The following program of graduate classes in Political Science has been
arranged, to be offered in three successive Summer Quarters. At least four
classes will be offered each Summer Quarter. Three classes in American

administration: National Administration, State Administration, County and
Municipal Administration; Introduction to Political Theory, Juristic and
Ethical Political Philosophy, Modern and Contemporary Political Thought,
Ancient and Medieval Political Thought, Theory and Practice of Federalism,
American Political Theories, and International Relations.

International Relations.—Tentative Program for a Round Table from July
2 to July 16.

This summer it is hoped to add a Round Table on International Relations
to the program of the Institute of Public Affairs and as a short course
in the Summer Quarter. The importance of eliminating war because of
its destructive influences on financial and economic prosperity, on political
stability and on spiritual values, make such a round table timely and necessary.

The American Friends Service Committee of Philadelphia, the national
organization for the Religious Society of Friends, which conducts Institutes
of International Relations at Wellesley College, Haverford College, Northwestern
University and elsewhere is cooperating in arranging this round table.

As now planned courses will be offered dealing with international relations
from the following angles:

• I. Political

  • a—Present-day American foreign policy

  • b—Pre-war and post-war European policies

• II. Economic

  • a—Economic and financial interdependence of the world today
    and its effect on American economic and financial international
    policies

  • b—A consideration of tariffs, war debts and reparations

• III. Spiritual, moral and ethical

  • a—The war method and the principles of Jesus and other religious
    leaders

• IV. Post-war efforts at world cooperation

  • a—The League of Nations

  • b—The World Court

  • c—Pacts and treaties

• V. Problems arising from Manchuria

  • a—Fundamental issues involved

  • b—Recent events

• VI. The American peace movement, its strength and its weaknesses

• VII. Military training, its aims, methods and results

• VIII. Effective peace programs for groups and individuals

  • a—How teachers, ministers, club leaders and others can promote
    better international relations

The course will be conducted like classes of a graduate school. The
morning sessions will be divided into periods of fifty minutes each. The
program will be arranged so that everyone attending the round table can
take in all the courses.

This round table is arranged especially for persons who expect to be
active in some capacity in promoting better international relations—public
and private school teachers, ministers, club leaders, peace workers, etc.

It is impossible to announce the faculty at this time but the same high
standard of scholarship and ability of the other round tables will be maintained.

At the time this announcement goes to press the money necessary for
this round table is not yet in hand, though a campaign to raise it is being
conducted. The announcement is therefore only tentative. Persons interested
and desiring to take the course should advise the Secretary of the
Institute of Public Affairs promptly and ask for a definite announcement.
A satisfactory advance enrollment will be a determining factor.
