University of Virginia Library

Distorted Reasons

Miss Pratt, an Assistant Professor of
Govt. and Foreign Affairs, said that what
disturbs her is that "the pressures of society
(the draft, parents, etc.) distort a person's
reasons for going to college. This puts an
unhealthy emphasis on grades, but this
problem is very hard to deal with," she said.

Several observations on the University
were offered by Miss Pratt:

- The whole school will function better
on a co-educational level.

- I have enjoyed the end of the honor
system that I have dealt with.

- It was enjoyable in class because a
number of students have worked hard."
