Teachers And Social Leadership, Emil E. Samuelson
Teachers And Social Leadership, Emil E. Samuelson
All Faculty Scholarship for the College of Education and Professional Studies
The argument that the schools can do a great deal to direct and facilitate social change seems valid when we consider the school's sphere of influence. Today a million teachers are entrusted with the task of educating more than 25,000,000 pupils. For twelve years these millions of boys and girls are under the direction of school teachers--certainly no other professional or civic group has an opportunity of like magnitude. If the teaching group should effectively unite upon a comprehensive program its influence on social change would be considerable.
