I hope you will all stop and
reflect for a moment that dairy
farming IS big business in New

farmer is just as much entitled
to a fair return on his time

THE GOOD SIDE
We often complain that we
don’t hear enough of the “good”
side of youth in this country, so
when I run across something I
think is particularly interesting,
I like to reprint it here.
The following column was
written by Dr. Max Rafferty,
the controversial educator from
California — controversial for
he believes in education for the
sake of education. He does not
see schools and colleges as a
breeding ground for communist
oriented misfits and fellow trav
elers.
This column was sent to us
by The Citadel with an accom
panying note clarifying two of
the statements made by Dr.
Rafferty. In referring to “fine
general education for 4,000 oth
er students”, Dr. Rafferty re
fers to the college’s Master of
Arts in Teaching program, the
evening program, summer ses
sions, the Citadel Summer Camp
for Boys, and Palmetto Boys
State.
Dr. Rafferty made the erron
eous statement that every fac

Now to the column:
BY DR. MAX RAFFERTY
“What ever happened to the
strict, no-nonsense military
school, where boys were turned
into men and where patriotism
was a state of mind to be proud
of instead of an object of offi
cial scorn?”
Hear ye the authentic voice
of an awful lot of American
fathers. You’d be surprised how
many worried dads write to me
in this vein. They look unbe
lievingly about them at the well-
publicized college campus of
today, bristling with beards,
fraught with filth, dripping with
disloyalty, and they say, “Oh,
no! Am I going to have to
spend $15,000 to send my kid
to THAT?”
Buck up Dad. What would you
say to a small but thoroughly
accredited college in an ancient
setting teeming with tradition,
where for 127 years a dedicated
staff has been graduating class
after class of young men whose
academic excellence is exceed
ed only by their love of country
and their healthy reverence for
the great traditions out of our
national past? A college which
proudly stresses its Cadet Corps
of 2,000 men but which also em
phasizes a fine general educa
tion for 4,000 other students? An
institution of higher learning,
where every member of the fac
ulty is a distinguished former
military officer?
Incredible, you say, in this
day and age? Not if you know
about The Citadel. In case you
don’t, let me tell you what I
found out a short time ago
when I flew back to South Caro
lina to check up on these “in
credible” rumors I’d been hear
ing about a school which act
ually and openly stood for de
cency and loyalty and high scho
lastic standards.
FIRST, its home town of
Charleston is proud of The Cita
del. It has been since 1843 when
it was founded. This is a bit of
a switch these days, when the
residents of so many of our col
lege towns are sick at heart
over the nauseating antics of
their local students and facul
ties. Charleston isn’t at all sick
about The Citadel. Quite the
contrary.
Second, and closely connected
with Charleston’s pride in its
college, is the remarkable re
cord of its graduates in the ser
vice of their country. Fifteen
fell for the Flag in World War
I; 280 died in World War II; 31
in Korea. Hundreds are now
grimly at grips with America’s
enemies in Vietnam. Apparent
ly the men of The Citadel stand
ready to put their lives where
their mouths are, a phenomenon
all too rarely encountered
among our hairy and hysterical
college activists.
Indeed, it has been always
thus. Cadets of The Citadel
fought for the Confederate
States at Yemassee Station in
1864 while helping to defend the
Charleston and Savannah Rail
road, and their descendants
fight as gallantly today for Old
Glory as their predecessors did
for the Stars and Bars. I met
two of the cadet commanders
in the office of Citadel Presi
dent Hugh Harris, who is a
four-star general, retired. One
of the boys was from California,
the other from South Carolina.
Tremendous young fellows with
shoulders like a bison’s and a
grip like a vise. Gear-eyed.
Straight-talking. My kind of col
legians.
Third and perhaps most im
portant is the caliber of The
Citadel’s leadership. Gen. Har
ris is the latest in a long line
of distinguished presidents who
have recently included Gener
als Mark Clark and Charles
Summerall. Over the years they
have consistently stood for strict
discipline, high standards and a
liberal education in the best
sense of that term.
SO, DAD, take hope and
heart. There may not be many
Citadels still going strong, but
there are some. The boys who
attend must be unmarried, they
must live in barracks and they
must behave like gentlemen.
They work hard, they go to cha
pel and their athletic teams are
honored throughout the South.
Now, Dad, the rest is up to
you. What The Citadel can do,
other colleges can do also, if
you just start sending Junior
to institutions like this one in
stead of to the pot-puffing, ob
scenely placarded, confronta
tion-minded colleges where your
son and thousands of other
men’s sons wind up these days,
largely as the result of sheer
apathy and yawning indiffer
ence on your part.
It’s your money, you know.
You can spend it to subsidize
centers of sex, drugs and treas
on or you can spend it on cita
dels of scholarship, morality,
and patriotism. It’s still a free
country.
And certainly the answer you
come up with is going to be im
portant to you. But it’s going
to be one heck of a lot more
lastingly important to your son.
