50 Freshmen To Enter
Bennett Sept. 14 Enrol
In Special Curriculum
Fifty freshmen who enter
Bennett on September 14 will
be enrolled in a special curricu
lum which its developers hope
will, by the beginning of their
junior year, have them more
advanced than others who en
tered at the same time.
In cooperation with the Insti
tute for Services to Education,
of Washington, D. C. and Edu
cational Services, Inc., of Water
town, Mass., Bennett and 12
other predominately Negro in
stitutions, is structuring a two
year intensive program with a
carefully designed ir)novative
curriculum.
The students will receive spe
cial pre-college counseling to
prepare them for the innovative
aspects of the program which
will differ from what they would
expect to encounter in college.
The curriculum will empha
size ideas and their expression,
mathematics and analytical
thinking, social institutions ?
their nature and change, and a
physical and biological scientific
inquiry. In charge of the pro
gram will be a coordinator of
curriculum development, a coun
selor, four teachers from the
present faculty and four experi
enced teachers from other insti
tutions.
Bennett faculty members have
met for eight weeks with faculty
teams from other cooperating
colleges at Pine Manor Junior
College, Newton. Mass., to work
out details of the curriculum de
sign and to write the materials
they will be teaching in the fall.
Thev met under the direction of
the Curriculum Resources Group
of the TES, in what was known
as the "13 College Summer Cur
riculum Conference."
During their freshman year,
the students will have three
hours of course work in each
subject area and three of enrich
ment. Their sophomore year will
include ten hours in the program ;
and six hours of electives. Be
cause the student-faculty ratio
will be much lower than usual. 1
the students will be able to work j
very closely with their teachers
and receive a great deal of indi- i
vidual attention.
Complimentary to the course
work will be a learning-study j
center where each student ? ? on '
a voluntary basis ?r will be able i
to improve her basic reading and ;
mathematics skills and develop
her ability to study indepen
dently.
More than 1,400 surgeons will
become members (Fellows) of
the American College of Sur
geons the week of Oct. 2-6. 1967,
in Chicago. Membership is
awarded to surgeons who meet
rigid requirements of acceptable
medical education, advanced
training as specialists, and ethi
cal practice. There are now 29,
000 members in 88 countries.
Teacher Education Institute
Conducted At A&T State
"Education today is failing to ?
meet the needs of youth," said i
Dr. Joseph J. Kaufman, direc
tor, Institute for Research on
Human Resources, Pennsylvania
State University, University
Park, Pa.
He was delivering the keynote
address last week at the Teacher
Education Institute at A & T
State University.
He said, "Education, both aca
demic and vocational, at the
elementary, secondary and col
lege levels, is not meeting the
needs of the majority of youth
in preparing them for the world
of work."
He added, "We must now re
examine and change the kind of
education we now need for both
administrators and teachers in
these fields. I would also argue,"
he continued, "that the kind of
education provided by teacher j
colleges for the training of edu
cational administrators and
teachers and for the develop
ment of curriculum is not ade
quate to meet the social and eco- |
nomic problems of the 60's and j
70's.
The point was one of three
which he emphasized in his
presentation. He said society.
ri"htlv or wrongly, is now com
mitted to spending huge sums of
money, assuming that education
is the one important vehicle
through which people may pro
cure better jobs and higher paj
and through which the cycle of
poverty may be broken; voca
tional education must now join
\vi all other education in the
development of broad programs
to meet the needs of all of the
voungsters, those who wiU at
tend college and particularly,
those who wiU not, a"d voca
tional education will have aban
doned its traditional approach in
education, in training for narrow
??kii's to provide broad OTupa
Ho"r' training for youngsters.
"The new approach," he con
cluded "is not only of benefit to
the student, but is consistent
with the capability of the small
college."
Dr H. M. Hamlin, professor
emeri'us at the University of
Illinois, now a consultant with
the Center of Occupational Edu
cation, Raleigh, spoke at the aft
ernoon session on Monday.
