THE GUILFORDIAN
PROGRESSIVE HIGHER EDUCATION
A Review of the Bennington College
Project
(From National Student Federation of
America)
In the fall of 1931 a new college for
women will be opened. Bennington
College will be located in Old Benning
ton, Vermont, in the foothills of the
lovely Green Mountains. There, in
the quiet of an old New England town,
the most advanced theories of educa
tion will formulate themselves into
reality.
Tt will be a college for the modern
young woman, a place of freedom and
not of restriction, a haven for the in
quiring mind. In fact, the college will
have nothing to do with the ordinary
young woman who wants orientation in
several fields. It will serve the gifted,
the girls who show a great aptitude
in one of the four great fields of en
deavor —in the social sciences, natural
sciences, literature, or fine arts. Fail
ure in preparatory school in a course
in mathematics, perhaps, will not keep
out a student who shows signs of
musical talent. Bather, she will be
welcomed.
Her program at college might be
mapped out tentatively thus: Her first
two years will be called the Junior Di
vision, and the last two years the Sen
ior Division. Entrance to the Senior
Division will be contingent upon a cer
tain amount of accomplishment in her
major field during the years of the
Junior Division.
During these first two years, she will
study an introductory course in each
one of the four fields of knowledge.
In addition to these four, she will
choose for the nonce, the field in which
she thinks she is most interested. She
will then meet with the other students
who have selected this subject as their
field of achievement, and their group
will meet as a "trial major conference."
She will have the opportunity to change
this major if she discovers that she is
not interested and not distinctly com
petent in this field. Those will be her
formal classes.
Her last two years will be somewhat
like those for Honors Students study
ing in some of our colleges now. The
program for these two years will be
comparable with the tutorial system as
used in English universities and in a
few American colleges.
During her four years 'stay in Ben
nington she will live in the same house
with a carefully chosen group of girls.

She will be closely associated with two
members of the faculty who will live
in that house with the girls. The stu
dent life outside the classroom and
the research study will supplement that
lived in tlio world of study, by oppor
tunities for participation in some extra
curricula activities and athletics.
If her field of study is so broad that
sufficient resources for research are not
to be had at Bennington, then, during
her last two years, the student may en
roll at another college or university
and finish her requirements there. She
will, however, remain under the super
vision of the Bennington tutors. It
is anticipated that the college will be
sufficiently equipped for all branches
of work and that the members of the
Senior Division will be residence the
last two years. But, as it is realized
that a small college cannot have all the
best facilities of the larger universities,
students will lie permitted to do part
or all of their last two years of study
away from Bennington, taking advan
tage of better libraries or laboratories.
An interesting feature of the college
program is the provision for a long
mid-winter vacation, from Christmas
through the Washington's Birthday
Holiday. This vacation is planned to
allow the students sufficient opportunity
for extended individual research, for
travel and wider contacts, for visiting
metropolitan centers to benefit from
their larger opportunities for culture.
Entrance requirements for this new
woman's college will necessarily be
elastic. Though a high school education
is the minimum, a girl who shows a
mediocre record in all branches will be
rejected in favor of the girl who shows
competence in some specific line, though
her record may show the black mark
of a failure in some preparatory course.
This college will have a. faculty, it
follows, largely drawn from the liberal
minded members of the teaching pro
fession. The directors of the project
realize that in such a college the proper
choice of faculty members is of ex
treme importance, and it is making pro

This academic plan as outlined briefly
above is proving of extreme interest to
educators. Tts board of sponsors boasts
the names of the president of many if
our older, more formal institutions, in
dicating that they are aware of the
place it can fill—a place where rigid
restrictions and demands for credit are
of little interest, and where a con
servative tradition will not stand in the
way of the achievement of liberal
ideas in education.
