Student Essay Interprets
Function of University
Following, is a portion of a
Notre Dame University Scholas-
tic essay on "Education and the
University" by Michael Butler,
senior mathematics major.
At the university the great
thoughts and intellectual achieve-
ments of ancestors are passed
down to-their cultural heirs, and
it is here that the young learn to
respect and critically urge this
intellectual heritage.
Any university which fails to
express a sense of awareness of
its cultural tradition, which
preaches doctrines of rugged in-
dividualism and intellectual an-
archy, really fails in one of its
basic: tasks—that of custodian
and interpreter of the past.
And yet, at the same time, the
university is far from being a
static mouthpiece of the past.
There is nothing in our world
which, strictly speaking, remains
the same. Everything is in the
constant process of becoming;
what ceases to grow decays and
dies.
