ciety.

Hatch and Asst. Profs. Charles W.
Dean, Clark McPhail and Charles
W. Tucker.
They were the only signers from

As a result of our call for ideas
and comments (we hope') we re
ceived the letter which reads in
part:
Dear Sir:
"Having attendhd the Student
Forum on International Ordelr and
World Peace, Airlie Conference
Center, Warrenton, Va., Nov. 17
19, 1 have become concerned with
the attitudes held among the mem
hers of the Carolina Community
about the general topic "Peace,"
and the lack of education among
this group about a topic so im
portant to all of us.
"To quote the chairman of the
conference, ''Peace is too important
to he left up to the peaceniks." For
the people of the world to he as
sured a reasonable, secure future,
something must be done to break
the spiral of tension which is lead
ing to another war. This "some
thing," which must be done, is, in
my opinion. to educate the "future
leaders"--the students on our cam
pus.
"I would, therefore, appeal to
you, and the newspaper which you
represent, to take the initiative on
our campus to bring the facts
di orced from 1polit ical interprlleta -
tion--to the sleeping mass of stu
dents which comprise the bulk of
the Carolina Community. . . ."
-Joe T. Watson, Ireident of
the l'SC luternational Rtelatiouns
Club and Chiairmtan of the Inter
niaiionail Conmmiittee of the Student
As Mir. Watson also said, "The
challenge to concerned organ iza
tions is tremendous, the .eed is
great and the time has come for
some' act ion to he taken.'
lIWo w e' v c r, we feel that the
limited capaceity of this piage and
pape-r cannuot achieve this g 4) a I
without the full support of the
faculty in ide-as and suggestions
anda one4 or more forums here for
members. of ihe Carolina~ Conm
munity.
What do you think? Should this
possily lie a gene-ral c'ourse in
cluded in the University curricu
lum?

believes that a student should "be
come involved with the past and
look at in its own light."
Dr. Wilson came to the USC
History Department last year from
Duke University because he "was
offered the courses he wanted to
teach."
IHere he is trying to apply his
theory of historical s t u d i e s in
several of his classes. In his honors
class, he gave the final exam at
the first of the semester and now
the class concentrates on discus
sion and reading early historical
hooks.
In his regular history sections he
gives topical lectures and assigns
parallel books. He tries to find
books which will stimulate them
and which are interesting.
Dr. Wilson says the University
is developing "but has a long way
to go." le feels that more em
phasis should be placed on the
secondary school system in South
Carolina to give the students a
broader and better foundation for
their college education.
lie said that if F'SC is to enter
the mainstream, "the students
must he proul to cone here he
caLse it is it decent school," and

sees the emphasis on athletics as

lie feels that the school should
be for the student, "not the ad
ministration, the football team or
the faculty."
Dr. Wilson said that the student
should be brought into contact
with learning, pick up new ideas
and broaden his outlook. "You
don't come to a university to learn
what to think," he concluded, "but
how to think."
Dr. Wilson is a native of Ten.

"Try Watching TV After
School," an article by Dr. Alvin
Munson Jr., asst. prof. of educa

elementary teachers profit from
after-school viewing of educational
television.
Dr. Munson adds, "The length
of the telecast was not of conse

cast was well presented."
