Salient. An Organ of Student Opinion at Victoria College, Wellington, N.Z. Vol. 4, No. 9. July 30, 1941
Co-operation
Co-operation
Cut down lectures to a minimum and persuade our professors and lecturers not to abdicate after lectures, but to participate in discussions, where a careful consideration of the forces operative in the life of the community is as much an integral part of Varsity life as the lecture.
Surely co-operation and discussion is the only socially intelligent way of education.
Such a change in the curriculum must come by the will of the students. Hatched in the brain of officialdom the idea would fail. We must first be sure that we want such a modification—that we can stand the realistic mental discipline that such freedom entails.
