LITERARY
CLUB:
cont. from pg.
l
Brother Timothy discussed the
ques-
tion of why
a
student
goes
to
college.
He stated that the student should real-
ize
that "th0 function
of the
arts is
not
to
be
utilitarien;
rnther,
their
purpose
is to
make
rneno
11
The student
must unify the knowledge which he assi-
milates and forrnulatehfs own philosophy
of life.
Brother believes
that the arts
should lead the student to God.
Mr.
Callahan
described
what he
considers
to
be the
ideal liberal
arts
curriculum~
He
advocated that
all
II
In-

to--"
courses
be
abolished
and be
replac-ed
by·
what
are
now called
0
major courses
11•
He believes
that
a
college
offering.
such courses
would
give a true
liberal
education;
but he
further
stated
that he did
not
think
that the average student would be capa-
ble_ of, or interested
in, handling
such
intensified
study.

T~ough the

of various
lect,ures,
it,
is
hopod that the club

be able
to
show incoming Freshmen
t~e advantages of a career in the field
of ScienceG
In addition,
the club will attempt
to answer many of the perplexing
prob-
lems
of which the non-science major has
little
knowledge.
Such a program
will
benefit
not only the science major,
but
also those students
who have more
·
than
a
cursory interest
in
the sciences.
Officers
for
