Dean Few Hakes Interesting State
ment of Views About Organization.
; (From The Trinity Chronicle)
Dean W. P. Few, who has late
ly returned from the meeting of
the Association of Colleges and
Preparatory Schools of the South
ern States, makes the following
interesting statement of bis views
as to the achievement and future
of the association:
The Association of Colleges
and Preparatory Schools of the
Southern States, which held its
annual session in Birmingham,
November 7 and 8, exists for the
promotion of better educational
standards and ideals. There is
still in Southern education too
much individualism, even too
much pursuit of selfish ends rather
than consecrated and co-operative
effort in a great cause. Hence the
woefully disorganized state of
Southern education which crits
aloud for reform.
In this movement towards bet
ter things the Association of Col
leges and Preparatory Schools ha
done good service; but it has not
thus far been able to accomplish
all that it might have accomplish
ed. To overthrow evils that are
grounded and rooted in institu
tions and civilizations always de
mands a fight; and I feel that this
Association has not thrown itself
into the fight for educational re
form with sufficient energy and
courage. This is not to say, how
ever, that there has not been con
scientious effort to better our con
ditions; and especially Chancellor
Kirkland, of Vanderbilt, whc has
been the secretary from the be
ginning, deserves all praise for
what be has tried to do. And too,
some good has been accomplish
ed. The majority of the colleges
belonging to the association now
maintain respectable standards for
admission and graduation. To
show this I append a list of these
colleges and the association's
rating of the admission require
ments enforced by these several
colleges. The ratings are given
in terms of units now everywhere
in use. These are in each case
the minimum requirements for
admission to a degree course.

The Association now requires
colleges belonging to it to de
mand for admission to all degree
courses at least ten entrance units.
The necessary one year's notice
was served at Birmingham that at
the next annual meeting the by
laws would be so changed as to
require fourteen units of appli
cants for degrees and at least ten
units of irregular students. This
is the standard entrance lequire-
nient enforced by ihe better class
colleges throughout the United
States and is therefore now gen
erally known as the national
standard. This change of the by
laws will doubtless be adopted
one year hence.
With this much accomplished,
it is in order for the more pro
gressive colleges throughout the
South the colleges, that is, that
seek first the common -good and
are not content to be mere time
servers it is now in order for
such colleges to band, together
along with the secondary schools
to build up a genuine system of
education in the South, a system
thoroughly organized from top to
bottom. This is a crying 'need in
North Carolina today. The col
leges should boutstly maintain an
entrance standard sufficiently high
to keep students in the schools
until tbey are fitted for college
work and, on the other hand, the
schools all along the line should
be made strong enough to give
adequate preparation for college.
1 am sure I can speak for Trin
ity College and say that we intend,
with renewed purpose, to go on
with this great work in North
Carolina.
Dr. Lyman Abbott on "The
South in Education.
Dr. Lyman Abbott, writing in
a recent issue of the Outlook, on
The South in Education," in
closing says:
"Here this semi-reminiscent ar
ticle might properly come to its
close, but I cannot close it with
out a simple and brief recogni
tion of the service which has
been rendered by great education
al leaders in the South, to whose
energy, enthusiasm and sacrifice
this revolution in conditions is
due. The Outlook has from time
to time mentioned their service,
and the story of their work need
therefore to be repeated here, nor
could it be even in outline. It
must be enough to enter on this
roll of honor the names of men
too little known throughout the
nation, whose services as builders
of their country overtops that of
many men more trumpeted by
fame: Dr. J. L. M. Curry, ol
Virginia; Chancellor Walter Bar
nard Hill, ot Georgia; Dr. Edwin
A. Aldtrman, President of the
Universityof Virginia; Dr. Charles
D. Mclvcr, of North Carolina; Dr
John C. Kilgo, President of Trin
ity College, Durham, N. C; and
last, but no means least, General
Robert E. Ice, who, laying down
the sword and taking op the pen,
by the homage which he paid to
popular education when he ac
cepted the presidency of Wash
ington and Lee University, set an
example which has proved an in
spiration, first to his own State,
then to all the Southern States,
and lastly and too tardily to the
whole nation."
