Puoils Plain Scared
Says Scientist
Wheat Men Meet
With OSC Head
“Fear of science" is keeping
vast num bers of able American
youths out of science classes ami
careers today and constitutes one
of the big obstacles faced by this
county in science training, ac
cording to the dean of science at
Oregon State college.
D r A F Gilfillan insists th.it
thousands of students "steer away
from science courses in high
school and college because they
tiave the m istaken notion that
science courses are too hard for
them ami too dem anding in study
time.”
Girls, especially, hesitate to take
science classes lx*. ause they are
"scared", he says. “In reality, of
course, there is no reason why
girls shouldn’t do ju st as well as
boys in science fields,’’ he em pha
aised.
Gilfillan Is quick to point out
that students must put forth real
effort in science studies but is
convinced that the overw helm ing
m ajority of students should be
able to pass and enjoy .* ience.
"Some of them will find new
worlds and new work <»i>ened to
them", he says.
i'h e problem, however, is that
the fear of science is resulting
in a tremendous waste of talent
American youngsters |M>s%ess a l
ong science lines, Gilfillan bch.
ves ' We’re to the j»olnt that some
of our youths have l>eeu condi
tioned against science instead of
fxing encouraged to find out tor
themselves if the> have the m ak
ings of a scientist," he adds.
Gilfillan la of the opinion that
high school students should b«>
required to take at least one year
of biology, one year of a physical
•Hence—physics or chem istry—
and mote than one year of math-
euiatics if they a i e g o in g o n w it h
