Dartmouth has originated a course which the University would do well to duplicate. "Problems in Citizenship" has been formed because of the great popularity of its predecessor, dealing with problems relating to the great war. The new subject has been made compulsory.
The introduction of anything more compulsory is, if possible, to be avoided. Such a course, however, under the Departments of History, Government, and Economics could not fall to be of immense value. College instruction is prone to be too theoretical, but the practical teaching of so vital a subject would fill a great need of the undergraduate. The well-known ability of the staffs of the departments of Government, History and Economics as well as the experience in actual problems which many of them gained during the present war would be certain to make the course popular. The University should not fail to introduce a subject which would be so instructive and of such permanent usefulness.
