The article focuses on the recent trends in education in the U.S. Thousands of school-teachers flocked to the State universities this year and enrolled in the school of education, where they are privileged annually to watch those developments spring full-armed from the Jovian minds of the professors of education and their disciples, the school administrators. The author recounts his experiences at one such camp. They were given a problem to investigate the purpose of education in a democracy. According to the author, schools have been democratized. The really up-to-date school is devoted to Education for Citizenship. Good citizenship-which no one defines-can be attained only through preliminary practice in good school citizenship.
