Has the urogram of general education recognized in
its alr.ta the factors essential to preserving in its devel-
opment the democratic ideal? Was Charters right about
the claim that adult women speak and write? Was the Santa
Barbara faculty correct in that adult men and women pro-
duce, fiatrib-nte, and consume goods and services? Can we
ignore the fact that all men and women are grown-up boys
and girls considerably conditioned by organized educational
efforts? Have we a school program that is assisting boys
and ^irls in accepting responsibility in a democratic soci-
ety? Are we creating by the rears of the school artificial
situations that cannot adjust to life situations? Or la
general education planning a prorrar to assist in socially
intu rating men and women?
The answer to most of these questions la obvious* To
many they will seem rather ridiculous in their simplicity.
Probably nany will criticize their inclusion in a discussion
of this type. Yet, those who are realistic will know that
although it is said, "Yes, men and women produce, distribute,
and consume," we are continuing a hide-bound curriculum of
Musty "subjects" w^trout attempting to relate them to any
thing except grades,'diplomas, degrees, ana other arti-
ficialities*
