STUDENT PROFICIENCY
DEPENDSjN TEACHERS
8PECIALI8T8 ARE NOT NARROW
MINDED MEN OR WOMEN.
TEACHERS HAVE GREAT WORK
Kind of 8tudents a College or 8chool
Produces Depends oh Teachers
Is the Idea of Professor
Grummann.
"I, for ono, long for tho tlmo when
we Americans may. unite in jUBt prldo
in tho admiration of American litera
ture Amorican architecture, Amorican
painting and American music. When
all is said and done, theso aro tho
highest interests of a country." Such
was tho statement mado by Professor
Grummann, who dqjlvored a locturo at
5 o'clock special convocation on "Ef
ficiency in Education."
In tho courso of his lecture, Profes
sor Grummann criticized tho instruc
tor as boing In niOBt cases tho direct
causo of student Inofllclency, adding
that tho time has como when wo muBt
demand that teaching Bhould become
a profession in tho large BenBo; that
teaching be undertaken by men and
women who havo a largo outlook upon
tho world, a 'largo general training, to
which shall bo added special pro
ficiency in particular lines. Both typos
of training aro as essential to tho
teachers as thoy aro to members of
tho older professions.
Existence of a Dilemma.
By a series of' practical .Illustra
tions, Professor Grummann also
proved tho existenco of a dilemma In
educational Institutions which prob
ably account for bo many "happy-go-lucky"
students. Tho fact as stated is
that tho recitations, of many students

aro mere motions of tho lips; that the
recitation which passes boforo them Is
a kind of dumb show past their com
prehension. Thoro aro many recita
tions of their kind In which a child
assimilates absolutely nothing; Nev
ertheless it is dragged over tho men
tal operations at brdak-neck speed and
becomes dazed and unfit for mental
work of any kind. If Its vitality is
low, it becomes an excellent subject
for St. Vitus danco and Its future Is
wrecked.
At tho end of the school year, Just
as tho student passes from tho hands
of tho Instructor, ho or sho sees that
Jt needed training Jn self expression,
oncouragement In solf assertion, train
ing which It did not receive because
of 'an Inability on tho part of the
teacher to diagnose the case proporly
and in time. It Is qulto possible, how
ever, that tho revelations may bo of a
still moro disconcerting nature; that
a number of students have steadily
receded while under this teacher's su
pervision, largely because something
was at work which he or sho could
not detopt.
Teacher Works Under a System.
Immediately following this state
ment, however, the professor partially
exonerated tho teacher In tho follow
ing words: "Let it bo understood that
I do not blame this teachor personally.
Sho works under a system which ic
based upon proficiency in tho subject,
not upon the ultimate efficiency of the
pupil. If sho were to neglect the sub
ject In order to treat the pupil in a
moro scientific manner, sho would
probably como to grief. This Insist
ence upon proficiency Is quite proper
li proporly understood. Efficient pu
pils will bo proficient, but to makq this
proficiency tho aim of Instruction Is
as absurd as tho course, of tho physi
cian who oxhauBtsal of his art In
having a patient acquire skill In tak
ing medicine or carrying out hygienic
gymnastics skillfully." .
Another very 'interesting stand
taken by Professor Grummann wa
that relative to the professional man,
In which ho said: "Many of pu shakfe
.your hoads. doubtfully and exclalihl
This Is tho day of specialization.' My
anBwdr Is that broad training for ef
ficiency Is tho only poBslblo sound'
boslB for specialization. Tho man who
Is only a specialist Is absolutely noth
ing. Tho specialist is not n man who
from tho beginning digs a narrow
groovo and stays In that groovo for
ever after. If 'ho would Buccood, ho
must bring a largo and manifold ox
porlonco to boar upon a special prob
lorn, Training Not Too Broad.
No BpoclaliBt has ovor lamontod tho
fact that his training was too broad.
Ono of tho most successful criminal
lawyors that this country has ovor
produced Is known to havo divided his
tlmo between law and gonoral lltonp-broon

a man must bo an oxport In human

In conclusion, Professor Grummann
said: "Tho schools that aro really sot
ting up tho Ideal of ofllcloncy are
thoso that aro . making tho child the
centor of Intorost; thoBo that aro try
ing to train mon and women who aro
ofilclont physically, montally and spir
itually. 'By tholr fruits, yo shall
know thorn.' Tho toachlng which I
havo suggested Is dl;cult it demands
abundant training and Insight. That
tho day of such training la at hand Is
attoBtod by tho groat movement In
this Btnto In tho dlrootlon of 'tho pro
fessional training of teachers. Tho
normal schools havo dono oxcollont
frontior work and tho untvorslty has
tho need of groator work In this
dtroctlon, and aB a consoquonco has
