The Oberlin Alumni Magazine Vol 23 PDF Download

Excerpt from The Oberlin Alumni Magazine, Vol. 23: October 1926 So few of the Conservatory and School of Theology graduates replied, furnishing data or offering suggestions as to those departments, that it was deemed best by the committee to confine its study and recommendations pri marily to the College of Arts and Sciences. On the basis of a summary of the replies subcommittees1 were organized for the purpose of evaluating, of checking with trustees, officers, instructors, teachers, students, alumni, both of Oberlin and other colleges, and, finally, of preparing reports on the special fields of inquiry. Gen eral committee meetings attended by an average of 25 members were held in Oberlin in November, February and June. Special sub-committee meetings have been held in various centers during the course of the year. The report which follows is the result of the confer emees. It is made unanimously. It is offered not as a program of reform and, least of all, in a critical spirit. The members of the Committee have been conscious at every stage of their limitations and incapacity to pass with any degree of assurance on methods and policies of so highly organized and specialized an institution as a modern college. It is earnestly hoped that the contents of the report will be looked upon as merely suggestive and, above all else, as having sprung from a spirit of loyalty, continued interest and faith in the worth and achieve ments, both past and present, of the administration and faculty of Oberlin College.
