The importance of philosophy for liberal education can hardly be over emphasized, because no other liberal arts discipline performs the three functions - humanistic, integrative and complementary- with which it is primarily concerned. Its humanistic function seeks to make men knowledgeable, sensitive, and articulate; at home not only in the humanistic studies, but in the world of quantity, number, and measurement as well. Man has convictions which, though reasoned, he knows he cannot prove. He knows his values are notoriously relative, yet he must not only have them but believe in them. Philosophy, by wrestling with the questions of what is real, what is knowledge, and what is value, more than fulfills this humanizing function. Lawrence Evans A knowledge of such forces as nationalism, ideology, military power, economic development, etc., is so essential for an understanding of the world and the problems that confront us in the world. A student of internal relations hopefully will be able to encourage certain conditions and discourage others and help promote peace. The individual should be involved in the policy process. The alternative to the study of international relations is ignorance and prejudice about the world in which we live. Ignorance and prejudice are the assertive parents of the twins - suspicion and hatred. Although a knowledgeable citizen may not be able to provide definite and final solutions faced by himself and others, he is likely to appraise the world more realistically. T. R. Reddy The Division of Health Occupation is administratively within the School of Arts, Letters and Science. Two departments are in the Division: Hospital Technology and Nursing. There is a four-year program in medical technology, and two-year nursing and radiologic technology programs. Training for medical technology is specialized, interesting work. Medical technologists' laboratory findings often provide the clues that the physician needs to pinpoint his diagnosis and treatment of disease. They must be educated to understand the scientific theories behind the tests they perform. There are no shortcuts to training in medical technology. But there are dramatically increasing opportunities for employment and advancement. Top Row: Norma Hansen, Nursing; Fay Hanson, Music. Row Two: Evelyn Harris, Music; Keith Harrison, Botany.
