Ramblin Are the humanities and social sciences essential to the education of an engineer, scientist, manager or architect? If so, what function do they serve? What changes has Georgia Tech made in recent years to fulfill these functions? Dr. David Comer of English and Dr. Pat Kelly of Social Science address themselves to these questions in this issue.

There is no necessary conflict, either in a given individual or in general philosophy, between the humanities and social sciences and the sciences and engineering. In fact they each have something to offer the other, in terms of fresh approach and enrichment, and the complementary result of their combination is greater than either could accomplish apart from the other. A liberal arts graduate who has had no math or science at the college level is just as incomplete as an engineer who has never turned from his slide rule and steam charts to contemplate a poet's view of life or beauty of expression. A society oriented solely toward things and pragmatic action has abandoned its soul, and one oriented solely toward thought and meaning without action will vegetate and die.

In fairness I must confess my bias, if it's not already obvious. I feel Georgia Tech would benefit from degree-granting programs in the humanities and the social sciences. Such programs would create a stronger enticement to outstanding scholars in these fields to come to Tech or, if already here, to stay. The opportunity to work with students earning a degree in his subject area is one of the rewards a college professor normally enjoys, and is an aid to his professional advancement. Many have argued that a solely "service" department is necessarily weaker than a degree-granting department, and that a department suffering second-class status is handicapped in its broader role of providing basic courses in service to the other degree-granting schools and departments at Tech. Finally, a number of students, attracted to science and technology, find their primary strengths

or interests lie in areas of liberal arts.

These students, though still interested in relating their lifework to technology, must now either transfer to another university or must earn a degree not oriented directly toward their chosen field.

Against this point of view are arrayed some pretty strong arguments. Granted, Georgia Tech even now offers the latitude of pre-professional programs in law and medicine. Just this year a bright young mathematics graduate from Tech entered graduate study in English at the University of North Carolina with enough electives in English to be accepted in good standing.

The Board of Regents of the State of Georgia has adopted a basically-sound, wise policy of avoiding the duplication of degree programs within the University System. They feel it's unnecessary to offer a degree in English at Georgia Tech when Georgia State and other state universities offer the same degree.

Such duplication dilutes funds to create a number of mediocre programs instead of concentrating resources to sustain one, or a few, outstanding programs.

Some states today are following an opposite course and are undermining the strong academic programs that they already have. Needless to say, Georgia Tech has benefitted by being the engineering institution in the state.

Furthermore, Georgia Tech is faced with the problem of allocating a limited and less than desired amount of money among already existing academic programs; it makes sense to emphasize your areas of strength rather than allowing them to languish while you establish new, unseasoned programs at great expense.

Y e t . . . there must be a way. Perhaps a series of "minors," such as that in technical writing currently proposed by the Department of English, or those in the various areas currently proposed by the Department of Social Science, could be instituted as a compromise or temporary measure. Ultimately, an area of study designated science and the humanities could conceivably be developed with a well-defined and unique scope that would meet the letter and the spirit of the Regents' guidelines, o

Dr. Joseph M. Pettit—A Man of Convictions

with

i

No Fixed Notions

By BEN MOON He's a quietly confident man, unassuming and genuine, wearing an air of competence born of overkill. He speaks easily and to the point, punctuating a gentle wit with a quick smile. Dr. Joseph Mayo Pettit visited the campus on October 11 for the first time since being named the eighth president of Georgia Tech, meeting with students, faculty, alumni, and the press during a whirlwind day before returning to Stanford. The n e w first lady, the former Florence Rowell West, reflected the same sincere w a r m t h as she became acquainted with the campus and the people she would soon call home. As she left the student meeting early—"to go brush some of the cobwebs from the home on Tenth Street," as Student Body President Chris Bagby expressed it—the students to a person stood in respect.

Home for the Pettits for the past twenty-four years has been Stanford University, where for the past thirteen Dr. Pettit has led the engineering school to national prominence. Stanford now ranks first in the country in both electrical and mechanical engineering, and high in chemical, civil, and other fields. He will be Georgia's only member of the National Academy of Engineering, the nation's most distinguished engineering association. Dr. Thomas E. Stelson, Tech's Dean of Engineering, called Pettit "the most distinguished engineering dean in the country. I think its great—Tech is most fortunate." Dr. Paul Weber stated that all Tech's presidents have had areas of outstanding strength, but "this man tops them all in experience and eminence in engineering education before coming to Tech. His record at Stanford indicates that he provided an outstanding degree of

leadership in administering a big graduate and research program."

Dr. Pettit, in turn, w a s complementary about Tech. "I've heard some marvelous things about Tech, Atlanta and the South, and I want to be part of it. A lot of Stanford Ph.D. graduates are already on the faculty at Tech, and their enthusiastic reports were an important influence in my decision."

Pettit predicts no major changes for at least a year until he becomes oriented.

"I have no fixed notions. I'm impressed with Tech's current quality and its inspiration to climb higher. We will move toward even higher s t a n d a r d s and stronger graduate education." To have a w a r d e d its first Ph.D. about 1950, Pettit feels Tech's graduate program has made remarkable progress.

The new president has some definite views about the place .of an institution of higher education in society. "The major contribution Tech can make to society is graduates armed with facts rather than rhetoric. We can train young people to work changes over a lifetime through their careers. Society's problems aren't all technical, but they can be solved by teams of the best people in all fields— engineers, economists, politicians. In addition, an academic institution can take the time necessary for basic research that develops new knowledge rather than putting band-aids on existing techniques."

Pettit's guidance at Stanford has resulted in serious consideration of a student-proposed satellite to beam educational television programs to underdeveloped countries. "A graduate school should have some outreach to see real people and problems. It must be a good laboratory to learn, but by applying

Dr. Pettit's meeting with the students was an open, frank, question-and-answer session.

Dr. Joseph M . P e t t i t (continued] the right techniques we might be a help in the solution of real problems. I don't want Tech to be an ivory tower, but at the same time I don't want the myopia of looking only at today's problems."

In continuing education as a service to society, "television courses for executives such as those at Stanford are good for both the men and their companies, but they're expensive. Yet, we might as well use all the media we can.

It's hard for a person to continue his education after he has a job, a family and a mortgage; we should do everything possible to make it easier."

In addressing students concerning their role in the governing of Tech, Dr. Pettit stated "there are past and future students as well as present students—I'm mindful of t h a t . . . . I'm not in favor of a narrow academic role for a university, ignoring the outside-class activities of students. The integrity of an institution is enhanced by attention to the whole of a student's life. You can't have it both ways—all rights and no responsibilities.

A better balance is limited rights and limited responsibilities.

"Students certainly have a role as members of the university community, and we have yet to find the best combination of student participation.

Students are here a short time, and the professors and staff are here a long time; there's a considerable difference in investment of time, money, and career.

All groups should be heard; loud cries for representation usually result when a group feels no one is listening to them."

As for student activism, "I a l w a y s expect engineering students to be mature and concerned, but some of the destructive activism is intolerant and counterproductive; it won't really help the situation. I'm not making any predictions, but it seems this type of negative activism is declining."

Turning to academic affairs: "Teaching and research are not necessarily in

conflict; a good teacher will be a good researcher usually, though exceptions do exist. Both should be recognized and rewarded properly. Admittedly research is easier to judge in terms of papers and books, whereas teaching is semi-private.

At Stanford I instituted a faculty rating system—the faculty welcomed it—in which we attempted to get a really good measure of what the students thought of a professor. It's now being used regularly throughout the university. It's not only possible to reward good teaching; it's being done."

As for the pass-fail system, "it's being overdone today, though it has some merit.

Many colleges had a completely non-grade system years ago but changed because of the practical problems involved, and now it's a national fad again. It's fine if it reduces grade pressures in courses outside your major field, but in your field you need to k n o w how well you're doing if you're trying to develop some sort of professional competence."

The education of engineers used to be too applied, and didn't treat fundamentals sufficiently. "There's nothing wrong with an engineering graduate learning a specific job after he leaves school. It's a short-range convenience to an employer for a person to be able to immediately walk onto a job, but in the long run he's more valuable and flexible if he's wellgrounded in fundamentals. Employers will have to assume an increasingly larger proportion of the applied education of new professionals, with the campus emphasizing what it does best. We're going to have to put more of the burden for education on the later years of a person's life."

Interdisciplinary undertakings are natural to engineering, "for engineering by nature is not a solitary endeavor; an engineer often works with other specialists. Interdisciplinary teams have been effective for years, but I'm very The Georgia Tech Alumnus

At the press conference Pettit fielded questions with candor and intelligence.

The meetings with faculty leaders were cordial, a promise of constructive relationships in years ahead.

leery of a self-appointed 'generalist.' An academic institution would do best to stick to the established disciplines."

How about beefing up the liberal arts at Tech? "Tech is already more than just engineering; we're covering a broad range of activities. I would be very cautious about saying expansion in other areas is imminent. Any professional should be broadly educatedâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;he must u n d e r s t a n d peopleâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;but such studies should be oriented toward existing programs. I've been active in such organizations as the Society for the History of Technology, for it's important that an engineer learn how his thought fits in with the Fall 1971

Arriving at 5:00 a.m. and departing after an eveningalumni reception, the Pettits were fresh and responsive during a long day.

mainstream of society, but we can't be all things to all people The social sciences and humanities are often preoccupied with reproducing their own kind rather than providing liberal arts for non-majors. I would have to look at it further, but I should think a humanities degree at Tech would have fairly low priority. There are a lot of other places to get in-depth education in the humanities."

So at first sight, Dr. Joseph M. Pettit seems to be an open-minded man of convictions . . . fair but firm, as some have described him. In the w o r d s of Regents Chairman Lee Burge, "He is just the man to bring us the leadership Tech needs." n

The Most Famous Run i

t w a s the first time in history an entire team had been inducted into the Georgia Tech Athletic Hall of Fame en masse, and it had taken a revision of the bylaws to boot. And here they were, eighteen fit men in their early sixties, reliving those days forty-three years ago.

The Georgia Tech Lettermen's Club luncheon before the Army game honored the members of Tech's 1928 teamâ&#x20AC;&#x201D; undefeated conference and national champions who edged out a favored California team 8-7 in the Rose Bowl of 1929. Captain Peter Pundt accepted the team's induction into the Hall of Farne.

team-mate who barely pulled him back at the one-yard line.

That run by Riegels seemed to be the one event of the entire championship year the team relished most. A film clip of the game brought the 14th Annual Tournament of Roses to life again, and it was January 1, 1929. The gray image flickered onto the screen, 22 young men bursting from their formations into a jerky battle for space and possession.

Tech halfback "Stumpy" Thomason fumbled, and in the scramble Riegels, California's center, scooped up the ball.

He headed for his goal, w a s hit, turned around, hit again, spiraling outward from the center of the mob until he saw daylight and a goal, clear, ahead of him.

Streaking out in an unnatural speed on the ancient celluloid, he w a s giving all he had for his chance to make a thrilling touchdown, maybe make the difference in winning the game. Pounding feet behind him. Wind in his face, aching chest, harder, every ounce of his young strength, goal right ahead, there it is, come on, come on, a strong hand on his arm, pulling him urgently around but not down, it's Lorn, what, what, Omigod no, turn back, follow Lorn, he's gonna run interference, oh no, here they are, and then Waddey hit smashing tumbling smacking, then they're untangling, off, and the runner sits on the ground stunned as the stands scream in disbelief. Then the disbelief is awful realization and the young man is inconsolable. His team-mates comfort the sobbing lad, even Tech's "Stumpy" Thomason giving him a sympathetic clap on the shoulder.

There but for the grace of God The image flickers from the screen.

Then they show it again. The drama hasn't faded a bit with the second time.

Ironically, for years many people have heard that Riegels was responsible for Tech winning its first bowl game and 12

thought he w a s actually a member of the Tech squad. On that September 25, 1971 the Tech Lettermen's Club made it official, presenting both Lorn and Riegels membership cards.

Roy Riegels, accepting his card, allowed he felt he had earned his membership. "I w a s telling Stumpy I really w a s sore at him, because if he had never fumbled that ball it never would have happened."

Stumpy, who w a s presented a bear by the California team before leaving to return to Atlanta, kidded in reply that heck, "I feel like I made Roy Riegels famous."

An apocalyptic story was told that Lom really wanted Riegels to lateral him the ball when he turned him around at the goal line, but that Riegels replied "Giddoutta here, Benny, this is my ball!"

As all meetings of organizations must, this one had a short business session to approve the slate of new officers. New member Lom, tongue in cheek, seconded the motion that the slate be adopted as proposed.

Souvenir wooden footballs for Lom and Riegels, then the adjournment, the handshaking and greeting. And the reflection. Riegels and Lom, reliving with sporting good humor what must have been a moment of supreme humiliation in their lives, even coming the entire span of the continent to do so. Some members of the Tech team also came from great distances to share in the memory of a great year and to renew old friendships, men fine in character and strong in body in the autumn of their years. They played their hearts out to win, but kept it in perspective. Sportsmanship, lighthearted good humor, comradeship, health of body and mind, win or lose ... after all, even though some lose sight of it, aren't those the real purposes of collegiate athletics. 째 The Georgia Tech Alumnus

Jack F. Glenn

Alumnus Jack F. Glenn is Chairman of the Board of Citizens and Southern National Bank, one of the largest and most prestigious banks in the Southeast. When he graduated from Georgia Tech in the depression year of 1932 with a degree in general science he considered himself lucky to get a job.

"Coca-Cola company w a s mailing out a cookbook, so I stuffed envelopes in the mailroom at $60 per month."

This assignment led to a service route and considerable travel. "I could see the route up would involve a lot of moving around, and I didn't feel that w a s any w a y to raise a family. I had just married, so when Dick Courts offered me a job during Christmas of 1935 I accepted." The job with Courts & Co. in the bookkeeping department led to Glenn's admission as a general partner in the firm in 1942.

Later that year he entered the U.S. Navy, not sure whether he would receive a commission or not; "my R.O.T.C. commission had expired two years prior.

I had been busy keeping up with my profession, learning as much as possible about investments, and hadn't had time to play sailor." But he did receive the commission, and w a s first assigned to a wooden "Pogy" (fishing) boat out of Jacksonville, hunting submarines . . .

"God knows w h a t we would've done if we'd found one." Next he was assigned to intelligenceâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;O.S.S. "training spies for submarine landings, also some of our own folks as frogmen. But I wanted back in the middle of the action as a line Navy officer, so I requested a transfer and was assigned to the battleship U.S.S. Washington."

Distinguished in Service Action it w a s , and his battle record reads like a roster of the Philippine Campaign: Second Battle of the Philippine Sea, Yap, Peleiu, Saigon, Iwo Jima, Okinawa, and more.

Following his discharge in 1945 he continued with Courts & Co. until 1951, when he accepted a position as Assistant President of C&S. On the preceding December 31 the bank's total deposits had amounted to $325 million; today total deposits are in the neighborhood of $1.5 billion. Mills B. Lane stated at the time, "In joining C&S, Jack Glenn brought knowledge and experience in the investment field, and a deep association with the business and community life of Atlanta." On December 12, 1967 Glenn was named Chairman of the Board.

As a student at Tech Jack Glenn started out in an engineering specialty, then transferred to the general science curriculum. He is opposed to excessive specialization. "I'll never forget taking an optional course in economicsâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;I believe Professor Shepard w a s teaching itâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;and being taught some theories that economists at the time considered immutable laws. Then the real depression hit, and all the theories were blown to bits. The prof threw the book a w a y and just began to talk about life in general.

Anything. He gave some of the best sex education lectures I've ever heard. I decided it w a s stupid to specialize, yet I wanted more engineering than the commerce major offered. I've never yet regretted the smorgasbord of courses I took. In my opinion true education teaches you to think, and in most engineering courses you think through to definite conclusions more so than in Fall 1971

/.-

liberal arts courses. Take math for example; you work a problem through to one single correct answer, and there's no doubt that's the correct answer. You can take a question in history and expound upon it, but the a n s w e r you arrive at depends on your individual judgement. Some liberal arts and business courses are a desirable leavening, however; I feel that technical graduates who don't receive enough will be more likely to hit an early ceiling in their career."

While a student, Jack Glenn w a s a member of SAE, ODK, Phi Delta Phi, Skull and Key, Koseme, Scabbard and Blade, the Bulldog Club, and ANAK. "I had an enjoyable student life. I wanted to become a football player, but with 135 pounds on a 6'1" frame it just wasn't in the cards. I became a manager, and knew all the players of the day. About that time George Griffin w a s making his reputation as International All-time President of the Sackbrain Club."

Glenn describes his most traumatic experience as the day he and a friend were caught discussing their beloved sport, golf, in biology class. The professor sentenced them each to write a 10,000-word thesis tracing the kidney system from the amoeba through man.

"We not only didn't want to do all that work, but it sure would have interfered with our golf. Dr. Skiles worked out other penance for us."

He w a s excused from military drill for the first few years because of his activity as a football manager, but his senior year, being a good student in military classwork, he w a s made a (Continued on page 16) 15

company commander. He was in trouble, because "I didn't know a thing about drill. My salvation w a s one of the tall boys in the company who had gone to a military prep school. He w a s a fraternity brother and a friend, and besides I threatened to beat hell out of him if he didn't help me out. We worked it out this way: he would say the proper commands under his breath, I would repeat them aloud, then I would jump out of the w a y so I wouldn't be run down before I found out which w a y the company w a s going to move."

Did it work?

"Our company won the drill competition at Grant field that y e a r . . . we were awarded a loving cup.

"The competition w a s followed by a dance that lasted almost all night, and I had to be on campus early, so I didn't go to bed that night. I didn't even touch liquor, but when I showed up with bloodshot eyes that morning I think Dr. Gibson, the geology prof, must have thought I had tied one on. He w a s cool toward me afterward."

Dr. Crenshaw taught him French.

"There were several ways to pass his course; since he w a s the lacrosse coach, o n e w a y w a s to go out for lacrosse, but that was legalized mayhem. And he w a s the typical absentminded professor; he would go down the roll alphabetically when calling on the class to read aloud, and you could count down the paragraphs in the book and predict which paragraph

16

he would ask you to read. Or you could swap seats with one of your friends and have him read for you, and he would never know it."

Things don't really ever change much.

"The faculty and students were especially close when the school w a s that small. Professor Gibson used to take his geology class down to the fall line to dig in the field for fossils. You knew everyone in your class, and the old infirmary w a s the farthest building from the administration building. None of the students had automobiles, so there w a s no parking problem. My father and I and old Dr. Brittain used to frequent the same fishing camp in Florida, so we became well acquainted. One quarter I made the honor roll by the grace of God, and when he came to my name he announced to the assembly 'well, my ol' fishing pal Jack Glenn gets an award!'

He was a very gentle man, a fine person."

The father of Jack Glenn, William Harper Glenn, w a s one of the first names on the rolls at Georgia Tech. He graduated in 1891 with a degree in mechanical engineering, served as President of the Alumni Association, and w a s the Alumni Distinguished Service A w a r d recipient for the year 1936, the third year the award was made. Jack and his wife, the former Anne Alston of Atlanta, have raised four sons while maintaining a level of activity in community affairs that would be a credit to a full-time worker. To name just a few activities, past and present: Trustee and Major Firms Division The Georgia Tech Alumnus

Jack Glenn's school years were filled with typical undergraduate activities such as fraternity capers (seated in cart, far left) and Navy cruises (third photo from left, in sailor hat). The tall, likeable young man was a leader among his peers.

In business, he is or has been Vice President and Director of the Citizens and Southern Holding Company; Director of the Graniteville Co.; director of the Georgia International Life Insurance Co.; member of the executive council, Georgia Bankers Association; member of the legislative advisory Committee, American Bankers Association; and member, Association of Reserve City Bankers. He is also a director of numerous social organizations.

We haven't begun to list his Georgia Tech-related activities. He is past president of the Georgia Tech Foundation; is a past member of the Georgia Tech Athletic Board; has worked with the joint Tech-Georgia Development Fund as co-chairman at the city, state and national level, this year as key gifts chairman; and is presently serving his second term as a trustee of the Georgia Tech National Alumni Association.

These activities haven't been simply empty listings to his name; they have represented work and, Glenn admits, personal growth experiences. "Some of the problems—the deepest problems—that have arisen since my days at Tech are those related to integration. Ivan Allen, one of my closest friends, asked me to serve on the housing authority, assuring Fall 1971

me it wasn't a time-consuming job. Well, we met for a full evening at least twice a month, and every other Monday night we went into the housing projects, , all this for more than six months.

The authority w a s sued numerous times.

On one occasion we were held hostage, locked into a room. I kidded Ivan, 'if this isn't a time-consuming job, you take it.'

But it was a most rewarding experience, because I learned more about the problems of the black man than I could have by reading reams of articles." The practical man comes back sharply as a smile creases his tanned, rugged face: "I won't philosophize from there."

But do philosophize, Jack Glenn; what has been perhaps your greatest satisfaction in life? The question surprises him. He's apparently been so busy actually achieving meaning and satisfaction that he's never stopped to think about it.

"Oh, off the top of my head I would say working with people. I know that's a trite motherhood and flag expression, but it's true. Watching people grow and develop, working with them, having them help you develop.

Recognizing needs in an organization and solving them with people, and that includes such things as the Joint Fund at Tech and the United Appeal."

And if that's Jack F. Glenn's chief source of satisfaction, it would be a safe bet to suggest he's had a powerfully satisfying career, •

THE STATE OF THE A Case for the Humanities

By DAVID B. COMER, III, Chairman, Georgia Tech Department of English

It is healthy for any discipline to be required periodically to examine its purpose and to justify its premises. One can hope that a re-examination of the humanities will result in a tangible strengthening of their role in a technological education.

At Georgia Tech, the social sciences are designated by the Regents as comprising history, political science, philosophy, and sociology. The humanities are similarly designated as modern languages, English, and the arts.

Assuming that modern languages will continue viable at Georgia Tech, as they surely ought to, and acknowledging the fact that painting, sculpture, and the other arts are unlikely to be expanded, the humanities mean, for the most part, literature.

But what in essence are the humanities and what are they good for? Might it not be wiser to concentrate on science and technology, since four years are all too short anyhow, and abandon the lazy luxury of the humanities altogether?

The trouble with this premise is that it is totally inadequate for the needs of our time. At the very moment when enrollment in engineering in the nation is decreasing and the cry for solution of the problems of our society is swelling loudest, such a reduction of the humanities would only justify the old (Athenian) jibe about the North Avenue Trade School. To lend substance to this charge is, now more than ever, to shortchange the Georgia Tech student.

Nevertheless, if science and technology can really solve the present problems of 18

our society, w h a t need is there for the humanities? To answer this question, we need to differentiate between the purpose and function of science on the one hand and of the humanities on the other.

Definitions, if not impossible, are at best difficult. But perhaps the distinction between science and the humanities may be indicated somewhat as follows: In general, it is a difference in subject matter. The subject of science is things, objects, the entire physical universe, both the macrocosm and the microcosm, the infinitely small and the infinitely large.

It exposes the secret recesses of the atom and explores the vast reaches of interstellar space. It seeks to explain the how of things and hopes to understand the whyâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;though the hope seems fruitless as why merges continually into how.

But though its province is nothing less than the entire universe, it is nevertheless limited in its scope; that is, it can be definite and precise since it deals with things, and things act as they are supposed to, with a beautifully satisfying predictability. To describe its findings science has developed a language of its own, mathematics, as exact and precise as it must be to match the exact precision which the scientist demands. "Man by nature," observed Aristotle some 2,500 years ago, "desires to know." Acting upon this dictum", the scientist is constantly expanding the body of knowledge about the universe we live in. And acting upon this knowledge, the engineer devises a technology to exploit and manipulate the world for certain determined (Continued on page20) The Georgia Tech Alumnus

(LIBERAL) ARTS The Most Challenging Game in Town

By PATRICK KELLY, Chairman, Georgia Tech Department of Society Sciences

I occasionally sit in on a T h u r s d a y night poker game with a very congenial group from the Tech faculty and administration. My amateur status as a poker player is always reconfirmed on these occasions. The stakes are low, however, so my losses are small and I really enjoy playing. Except when we play a nutty game called night baseball.

Night baseball is a truly outrageous* game which bears little resemblance to what is usually called poker. Too many cards are wild, the stakes get too high, and you can't even see your own hand until it is too late. As the name implies, it is something like playing baseball at nightâ&#x20AC;&#x201D; but without any lights.

But perhaps what bugs me most about this crazy game is that its characteristics are so similar to those we face today in scientific and engineering education. Here, too, the variables are numerous and complex, the stakes for both students and faculty are very high, and change is so rapid that curricula decisions are often myopic. But, while it is not the only game in town, it is certainly the most challenging.

In talking about some of the challenges that face the mission and future of Tech, I will restrict myself to those that concern the student most directly. I am going to be particularly concerned with the role of the social sciences, though the issues are obviously more general.

The educational mission of a school such as Tech is more closely tied to the concept of a student's professional career than is usually the case in undergraduate education.

This is simply a statement of fact. But Fall 1971

it is not a simple fact, for it poses unusual difficulties and responsibilities. First of all, this linkup between undergraduate education and a professional career makes it very difficult to achieve a clear and useful statement of educational goals. A schizophrenic tension develops between those goals that relate to the individual's personal and cultural development, and those that relate to the intellectual skills necessary for the professional. All but the narrowest among us agree that both goals are important and must be accommodated in course and curriculum design. But this achievement calls for the good faith and best efforts of a great many people.

The Department of Social Sciences has approached this problem in several w a y s .

The first has to do with attitude. We do not see ourselves as building a cozy little "liberal arts college in microcosm" within an alien environment. On the contrary, we have quite deliberately attempted to recruit professionals in political science, history, sociology, and philosophy who, by background and interest, understand and appreciate the role of science and technology in the modern world. In fact, almost half of our recent appointments have undergraduate degrees in engineering. Let me cite one example of our efforts to contribute to Tech's rather special educational mission. A recent survey indicated that there were fewer than 40 full-time faculty members in the United States whose professional specialty was the history of technology. Two of those teach in the Department of Social Sciences at Georgia Tech.

(Continued from page 18) purposes. Working together, the scientist and the engineer have accomplished astonishing results, of which space explorations and landing men on the moon are among the most recent and most spectacular achievements of this happy coupling.

Confronted with the near-miracles of science and technology, what do the humanities have to offer in this latter half of the twentieth century, in this age of tremendous technological success? The humanities cannot hope to match the precise exactitudes of science, for the subject matter of the humanities is man himself. And man is too infinite a creature to be contained, as the physical universe may be contained, by any definition or limitation. The humanities address themselves to the question of the Psalmist, "What is man that Thou art mindful of him?" The humanist may even offer the observation of the Psalmist on the question, "For thou hast made him a little lower than the angels, and hast crowned him with glory and honor." Or he may exclaim, with Hamlet, "What a piece of work is a man! how noble in reason! how infinite in faculties! in form and moving how express and admirable! in action how like an angel! in apprehension how like a god! the beauty of the. world, the paragon of animals!"

But man is a creature of such infinite variety, and human nature, though in some respects so seemingly constant, is so glossed with such a quicksilver sheen that man never abides our questions and always eludes our grasp. To understand the physical universe is to 20

achieve at least relative, current certainties; to understand man is to touch the intangible, ponder the imponderableâ&#x20AC;&#x201D; in short, to wrestle with angels.

The corollaries of all this have a direct bearing on education and on the education of the Georgia Tech student.

Since science deals with a definite body of knowledge, its principal task in undergraduate education is to transmit that knowledge to the student. And since scientific knowledge is expansive and cumulative, a Georgia Tech student who has completed sophomore physics knows more physics than the great Archimedes or even Isaac Newton or Albert Einstein.

(To be a Newton is, of course, another matter altogether.)

The task of the humanities is quite otherwise. They are not primarily concerned with a definite body of knowledge at all, but rather with an experience, a confrontation with the nature of man. In the skills of composition and communication, it is true, a certain approach to mastery is attainable. But with literature, for example, the case is different. The student soon discovers that even the hard-nurtured wisdom of his teachers cannot exhaust Sophocles or Dante or Shakespeare. The Divine Comedy, for instance, is, as T. S. Eliot asserts, one of those poems "which one can only just hope to grow up to at the end of life."

The greatest works of artâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;of music, of painting, of literatureâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;are great precisely because they continue to speak to the spirit of man, to his hopes and aspirations, to his vision of himself and the world as they are and as they might be, to his hunger for self-knowledge, to his glimpse of that crown of honor and glory which the Psalmist rapturously envisioned. They provide a vision of life whose parameters are unknown and whose boundaries are unlimited. The purpose of the humanities, and of literature in particular, is, as Shakespeare puts it, "to hold, as 'twere, the mirror up (Continued on page 22) The Georgia Tech Alumnus

KELLY (Continued from page 19J This is not to say that we are abandoning our own disciplines for the sake of some shallow accommodation with the Tech environment. Rather, we are attempting to bring the perspectives of these disciplines to focus, as clearly as possible, on those features of the modern world, that not only have immediacy for the Tech student, but are also at the very center of society's concerns. I am speaking of course of the multifaceted impact of science and technology upon the whole spectrum of our traditional values and institutions.

The difficulty in this approach to narrowing the gap between Tech's dual educational goals is that of supply and demand. Even though the current academic job market is static at best, still the kinds of specialists we are seeking in the social science disciplines are rare and in great demand. But in our recruiting we are at a competitive disadvantage, both in terms of salary and teaching load. With the resources that have been available to us, we have not even been able to keep pace with the rapid growth of student enrollment in the Department, much less recruit those specialists we need. Increased enrollment is one of those wild cards mentioned earlier. It certainly strengthens your hand, but since you have to match the pot just to stay in the game, it certainly depletes your resources.

A second approach we have taken to overcome the tension between Tech's dual missions lies in the area of new courses.

We have developed courses in the History of Engineering, the History of Science, and the Philosophy of Science in which the students can come to see their own chosen professions as an integral part of a broad historical and cultural context.

In courses such as Technology and Society, Science and Public Policy, and Science Technology and H u m a n Values, we explore the complex interaction between technological innovation and our personal and social values. And in two special experimental courses, with up to 450 students and 40 scientists and engineers Fall 1971

/.=

participating, we have explored the problems and perspectives of a technological age from many points of view.

But these efforts are really only an exploratory beginning of what we need to do to fulfil this part of our role in Tech's future. The issues involved in this integrative approach demand expertise in more than one area. A few faculty members have the diverse backgrounds that enable them to offer such courses. As indicated above, we are trying to recruit more. But very often the approach must be made through a joint or team-taught course with engineers and scientists. And here one of the high-risk factors emerges for a faculty member. One must work very hard just to keep up with developments in his own discipline. And that is where the reward system typically is.. Therefore to ask a faculty member to become involved in one of the interface areas between his own discipline and another, or between his discipline and some value issue, is to ask him to risk a lot. It is asking him to risk his own stable career in a new area of investigation where the reward system is inadequate and shows few signs of improving. That is night baseball at its best, or worst.

Let us turn now to another troublesome implication of the simple fact that there is a close link between scientific and engineering education and a professional career. Only those with the narrowest vision would believe that a person is a scientist or engineer when he graduates.

But we do assume that he should be able to become one with the appropriate work experience or additional education or (Continued on page 23J 21

to nature; to show virtue neT own feature, scorn her own image, and the very age and body of the time (its) form and pressure." The humanities are concerned, not with an objective picture of the physical world, but with humane values and lofty visions. The student looks into the mirror of h u m a n nature which literature provides and sees reflected there not only the face of mankind but also his own. It is a confrontation which, like love, must be experienced; and it is the experience itself which is valuable.

There is no fund of exact knowledge to be appropriated; there is instead a vision of life and the beating of the human heart to be appreciated and absorbed.

If science seeks "to follow knowledge like a sinking star, Beyond the utmost bound of human thought:," the humanities attempt to penetrate the New Jerusalem and "to see infinity in a grain of sand."

If Georgia Tech neglects either, its graduate will be only half-formed, half-educated, only a half-man not a whole.

Even more than science and technology, the humanities can provide a safeguard against the parochial and provincial. By extending his familiarity with other times and different cultures, art and literature can help free the student from the bondage of time and place. For the young of every generation, perhaps now more than in the immediate past, it is necessary to put the present in perspective by furnishing a glimpse of the long corridors of time stretching b a c k w a r d to the beginnings of Western cultural history. The young need to be aware that though today is fresh to them, it is not necessarily new; they need to know that they were born not yesterday but ages ago. And if they have any sensitivity at all, they will find their understanding of human-kind deepened and their sympathy for their poor fellow human creatures broadened by the contact with other cultures which literature and the arts can provide. The humanist takes it as an article of faith that few who experience

22

the compelling works of world literature of different times and places can read them unmoved or ever themselves be quite the same again. Those whose hearts do not respond at least a little may well ask how manly, how human, they really are after all.

"Le coeur a ses raisons," says Pascal, "que la raison ne connait point." ("The heart has its reasons which reason does not know.") Pascal is not here touting a sentimental emotionalism which is irrational and anti-intellectual. He means the truly rational heart which, like the blending of faith and reason in true religion, blends thinking and feeling into a perfectly balanced and harmonious whole. It is in this sense that the humanities, and literature in particular, reveal the nature of the hearts of men. In the process of observing these workings of the human heart the student can understand a little better his own deepest feelings and those of his fellows. Even when the aim of the educational program is to increase the student's understanding of society, which may seem the sole property of the social sciences, literature provides an additional complement to the social sciences by calling imagination and feeling to the aid of mere logic and reason.

The approach of the social sciences to the problems of society is objective, analytical, and scientific; the humanities enable one to feel the woes of mankind as his own.

In our time and in our society the very triumphs of science and technology have created, or at the very least compounded some of the crucial problems that we face. But although science and technology can furnish some of the mechanisms needed for the solution of these problems, they cannot provide the solutions themselves, because both problem and solution involve the human beings who face them. If the humanities and the social sciences cannot together solve the problems, they can at least (Continued on page 24) The Georgia Tech Alumnus

(Continued from page 21J

both. Thus we design curricula with this in mind. But this is where the risk gets high for the student. He is betting on an awful lot of down cards that he can't see yet.

These have to do with abrupt changes in the job market, the uneven rate of technological change (and thus of technological obsolescence), the nature of corporate career ladders, unforeseeable personal opportunities or setbacks, a maturing of one's initial socio-economic motivation and interests, etc. That is a lot of down cards.

The student's risk is minimized, however, to the extent that the faculty knows what these cards are or are likely to be, and plans the curriculum accordingly. And this is to some extent the case. But I am afraid that we are not very far along in asking those very difficult questions that would enable us to better assume our responsibility and to carefully gather the data that is available.

With regard to the responsibility for the design of a student's curriculum, the main burden appropriately lies with the faculty. They, and not the student, know what is currently required of a professional in the field the student has selected. They are also in a much better position than the student to anticipate technological innovations that can alter these requirements. (There is a seldom-made point here about the importance of the faculty being actively engaged in research.

The faculty member who is not active in research would quickly lose much of his ability to contribute to effective curriculum revision.)

At this point, with a smattering of "free electives" thrown in, we usually stop. But that is like playing our infamous game with half the deck wild. We know, for instance, that only about half of the engineering graduates in the United States are in fact employed as engineers (see Perrucci and Gerstl, Profession Without Community: Engineers in American Society, Random House 1969). We also know a lot about the career patterns of Fall 1971

KELLY those who move out of the actual practice of engineering, whether into related fields such as technical management, or outside of the technical area altogether. We also know that it is difficult to categorize the employment areas (and thus the needed skills) of the half of engineering graduates who stay in engineering. Evidence of this latter fact is a 1967 study of the engineering profession conducted by the Engineers Joint Council. They listed 115 engineering specialities in their survey and asked the respondants to check the one which most nearly fit their present work function.

Even with 115 specialities listed, more than 10 percent still had to write in specialities that were not on the list.

Given this wealth of information about the actual career patterns of engineering graduates, and given the fact that engineering education is conceded to be closely related to the professional career, one would expect engineering curricula to be organized somewhat differently than they typically are. I am of course not advocating the emergence of 115 more undergraduate majors. In fact, less undergraduate specialization would seem to be the only way to provide a student with the flexibility he needs to make a specialization move at a later point. In any case, I am hardly qualified to say how this challenge should be met.

I will venture some comments, however, about what could be done to better serve those whose career paths lead them out of actual engineering practice. I strongly suspect that most of those who leave engineering do so by choice rather than because of technical obsolescence or sudden changes in the job market. I would further suspect that in many cases such decisions have been anticipated, or at least considered as a possibility, while the person is still a student. And it would probably be given serious consideration by many more if, in light of their individual characteristics and goals, they were led objectively and realistically to (Continued on page 25) 23

create the kind of people necessary for the task. What men are may be fully as important as what men can be trained to do..

It cannot be claimed that science or technology or, for that matter, the social sciences or the humanities have the power to save us in the p a s s to which we have presently come. Only faith and the grace of God can do that. Indeed, it may be that St. John's equation ("God is love") is more profound and more momentous for mankind than Einstein's (E = mc 2 ).

What does appear certain is that a merely professional, specialized education alone is completely inadequate. The humanities are also needed if we are to govern the beast of mechanization which threatens to devour us and our civilization.

To offer insufficient humanities at Georgia Tech, especially at this present moment, would be to betray the students whose education has been entrusted to our care, n

The Good Life (jreorgia Tech is hot in pursuit of "The Good Life," whatever that is; in fact, part of the search is the definition.

Dr. Richard Wiegand, Tech's Director of Continuing Education, recently obtained a grant from the National Endowment for the Humanities to conduct a year-long study of how the humanities can help bring "the good life" to young executives. The study, administered by Professor Jim Haman of Tech's English Department, is divided into two parts.

One part consists of helping civic clubs to incorporate subjects related to the humanities in their meeting programs as a form of thoughtful, provocative continuing education for their members. Kiwanians from 8 clubs all over Georgia met recently for a two-day weekend seminar to introduce them to the project, and each club will work with a consultant from Tech over the next year to institute humanities subjects in their meeting programs. In addition, the civic club project is guided by consultants in the various subject areas; history, Carl S. M a t t h e w s of the Georgia State University Department of History; law, Charles L. Weltner of Weltner and Crumbley; religion, Mrs. Ruth Ann Foote; architecture, James H. Finch of Finch, Alexander, Barnes, Rothschild and Paschal; art, John C. Hardy of Tech's School of Architecture; 24

music, Robert B. Waggoner of Atlanta City Schools; language, Mrs. Eunice Sims of Atlanta City Schools; literature, Glenn W. Rainey of Tech's Department of English; and philosophy, Richard D. Parry of Agnes Scott's Department of Philosophy.

The other part of the study involves a hand-picked group of 25 young executives with potential to be the future leaders of Atlanta. These young men and women meet once a month throughout the year to investigate, in a free discussion format with guest discussants, the search for "the good life." The first few meetings have been concerned with investigating alternative life styles differing from the standard, conventional existence the participants probably know. The purpose of the experiment is to help these young leaders to develop an awareness of and appreciation for the various areas of the humanities and w h a t they can offer to the formation of a set of values and their attainment.

The results of the two-part study aren't in yet, and remember, it's an experiment. Based on the findings of this study, permanent programs of enrichment could be established to aid in the development of society's leaders in personal as well as public aspects of their lives. â&#x20AC;˘

weigh the careers of engineering graduates. Glowing myths should be avoidedâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;it is to be their career also.

All of this leads me to say that is seems incumbent upon a school such as Tech to provide, in addition to the best basic engineering education possible, a great many more student options at the undergraduate level. Not more majors, but more options within majors, "minors" if you will. Such options would be coherent sequences of courses, carefully developed, and clearly presented as available to the student should he desire to move in that direction, or anticipate that he might so move in the future.

Among these options there would certainly be many of an advanced and highly technical nature for those aiming at a particular research career. Others might be in management, technical writing, sociology, economics, political science, or public administration. In any case the minor would be substantial enough to provide the student with a solid foundation in the particular area. The important point here is that the student should first be provided whatever data is available concerning alternative career patterns and their frequency of occurrence.

Educational options should then be made available for his selection.

The particular point to be made here concerning the social sciences is that we have already provided such minors.

Coherent and viable minors in the following areas have in fact been developed, and are available to the students.

American Political Systems History of Science and Technology International Affairs Philosophy of Science American Studies Science Technology and Society Urban Affairs In addition, students are encouraged to work with a faculty advisor in developing his own minor if none of the above meets his particular needs.

Fall 1971

KELLY Existing curricula, however, often fail to provide enough flexibility for the student to take advantage of these and other minors that are available. This is due primarily to the understandable desire of the engineering faculty to prepare the student as well as possible for a career in engineering. But for the large number of students who leave engineering, this sort of sub-optimization is a less than adequate response to their needs.

A third implication of the close link between our undergraduate education and the student's career lies in the changing nature of engineering practice itself. One of the recent "buzz-words" in engineering education is the word "system." Everything is viewed as a part of a system or sub-system, or as open to analysis. Like the companion buzz-word "ecology," this word "system" is used variously, loosely, and too often. But it does point up an enrichment of our understanding of engineering practice.

Gone are the days when the engineer was viewed as an isolated practitioner of an esoteric art that was important, but somehow over to one side.-This w a s always a mistaken view, of course. The engineering component of a problem has always been closely linked to its other aspects, particularly the economic ones.

But the links with the social, political and environmental dimensions have become much more visible and pressing in the past few years. The preoccupation with the "systems approach" is evidence of this fact.

But what does it mean for the engineering profession, and thus for engineering education, to say that the constraints upon practice are increasingly more numerous, complex, and pressing?

Clearly, it cannot mean that the engineer must also be an economist, sociologist, ecologist and so on. The demands of specialization make this impossible. But it does mean that the engineer must be (Continued on page 27) 25

lot many exclusively technological institutions of higher learning are able to boast the existence of two literary journals on their campus; Georgia Tech is the exception.

Dr. James D. Young of the Tech English Department is editor of Critique, "a literary journal devoted to essays on contemporary fiction." Young hipiself is an unusual crossbreed, having received the bachelor's degree in chemistry from Cal Tech and the Ph.D. in English from Rice. Critique, like its editor, is of a different mold than the usual run of its breed. Its most recent issue, for instance, reviews works by Kesey, Hawkes, Achebe, Raphael, Kerpely, Isherwood, Kawabata, and Moore. None of these sound familiar?

That's a pretty good test, according to Jim Young. Critique devotes itself to the vanguard of modern fiction, publishing serious essays concerning new, unknown authors while most critical journals prefer to travel the safe route of stock critiques of works generally agreed to be classics. Certain fields such as science fiction are sniffed at by the conventional journals, yet often produce true artists such as Bradbury, Vonnegut, and Clarke. New literary works run the gauntlet of shallow, popular reviews and publishing house puffery, and years could pass before a truly great new author is discovered critically. Critique could well be the first, serving as it does a very real gap in its field.

Now eight years old, Critique first came to Tech in the summer of 1970 under a one-year grant from the Franklin Foundation. Now that the year has

expired the journal is seeking other funds, and faces possible discontinuation of publication if funds are not found. If the funds come from another campus it could mean the eventual moving of the editorial chair to that campus. Whatever the outcome, however, Tech's reputation as an atmosphere conducive to all intellectual disciplines will have been enhanced.

The other literary magazine is Erato, an unlikely acronym derived from the title Engineer's Review and Tech Ontology. Exotic, perhaps, but not erotic.

It is published anywhere from biannually to quarterly, and features original art, poetry, short stories and photography

by Tech students. Erato is three years old and going strong, filling the void left by the demise of the Rambler several years ago and of the Engineer just last year. Both of the discontinued magazines seemed to have suffered from a lack of student interest, at least in continuing their actual operation, and slipped quietly away. The new publication is perhaps indicative of a new concern on campus for the humanities. In the manner of Jim Young last year's editor, a bright math graduate named Lance Ozier, entered the University of North Carolina this fall to work toward his Ph.D. in English. In his last editorial he outlined the aim of Erato: The process of living is an endless cycle of being now, hoping forward, wishing back, and it happens wherever we are, whatever we do. A literary magazine, then, cannot but reflect the wishing and hoping, the ache and thrill of living that possesses us all. We do not claim we reproduce it, for the word we used was reflect, but we are—as you are— a part of this thing called life. We cannot escape it—nor do we wish to—so, as best we can, we embrace it all.

an intelligent user of the data generated in other fields. It also means that he must know enough about these areas to be able to communicate effectively with the professionals in them.

It calls for our best cooperative efforts to overcome divisive influences and pressures that are inherent in the issue.

A 1914 Georgia Tech annual is the object of a search by Mr. Wayt Thomas of Huntersville, North Carolina. He is willing to pay an attractive price for a copy of the 1914 Blueprint in fair condition.

to be the case at present. Tech needs to broaden its mission somewhat if it is to maintain its position in the academic world, and more importantly if it is to meet its responsibilities to its students.

In this connection, we should examine carefully the recent indication that a new four-year liberal arts college is under consideration for the Atlanta area.

Perhaps scientific engineering education at Georgia Tech has reached a stage in its development where it needs the sort of enriched environment that an on-campus liberal arts counterpart could provide.

Perhaps the vision of Tech as a "university polarized around science and technology" should be our vision. It would provide an even greater challenge for what is already the most challenging game in town, n

over 50 years of progress and experience for a better Georgia and Southeast \ssÂťovm ^

The Greening of Grant Photographs

by Deloye

Burrell.

KaMMHBNn (1) The first step in the laying of Astroturf on Grant Field was to remove the old sod and prepare a base layer of gravel, much as in the building of a roadbed or parking lot.

(2) Next, a sand-oil mixture was put down to receive the asphalt; the right side of the field here already has the asphalt layer.

(3) Adhesive was then applied directly to the asphalt by several spray nozzles on a traverse arm. The surface had to be absolutely dry for good results; rain caused many delays in the work.

(4) Precision driving was required in laying down the foam base. The driver lined up his guide bar on a chalk line or on the edge of the previous roll of foam.

(5) Another layer of adhesive, then the simulated grass Astroturf surface was applied in alternate layers. An overlay was provided for perfect seams.

(6) After all the machine work was completed and the rolls of Astroturf were in place, all seams were cut by one man using a circular saw and hidden guide bar. They were then finished by a man on hands and knees using a wooden buffing block.
