

dilemma which needs to be faced realistically . It is this :How to provide higher education for more and more peopl eand at the same time fully utilize the intelligence of each

individual.The dilemma becomes apparent in the growing complain t

that the Bachelor of Arts degree is becoming discredited .

This is mainly because there are now more holders of a

Bachelor of Arts degree than ever before—a consideration of

simple supply and demand. In addition, however, it is tru e

that a B.A. degree can be obtained by almost anyone, or by

doing and learning almost nothing.Yet raising the standard of university studies is a defec-

tive solution to the problem of the B .A. Where should the

line be drawn? Exactly how intelligent should one be to b e

able to win a ,B.A . ?We cannot restrict university education to those o f

a certain high intelligence . We cannot make greater use ofthe brains of the more intelligent at the cost of neglectin g

the brains of the less intelligent . If anyone needs a univer-

sity education, it is the person with lower intelligence .Our civilization has a high regard for higher liberal edu-

cation because it makes for better and more civilized huma n

beings. And shouldn't every member of our civilization b e

: betters and more civilized ?As our standard of living rises, we will be able to af-

ford to offer more and more of our people more and mor e

liberal education. It would be a mistake to arbitrarily shu tout those below a certain level of intelligence .

This can certainly . be done at present in the field of

technical education ; our economy requires only a certain

number of engineers or doctors . Yet in the future, we willreach a stage where an extremely high percentage of thepopulation will require this higher training . Then, bothliberal and technical education will be faced with much th e

same dilemma.A solution must be found . The encouragement of adul t

education is rather a makeshift one . A solution is more likel yto lie in the complete reorganization of our universities .The curriculum must be organized so that it offers a seriouschallenge to the highest of intelligences, and yet will not dis-courage those of average or less intelligence .

One solution would be setting different periods of tim e

for the entire course of studies . Geniuses would win a de-

gree in a year; dunces would take eight years . This would beunobjectionable in the field of technical education, wher ean always limited demand will require some means of elim-

ination ; but it would be unfair in the field of liberal educa-

tion .The reorganization should probably stress a change in

quality rather than time ; a whole set of liberal arts degrees—

and eventually technical degrees—would be offered, eac h

with a different value. Students would all graduate at th e

same time, but some would win superior degrees becaus etheir studies were more extensive .

If this is a horrifying thought to traditionalist acade-micians, they must provide a superior proposal—and adop t

it as soon as possible .

On AssistanceDr. Harry Hawthorn spoke for the UN Club last mont h

on "Technical Assistance and Underdeveloped Countries . "We do not disagree with Dr, Hawthorn's praise for the

good work being clone by UNESCO and otehr agencies .What we question is the subject chosen by Dr . Hawthorn

and the U.N . Club .Asia needs aicj today--there is no questioning this . But

the important point is not so much how to fill this nee das why the need arises .

It cannot be attributed solely, if at all, to the recent

world war . Nor can it be blamed on the internal strife exist-ing in many colonial countries. The latter is not a caus e

but a result .Asia has needed "aid" since the "civilizers" arrived .

That is precisely the point . The Asian people suffer from th eeconomic condition, created for them—or is it in spite of

them?—by the gentlemen adventurers of economic develop-ment .

The economic conditions suffered by Asian populationstoday are defined 1>,v the mineral extracting and manufac-turing industries existing in their countries .

It is easy to see that in the correction or elimination o fthe misery-creating forces in Asia lies the permanent solu-tion .

II is better to devote energy to the correction of econo-

mic distress than to pursue a hapless, never-ending policy

of "assistance" towards it .Better to eliminate that ease,

(previous to 1952, the Inter-national Student Service) wa sfounded in 1925. The further-ance of international under -standing through the integre-gation of the world universitycommunity in cooperative re -lief and educational projectshas been the chief purpose ofthe organization's activitie ssince that time .

From 1939 to 1945 Worl dUniversity Service was the ex-ecutive instrument for a val-uablework of educational re -lief which included most help-ful services to prisoners of war .

Since 1945, World Universityservice has made substantia lprogress, not only in meetingthe pressing post-war demandsfor university student reliefand rehabilitation in Europe ,but also in relation to the vas tproblem posed by the Asia nuniversities .

It was the first Internationa lstudent organization to mak eeffective contact with post-warstudent committees in Asia .That this approach was madeby an Asian national createda very favorable impressio namong Asian students, an dovercame many of the suspi-cions attaching to a wester norganization . Approximatelyhalf of the strength of Worl dUniversity Service is nowdrawn from these Asian Com-mittees .,World University Ser-vice is actively supported b ythe' World's Christian Federa-tion; Pax Romana, and theWorld Federation of Jewis hStudents ,

The Canadian Committee ofW.U.S. was organized in 1939.In structure, World Universit yService of Canada is dominatedby an Annual Assembly con-sisting of one student and onefaculty representative from thelocal committee in each univer-sity, together with delegatesfrom the National Conferenceof Canadian universities, theNational Federation of Cana-dian University Students, theHillel Foundation , in Canada ,the Student Christian Move-ment of Canada, the Canadia nFederation of Newman Clubs ,the Federation Canadienne de sUniversities Catholiques an dthe Canadian Federation ofCatholic College Students .

The basic objection of WorldUniversity Service of Canadais to effect a long range con-

structive action for peac ethrough a two-fold program ofrelief and education .

The relief program has hith-erto been completely finance dby money raising among Can-adian students as a practicalgesture of goodwill and a sens eof responsibility towards fello wstudents .

Since 1948 Canadian studentsand faculty have given mor ethan $260,000 from their ownpockets for the relief of stu-dents in other countries . Inaddition, W .U.S. has broughtmore than'100 foreign student sto Canada who have continue dtheir studies in Canadian uni-versities .

the average cannot earn enoug hduring the summer to cove rtheir university expenses it wasrevealed by a campus poll .

The results of the survey sho wthat men between their firs tand second year earn approxi-mately $600 and women betwee n$200 and $300.

The figures did not representtotal summer earnings', but onlythe portion which was not usedfor living costs during the sum-mer 'and was available for aca-demic expenses .

The survey was conducted inconsultation with the psychologydepartment and is based on abalanced sample of students .

The survey suggests that a smany as 200 students hr ve drop-ped out of the U of T this yearthrough lack of funds .

The overall pictures presentedby the survey shows that sum-mer earnings have decreasedover the last three yars .

This year the average studentwas able to earn during th esummer less than half the mone yrequired for academic expenses .

An Interestin gCAREE R

As a first year Arts student considering your future career, why no t

enquire about Chartered Accountancy? It is a fine profession, offerin g

interest, variety, opportunity and substantial rewards .

A new scheme has been developed—the B .Comm-C .A. Plan—by which,

through taking a combined course of University studies in the summer an d

practical training in a Chartered Accountant's office in the winter (on a

salary basis), you can obtain your B .Comm. degree and become a C .A. in a

shorter time than if you were to take your B .Comm, first and then you r

C .A. afterwards .
