A SCHOOL AWAY FROM SCHOOL
Students majoring in science, like all other American
students, have a wild yearning for culture, but, alas,
when a student is after a degree in engineering or math
or like that, he simply does not have time to take all the
liberal arts courses his heart pines for.
And what is being done about this unhappy situation!
I'll tell you what: Enlightened corporations everywhere
are setting up on-the-job liberal arts programs for the
newly employed science graduate—courses designed to
broaden his cultural base—for the enlightened corpora
tion realizes that the truly cultured employee is the truly
valuable employee.
Take, for example, Lambswool Sigafoos.
A week after his graduation, Lambswool reported to
Mr. Femur, the personnel director of an enlightened cor
poration engaged in the manufacture of cotter pins and
wing nuts. "How do you do?" said Lambswool. "I'm
Lamb:wool Sigafoos and I've come to work."
"Sit down," said Mr. Femur, chuckling kindly._ "Have
a Marlboro."
"Thank you," said Lambswool
I like their filter and their flavor."
"Me too," said Mr. Femur, blinking humanely. "And I
like their flip-top box. When my flip-top box of Marlboro.
is empty, I use it to keep fish hooks in."
"Know what I do when my flip-top box of Marlboros
is empty?" asked Lambswool.
"What?" said Mr. Femur, sniggering graciou.4y.
"1 buy some more Marlboros," said Lambswool.
"A sound idea," said Mr. Femur, vibrating fetchingly.
"But enough chit-chat. Come along to the campus."
"Campus?" said Lambswool, puzzled. "But I've come
to work. Take me to my drawing board."
"This is an enlightened corporation," said Mr. Femur,
yodelling viciously. "First you must get your cultural
base broadened."
Mr. Femur took Lambswool to the training campus,
which looked like any other campus. It had ivy-covered
buildings, dormitories, fraternity and sorority houses, a
stadium, a deer park, and a moat. Lambswool was given
a roommate, a beanie, and copies of the company hymn
and rouser, and the enlightened corporation proceeded to
fill the gap in his culture.
First he was taught to read, then to.print capital letters,
then capital and small letters. Then there was an attempt
to teach him script, but it was ultimately abandoned. -
From these fundamentals, Lambswool progressed slowly
but steadily through the more complex disciplines. He
was diligent, and the corporation was patient, and in th•
end they were rewarded, for when Lambswool finished,
he could play a clavier, compose a triolet, parse a sentence,
aid identify the birthstone for every month of the year.
His lengthy schooling finally over, Lambswool was
assigned to an important executive position where he
served with immense distinction.... Not, however, foe
long, because one week later be reached retirement age.
Today, still spry, he lives in St. Petersburg, Florida,
where he supplements his pension by parsing sentence
for tourists. • lellk illoilmodi
