In Memory of a Great Teacher
A lecture was held on Thursday, July 13, commemorating the death of Carl Jung. Dr. Taylor introduced the speakers.
Dr. Palmer gave a reminiscent picture of Jung's youth then he discussed Jung's early work In connection with the courts. He used this discussion to illustrate Jung's logical thinking and his meticulously objective standpoint. Finally he presented Jung's recent chemical hypothesis of Psychoses in 1956.
Dr. Taylor closed with a fitting quotation from Jung himself: death is psychologically as important as birth; to shrink from it is unhealthy and abnormal.
The audience stood in silence for half a minute in tribute to the great psychologist.
