VG+/VG, minor chip and soiling. The need for an all-out attack upon the problems of general education has, for a number of years, been recognized by American educators.. The history of Stephens College since 1921 is the record of an adventure in general education designed to meet the needs of women in modern society.. The fact that the explorations reported in this volume relate to general education for women in no way minimizes their value in dealing with the more comprehensive problems of general education. Fundamentally, the philosophy which dictates this program underlies the current shifts in content and organization which are increasingly apparent in the total educational field..
