Humanism

Mr. Haymes envisions "a
college which places the
student first and attempts to
reflect a humane concern for
the world and for its
community." In September,
perhaps, this will be closer to a
reality than an idea.

Mr. Haymes:

Salvaging "Intellectual And Creative Powers."

Through this method of
education, Mr. Haymes hopes
that the college will provide "a
living, working atmosphere of
cooperation, aimed at
developing the whole person."
The college is designed to
"develop the humanistic side
of the human."

The college is not degree
oriented, or vocationally
oriented. Mr Haymes' theory is
that "a student who is liberally
educated will perform better in
whatever vocation he later
chooses."
