REPORT READY ON BENEFITS OF * COLLEGE WORK
Liberal Arts Data Given Dean Ratti at Butler; Health Session: Set.
' What Butler University liberal arts students get out of a fouryear education was explained today in a special faculty committee report. The report was made, Dean Gino A. Ratti said, because of a growing demand on the part of faculties and rating agencies for a clear definition of the objectives of a liberal arts course. According to the report submitted to Dean Ratti, such a. course offers the student basic ‘truths gained ‘from past experiences, teaches him how to go about learning and how to think systematically, how to evaluate human activity morally and ethically and gives him the opporfamity for creative effort.
Asked by Association
‘ Dean Ratti said the report was ‘made, following the suggestion of the North Central Association, college rating agency, that colleges explain what they are trying to teach. It is the plan of the association, he said, to rate the various colleges on the basis of ‘how nearly they approximate their objectives. The Butler University report was concluded after more than-a year's study. The annual meeting of the Indiana Student Health Association will be held on the Butler University campus Saturday. Among health officials and educators speaking at. the one-day session will be President James W. Putnam’ of Butler, Dr. Murvel T. Garner of Earlham, Dr. Robert N. McCormic of Ball State, James J. Paterson of Wabash, Ralph Noyer, dean of Ball State, Dr. Paul D. Crimm, director. of the Boehne Tuberculosis Hospital at Evansville, Murzay A. Auerbach, executive secretary of the Indiana Tuberculosis Association, and Dr. W. W. Bauer, director of the American Medical Association’s ‘bureau of health and physical education.
