Dr. Chiappetta told an atten tive crowd that the present schools operate almost to total in effectiveness, because they do not aim at developing a person to ward humane behavior. He defined humane behavior as that behavior and complex ac tivities in which a person sees kindness, considerateness, integ rity, mutual respect, and com ponents of aesthetic human ex perience. Education has not made much progress since the Greek civiliza tion was in its glory and slaves, old men, and unproductive wom en were the teachers. These people could just as well hear recitations today, Dr. Chiappetta explained. If education, used in the sense of an institution, not experiences of an individual, continues to just teach subjects, which it probably The lecture will be broadcast over student radio station WDFM at 7:30 Sunday night. will, it will remain relatively un important and worthy of inade quate support and an inadequate staff. Humaneness will come someday, and I want it to come with the direction of fbrmalized education, he said. He attacked the belief that a boy is made a gentleman through schooling by saying: "The forces which generate cul ture are not found in the class room. Schools do not make a gentleman out of a slob, but take the children of gentlemen and force them through a series of girations which, with or without, they would become gentlemen," He emphasized that humanity in our culture today has de veloped in spite of education, not because of it. Throughout history education has served totalitarian governments as well as American democracy, he continued. "The best answer to the ques tion, How can we relate formal ized instruction and humane behavior? is the use of new in struments and theories in educa tion, he said. "We cannot afford for schools to play tiddlywinks . . . while someone else uses new instru ments to shape the child's educa tion in an irretrievable direction," he said. Dr. Chiappetta gave television as an example of a new instru ment, and theories of the science of human behavior as examples of new theories. Ed College Surplus Cited by Trabue Dr. Marion R. Trabue, dean of the College of Education, said yesterday that the College of Education has more stu dents than it can possibly accommodate. Therefore, the Col lege does not want to attract a surplus of students. These reasons were cited when the Education Student Council voted Tuesday nigh house weekend for the spring. The original purpose of the open house was to acquaint high school students with the facilities of the College, and to answer questions they might have about courses of study at the University. Dr. Trabue said that the College, with its graduate school, is second I or third in enrollment in the Uni versity. These figures alternate from year to year. Each year, the College receives two or three times more appli cants than it can possibly accom- Imodate. Applicants are accepted on a first-come. first-served basis, land many more are turned away I because of lack of funds and space. The original purpose of the Col lege was to serve as an experi mental school in preparation of teachers. The results were to be forwarded to the 15 State Teach ere Colleges and to other liberal arts colleges that offered educa tion courses. Trabue added that 4000 teachers are needed annually in Pennsyl vania. At present, only 2000 are entering the school systems, due to a general lack of preparation and training facilities. Several state officials, in pre vious years, urged a consolidation of State Teachers' Colleges. How ever, this proposal has been done away with because of an increased enrollment in the Teachers' Col leges and a need for instructors. Plans are in process at present, said Trabue, for two additional wings to Burrowes Building, simi lar to those on Sparks, because of the need for expansion. Elaine Harding, Gail Rolle, and David Faust were appointed to examine the po§sibilities of con ducting a Career Day program in education for students on campus to replace the open house. If car ried through, the project would be be similar to the Career Day spon sored by the College of Business Administration. Suggestions for the program included inviting out ,side speakers and receiving in struction in new techniques and methods of teaching. A curriculum committee was appointed to investigate courses and curriculums in the College of Education, and to search for dup lication, overlapping, or useless courses. Gwen Davies is chairman of the committee consisting of Vir ginia Hance, Thelma Baker, Kath erine Dickson, Barbara Cox, Mary Mertz, and Barbara Billing.
