EDITORIAL 1 HAPPENINGS THAT AFFECT THE FUTURE Writing in the January issue of Harper's Magazine, John W. Gardner, president of the Carnegie Corpora tion, tells of "The Great Hunt For Educated Talent." '" It is a story of a shortage and of an enormously im- i portant problem for which there is no easy solution. ! , v Nowadays college graduates with technical degrees ' command beginning salaries that would have seemed inconceivable a .comparatively short .time ago. Mr. , ' ''Gardner quotes an industrial executive as saying, "We A H don't screen them, they screen us." Last'ear one big company actually had recruiting, teams on 200 cam ' puses. The government, as well as business and in V'dustry, is in active competition for educated talent of many kinds. - -' . "But present demand for talent," writes Mr. Gard "' ' ner, "is not, as some people insist, a mere by-product - of prosperity. It is the nature of our society that has , churned up the wave of demand the rapid rate of our technical innovation and the, social complexities that have come in its wake.' He recalls that as recently as SO years ago the only fields that required advanced training were medicine, law, the ministry and education. AH has changed since then. Between 1870 and 1950 '. the number of professional workers grew three and ahalf times faster than the population. The most spec tacular change has been in the demand for scientists iand engineers. In 1870, they represented only three ier cent of all professional men; now the figure is 20 per , cent , Obviously enough, our educational system has grown vastly even though demand outruns supply. Higher education is now available in more than 1,800 institu Hons. At the same time, only a relative few of the in- stitutidns(48 ,in 1950) offer programs leading to Ph.D. degrees. And of those, Mr. Gardner says, . . .a sur- ' pristtly small fraction. . .carries the major burden1 framuig OUT piuicooiuiicu, auiuicuijr, sticuuui. auvi kcv-w nical leaders." - As we all know, there has been a tremendous em nhasis on specialization. That was inevitable, in a tech- ' nological age. But this, as Mr. Gardner observes, poses i 7 a dilemma . .a world of ever-ramifying specialties , J1 snon cries out for eeneralists. Consequently, ... .a ' soon cries out for eeneralists." And, "the most forward- ' ; looking of our collegea and universities are making active i .-. f i 11 1 ..1.1 1. ! ; effotrs to ensure that every specialist win duuq ms s; specialty on a base of general education. . .what ensure -' that every specialist will build his specialty on a base of , general education. . .What the future is going to de ; ' mand is specialists who are capable of functioning as generalists." V Mr. Gardner brings out one fact that will surprise ' .; many of us. Our total expenditures for higher educa ' '"tion now amount to only eight-tenths of one per cent .of our gross national. product the lowest figure since . "'- j . 1951, and far less, for example, than is spent on tobacco , products or alcoholic beverages. - Finally, he deals at some length with the problems economic and other that must be solved if suffi- -' cient educated talent is to be produced. He emphasizes ) ' th neprl to keen standards hiph ". . .excellence is the , proper concern of colleges and universities." His last " sentence reads: "Whether we shall have a steady flow ' . ' into leadership ranks of wise, liberally educated men and ,' , women with the creativity and) the sense of values which .' .the future demands or whether we shall have a para- lyzing flow of skilled opportunists, time servers, and ed- 1 ' . ucated fools depends wholly upon the sense of values which guides our efforts. i t 7 Hlllllllllllll .a J n t ' " ' .
