ORGANIZATION.
The days of isolation are passing. It is no longer possible for college
professors to conduct classes and give lectures upon subjects unrelated
to the student’s ability or to his year in the college course. All the
world knows what each instructor is doing; questionnaires quiz him
about methods and subjects; associations require him to talk about his
work and consciously to face its problems.
Neither is it possible for a high school teacher to drag listlessly
along, or arrange his history topics as he wishes. College entrance
requirements, the criticism of the high school inspector, the rising
standards of State educational systems, are holding him to more
definite and more accurate work. He has not the earlier liberty to be
careless and slovenly; he has still in almost all cases the liberty to
do his work well in the way best suited to himself and to his class.
