Rating Plan
(Continued from page one)
as possible,” said Dr. Schleicher.
“Secondly, I feel that it would be
most effective if done on a volun
tary basis by the professors.
Virginia Wright, newly-elected
freshman class secretary, feels
that the plan would be a good idea
“if the kids judging do it fairly.”
“Too often professors are not re
sponsible to the students—they
just expound, and don’t really touch
the students.”
“If the results of this rating were
publicized it might be an incentive
to the professors to teach the best
they can.”
“A. splendid thing,” said P. S.
Dull, assistant professor of politi
cal science and history.
“After all, the University is run
for the students, not as a platform
for the professor. Any means by
which a professor can know how
he’s doing is a help. The professor
always faces the problem of wheth
er to lecture to the upper ten per
cent of his class and go over the
heads of the rest, or make the
course clear to the majority of the
class and bore the excellent stu
dents.”
Trudi Chernts, uregana editor,
commented: “From what I’ve gath
ered, it would be a fine idea.
“Some professors don’t really
teach. If the professors understood
their own rating the courses could
undoubtedly be improved.”
E. G. Ebbighausen, associate
professor of physics, said, “It is a
very interesting idea and might be
productive of useful results: but it
is not necessarily a good idea.”
Stating that he himself would be
interested in knowing what the
students think of his courses, he
nevertheless voiced the opinion that
there is danger of objections as to
what it would be used for.
Virginia Drake, junior in business
believes that it will be “valuable
to contrast different students’ opin
ions of the same teachers.”
Victor P. Morris, dean of the
school of business administration,
said, “There are many factors,
some of them very intangible,
which make for successful teach
ing.
“I am quite sure that it is very
easy for the student really to be
reacting to his personal “liking”
for a professor rather than meas
uring his judgment of the profes
sor’s teaching ability.”
Hank Kinsell, senior executive
council representative, stated: “It’s
a very good plan. It gives new stu
dents a chance to find out past
students’ opinions of the faculty,
besides giving the faculty a chance
to know their outstanding and
weak points.”

U.S. Seeking Peace
As Might Advertised
While Europe's Communists continue their reaction against
the Atlantic pact the United States is going right ahead, putting
military demonstrations behind its diplomatic efforts to convince
everyone that, from here on out, war isn't going to pay.
Within a few days there have been unveiled new weapons
and new tactics. The ability to penetrate an alerted air screen
and deliver an atom bomb was shown in the Caribbean war
games. A B-aO atom-bomb car
rier has flown non-stop around
the world. A rocket was sent
250-miles into the air, indicating
a range of something like 1,000
miles on a military trajectory.
Whether these demonstra
tions were timed for political pur
poses matters little. The effect is
the same. They are an advertise
ment for the "unassailable force” to
deter any would-be aggressor.
This idea is known to be a strong
factor in administration policy. It
very probably caused President
Truman to think of sending Justice
Vinson to Moscow last fall. There
were indictions then that the Presi
dent thought the time was ripe for
a direct warning to Russia that the
United States had the stuff, and to
see that Stalin did not underesti
mate our determination to use it if
necessary. That, not appeasement,
was the real objective of the pro
posed trip, which was called off be
cause it might have been misunder
stood by the rest of the world with
serious political results.
President Truman is represented
as having a deep sense of responsi
bility over his control of the atom
bomb; to be hoping that he will
never again have to authorize its
use, but determined «that it shall be
used to end any possible conflict as
quickly as possible. That probably
explains his personal attitude to
ward the program for containing
Russia with out a fight.
To be factual, the B-50’s world
flight and the rocket which sent 250
miles straight up are omens, ra
ther than immediate war potentials.
Methods for guiding a 1,000-mile
missile to a target remain to be
developed. The B-50 flight prob
ably took weeks or months of prep
aration, and could not be accom
plished every day. This the Russians
know.
But the B-50 is a 1944 model. Big
ger and faster bombers are coming
up. The B-36, of which only a few
are available so far, could probably
make the 23,000 mile trip with one
refueling.
More important, though, is the
demonstration that, rto matter
what happens to her foreign bases,
the United States will be able to
continue fighting from home.
In the meantime, she is consoli
dating her bases on Okinawa, in
Arabia and elsewhere. She is con
sidering carefully the Anglo-Am
erican position in the former Ital
ian colonies before their disposal
comes before the United Nations
against in April. Bomber bases in
Britain are being developed on an
apparently permanent basis and
are being steadily enlarged.
Even now, with rearmament just
getting under way, the American
position is not to be attacked light
ly.
