THE GUILFORDIAN
OXFORD IS FAMOUS
FOR ITS PHILOSOPHY
New Course, the "Modern Greats," Is
Given for Students Not Wishing to
Specialize in Classics
F. AYDELOTTE GIVES OPINION
(Summary of an article on "Phil
osophy at Oxford," by Pres. Frank
Aydelotte, of Swarthmore College,
Swarthmore, Pa., who is the Amer
ican Secretary for the Rhodes
Scholarship.)
In many fields of academic study
there is some one institution which
stands out above all the rest. If the
question were raised as to what is the
best place for philosophy, the answer,
I think, would be, Oxford.
There are several reasons for this
answer. For one thing, philosophy
holds the central place in the course
which, by general consent, shows the
Oxford tradition at its best, the course
in Literae Humaniores or "greats."
This is really an intensive study of
Greek and Latin civilization. The stu
dent reads the "Republic" through in
Greek, and tops it off with Aristotles'
"Ethics;" then with the intellectual
muscle produced by this somewhat
heavy gymnastic, he goes 011 to a rapid
tour of moral philosophy and a strong
winded plunge into logic. This is the
kind of work which in Oxford leads to
a B. A. Most Americans and many
Englishmen have felt a little reluctant
to spend so much time 011 the ancients,
and in answer to the increasing de
mand, Oxford has established a "mod
ern greats" which attempts for the mod
ern period what the traditional course
does for the ancient. This new course
covers history, economics, and politics
besides philosophy, but it is philoso
phy still that carries the greatest pres
tige; and at any rate, since these sub
jects are all philosophically studied, it
is the men who are most at home in re
flective analysis that finally lead the
lists.
Apart from the central place of
philosophy in the tradition of Oxford,
there are three other factors_ that make
it philosophically pre-eminent. One is
the method of teaching. You are given
a tutor or supervisor for whom you
write frequent papers, and you must
discuss and defend these productions
in the privacy of his room. Directly
confronted with a practiced mind, you
soon find your hidden failings of man-

ner and matter coming painfully bu
most instructively to light.
Again, at Oxford philosophy is dis
cussed. The place in term-time seethe
with talk, some bad, but much of it i
good; and the power to thrust am
parry is highly prized. The averag
English student with less knowledge
perhaps, than ourselves, strikes one a
having his wits incomparable better ii
hand, and he maintains his views witl
more readiness, adroitness, and re
source. And the meetings, formal an
informal, philosophical, political, am
literary, at which the intellectual garni
is played, are without number.
Finally, there are as many teachers
of philosophy at Oxford as at three oi
four of our larger universities put to
gether. Each of the 21 colleges has
its own philosophical tutor, and be
sides these there are the universitj
professors, the dons at the women'i
colleges, the teachers at Manchestei
and Mansfield, the unofficial private
coaches.
Perhaps a word about the condition!
of this famous scholarship will not be
amiss. To compete for it, a man musl
have reached 19 and not passed 2o
and he must be at least a sophomore in
his college. He may compete eithei
in the state in which he lives or the
state in which he has received his col
lege training. Appointments are mad=
on the basis of the man's record and of
a fairly extended personal interview by
a state committee. Applications are
due in October; the appointments are
announced in December.

lie was fishing in a ponel one elay when
a e'ountry boy who had been watching

"None yet," he was told.
"Well, yer ain't eloin' so bad," saiel
the youngster. "I know a feller what

REIXHOLT AT GUILFORD
During the illness of Dr. Perisho, the
Geology classes have been under the
instruction of Oscar 11. Reinliolt.
Mr. Reinliolt, who in 1903-4, served
as superintendent of the Army Coal
Mine in the Philippines, has for many
years been concerned with the study of
fuel and power. Ilis 27-page article in
The Engineering Magazine for January,
1006 on "U. S. Enterprise in the Coal
Trade of the Philippines" was abstract
ed under "Leading Articles of the
Month" in Review of Reviews, Febru
ary, 1006.
He was recently quoted by Dr. Henry
Goddard Leach in a radio debate on
"Super-Power" concurrently with the
appearance of two opposing articles in
the March Forum on the same subject.
Responding to the editor's request,
Mr. Reinliolt declared that, in his opin
ion, super-power should remain under
government control and ownership, its
development should be done under con
tract with established engineering con
cerns, but its distribution should be left
to responsible public service corpora
tions.
