"This college, wi ich ought to!
be best attuned to he educational'
needs of the stude ts, has yet tol
take any positive :action in curri
culum reform," De nis said.
"The College • the Liberal
Arts ought to be • magnet for
other colleges and departments.
But as it stands now, other de
partments are unwilling to be
incorporated;' Dennis said.
He cited as an example the De
partment of Psychology. The de
partment was asked to be a part
of the liberal arts college butt
was unwilling. Dennis also men
tioned economics and biological
sciences which should be within
the college but which refuse to
join the college as it stands now.
"The first question which must
be asked is 'What is the role of
liberal arts in a university?'"
Dennis said.
Dennis gave this answer "To
give a high quality of educa
tion to the increasing numbers
of qualified students."
He went on to name what he
called certain "mythologies" in
the college.
"We must stop trying to make
ourselves believe that every stu
dent who enrolls in sociology, for
example, will eventually be a so
ciologist. If we realize this, more
students will experiment with
their education," he said.
Dennis called the many rules
and course requirements which
are imposed upon students in
the college "another myth."
"Can't we cut back the number
of required credits? Can't we ex
plain to our students the inter
relation of the various subjects by
actually relating sociology and
English to the business world?"
Dennis said that he was merely
trying to offer constructive sug
gestions but that the real work
and responsibility lie with the fac
ulty of the college.

Lucky Strike's Dr. Frood
Dear Dr. Freed: I am writing my term
paper and would like to know how the
aNerage professor differentiates between
research and plagiarism?
Dear Lit: Plagiarism is nhen you copy
your paper from a book. Research is when
you copy your paper from more than
one book.

Deer Dr. From!: I was shocked w hen
1 read of ghostwriting firms preparing
term papers for certain college students.
But I was doubly horrified, upset and
stunned when 1 heard a rumor that you,
Dr. Frood, also use a ghost. Tell me it
isn't so, Doctor.
Dear Jacob: I categorically deny your
accusation. I do not use, nor have I ever
used, a ghost to write this column. I admit,
howeter, that when confronted with cer
tain difficult student problems, I have
called upon my late departed Uncle
Purdy for advice and counsel.

Please! What is the
secret?
Dear Puzzled:
Deer Dr. Frood: I didn't make the crew
because I get seasick. I couldn't make
the baseball team because the resin
bag gives me a rash. 1 was kicked off the
track team because cinders kept getting
in my eye. And I had to drop tennis
because I get ei tigo watching the ball
go back and forth. What can a great
athlete like myself do now?
Dear Sig: Why don't you expose otter•
