'Liberation of Man in the World' Called Aim of Education by Green by Robert Werge " T h e aim of an education is not to m a k e men good. The aim is to liberate man in the w o r l d , " stated Dr. T h o m a s F. Green, professor of Foundations of Education at Michigan State University, Tuesday afternoon in Winants Auditorium. Addressing himself to the topic "Christian Commitment and Scholarlv I n t e g r i t y , " Green went on to explicate the similarities between education's rational use of the mind and the c o m m i t m e n t s of faith. Both begin with " w o n d e r , " a real capacity for awe springing from the realization of contingency and dependency in the n a t u r a l order. Both aim to set man morally and intellectually f r e e . J u s t as Israel was saved out of bondage, so m u s t education set m a n loose to w a n d e r in the world, according to Green. Education must broaden the bound a r i e s of m a n ' s ability to act in his world. Whether those actions be good or bad is not. however, the p r i m a r y concern of education: its methods must be moral, but its aim must remain, by necessity, intellectual. Green staged. Green added that just as Chiron advised Achilles to be " a s p e a k e r of words and a doer of d e e d s " so must the college break down its artificial ivy-towered scholasticism. By solely devoting themselves to
