The results of the study of extracurricular
activities at Wellesley
College, made possible through a
grant by the Ford Foundation,
have been formulated during the
summer and will be released in
arly November.
Mi s Grace Hawk, professor in
the department
of English, and
Miss Helen Russell, professor in
the department
of Mathematics,
working on the study throughout
the summer, drew their findings
not only from the Roper questionnaire and time chart with which
the student body of last year are
familiar, but also from three other
rcasearch instruments with which
the college at large may be unacquainted:
self-study
analyses by
the organiz~tions themselves; precollege questionnaires
sent to applicants for admission to the present freshman class and the class of
1958; post-college
questionnaires
sent to alumnae of the classes of
'49 and '51.
Survey Coverage Extensive
The examinations by the extracurricular
groups of themselves
were discursive studies not capable
of tabulation. They were concerned
with how well members of the organization considered the aims and
purposes of the group to be met
by its current operation. The precollege questionnaire
tried to determine, in the light of the applicant's high school extra-curricular experience, her attitude toward extra-curricular
activity upon
Jun iors at Work

questionnaire

Report

Proposed revis10n of . Yale University's
existing
undergraduate
program was revealed this week,
with the publication of a ixty
-page report by Yale's Committee
-0n General Education.
Attacking the current over-emphasis on extracurricular
activities,
and the unlimited, free elective system, the Committee blamed "stu dent immaturity,"
reflecting "the
adolescent
compulsion to go the
way of the crowd, for instance," for
the relegation of academic inter•-ests to a secondary place in college life.

General Exam Aft er Two Years

The Committee
advocates
a
modification of Yale 's curriculum
to provide an education which is
"cont inuous rather
than
fragmental, coordinated
rather than
merely sequential," in addition to
urging the return of the academic
program of the college to its place
of primary significance.
Under the new program more
r sponsibility would be placed on
the student during the first two
undergraduate
years when his attendanc e at discussion and lecture
classes would be voluntary. At the

To Irene Cumming '54, a shorthand cours e tak en at the We lles ley High School her fre hman year
has b een "strictly invaluable"

providing her with both summer

stressed the "economic security"
she felt she has gained through

retained
her shorthand
skill in
spite of inconsist ent use of it.
"I cannot recommend courses in
typing and shorthand too heartily ,"

N.S.A.MEETING IS OPEN TO STUDENT BODY:
DELEGATES WlLL REPORT ON CONFERENCES
mation in t he futur e.
The question aros e last year as
to whether NS A shoul d re mai n an
org anizat ion on t he W ell esl ey
cam pus , as it ha d not seeme d extr em ely effect ive in the past. Sal ly ex pressed her opinion that Welles ley should keep its membership.
CG has a n unusually close relat ionsh ip with t he administration
and is a llowed more freedom and
power in dealing with student
problems than is the average college government.
Wellesley has
much information to offer other
student
governments
and thus
would seem to have a rightful
place in the organization.
Also,
membership in NSA gives Welles ley another
official channe l of
communication with other student
bodies and another sounding board
for new policies.
Rothschild Defines USNSA
In her report on the national
Congress, Joan Rothschild offers
the following as her understanding of US SA. "It is an organization of American college students
who have applied their ide a listic
theories to what they want as
students. It is practical expel"ience
with democratic government - its
aims, ideal s, and frustrations.
Finally it is a reflection of Ameri-

and outli ne its own pro gr am for
th is year, at a dinner m ee t in g open
to all members of the college, Oct ober 20.
V a lue of Congress'

Suggestions

From August 24t h until Sep tember 2nd, the delegates met at
Ohio State University. T aking as
t!h ir theme - Strengthening
the
F orc es of Freedom, they met in
committee and plenary essions to
discuss various student problems
and draw up resolutions.
Joan Rothschild, '54, chairman of
the Wellesley delegation and president of NSA on campus, states in
her report, "The Congress brings
these problems
into focus and
its organization
shows
through
the type of apparatus which will
have to be used in the solution of
the problem. The program of action remains in the minds of the
deleg ates and is therefore dependent for its design and implementation upon the ideas and enthusiasm of the delegates to the Congr ess."
Delegates

wav Idea

A problem of particular interest
to the Wellesley delegation, which
also included Eliza Taggart '54 and
N ancy Lurie, '54, was that of the
adjustment
of foreign students in
other colleges. Often these stu dents are not assimilated
into
their college com munities a1:d may
go so far as to se t up their own
student governments.
Finding no
similar situation at Welle?ley, the
delegates were able to cite Wel lesley policy and offer h elpful suggestions. In return they received
valuable training in par liamentary
and legislative
procedure
which
may be put into practice here.
Both Wellesley delegates were
elected to regional offices for the
coming year.
J oan Rothschild

"The love of God can make us behave responsibly
for our sin,"
challenged Rev. Ferdinand J. D enbeaux, associate pr ofessor in the
departm~nt of Biblical History, in
bis sermon for the World-wide
Communion Service in the Wellesley Chapel, Sunday, October 4, at
11 o'clock .
Prea ching from the text of I
John 1 :8-10, Mr. Den beaux decla r ed th at n on e of u s is exempt
fro m sin. If it is imp os ible for us
to admit our sin , it is impossibl e
to believe in God. Communion, he
stated, calls to mind our sin and
affirms our faith in the redemptive love of God. The theme "God
is Love" remains the cornerstone
" 'If we confess
of Christianity.
our sins, He is faithful anto forgive our sins,'" he quoted.
R ejects Cynical Age
Adrrfitting that we must · refute
the easy optimi m of the preceding generation, Mr. Denbeaux cautioned that we were cre a ted to
believe in God, .and must turn
away from the cynicism of today.
"We can understand
either love
or sin, but not both ," he cr iticized.
"U n i v e r a 1 and problemless
peace is not for our time or any
time , ' Mr . Denbe a ux acknowledged. The dimensions of tragedy
that face us in the world should
not cause us to lose faith, however , h e reassured.
Christian Faith Creative
"God recreates histo r y as h e recreates tho se who have crossed
the threshold into -his love ," said
Mr. Denb eaux. We come from
wha t we ar e to comm union; we
ar e not lost. "Christiani t y is not
a wall plas t er ed wit h virtue; but
a deep cry of need, and a gasp
of fai th ," he conclud ed .
Mr. Denbea ux ha s been associated with W ellesley since 1946.
He came h er'7 a ft er ser ving as
chaplain in Gen. Patton's
Third
r my i11 Europe. He received his
B.S. de gr ee fr om Elmhu rs t College in 1936, a nd his Bachelor of
Di vinity and Mast er of Sacred
Theology
degrees
from
Union
Theological Seminary in 1939 and
1940. He was ministe r of a parish
in Rebersburg, Pennsylvania, from
_
1941 to 1943.
At present Mr. Denbeaux is a
member of th e Biblical Colloquium
and Society of Biblical Literature.

When you smoke Chesterfield it's
so satisfying to know that you are
getting the one cigarette that's low
in nicotine, highest in quality.
A fact proved by chemical
analyses of the country's six
leading cigarette brands.
And it's so satisfying to know that
a doctor reports no adverse effects
to the nose, throa-t and sinuses
from smoking Chesterfield.
The doctor's report is part of
a program supervised by a
responsible independent research laboratory and is based
on thorough bi-monthly examinations of a group of Chesterfield smokers over a period of
a year and a half.
