Report Of The Curriculum Conference Held At Rollins College, January 19-24, 1931, John Dewey

Books about Rollins College and Winter Park

In January 1931, Rollins hosted a Curriculum Conference, with the distinguished educator John Dewey as chairman. Leading educators gathered to discuss a number of matters, including core curricula, general education and purpose of a bachelor’s degree as a whole. The resulting recommendations–which emphasized "Individualization in Education"–were implemented by Rollins in the fall of 1931. So provocative were these innovations that Sinclair Lewis, in his Stockholm address accepting the Nobel Prize in literature, listed Rollins as one of only four colleges in the United States doing the most to encourage creative work in contemporary literature.

Question: Wood is opaque to light but is easily penetrated by X rays. The latter, however, are stopped by some kinds of clear glass. Does this not show that light and X rays are of different nature?

On Meeting With A Fox, Roy L. Abbott

Science Bulletin

It is rarely that one sees a wild animal at its best. As a hunter, I have shot many beautiful birds and small mammals, but on retrieving them, in spite of my elation at their capture, I have always had the haunting feeling that the dead thing in my hand was not the creature at which I had aimed. As an anatomist, I have dissected scores of animals, but always do I realize that the stiff, cold thing under my scalpel is not quite the thing it was when alive.
