As a grad uate of both institutions I can truly | make this statement. Students Lose Individuality “The real specific benefit of the small college lies in the fact that its students are individuals. They know their professors. They are not simply | a number in a huge herd, without rec-1 ognition or individuality. “In a commencement in which from one to two thousand graduates receive their diplomas, as is the case in many of our large universities, there is no individuality. There may be a few who •ha\e graduated with honors, but most I of them rise 'and, without even an swering to their names, are given the degree of Bachelor of Arts, or what ever other degree they may receive. “The whole benefit of personal con- : E” | tact with the professor, the advantage ' i f his persona? sympathetic attention | — and his interest in each individual | ~ character as it is unfolded before him j ^ during the years of the association, are | all lacking in this mass instruction. “The safety of the future, the purity EE of learning and the efficiency of teach- SSE ! ing are all intimately bound up with ; the small educational unit,” his G«od Housekeeping article concludes.
