Response to "'Selling' vs. news" by Bristow Adams, Cornell University. Harris notes that the Cornell president and dean probably spend time seeking support from the legislature or other sources for their institution and its work. Asks if their efforts are (as Adams argued) "subversive to the purpose of the college?" Also observes that a pastor is paid for ministering to the souls of his flock, but he pauses frequently to pass the collection plate. "I maintain that if education is worth having, then it is justifiable to educate people to support educational institutions."
President's column includes at note: "There are new mediums through which we may serve - the radio and the motion picture. We need to give these more serious attention than we have given them thus far - particularly, the radio. The effective use of both of these, however, needs consideration."
Brief summary of a talk by Paul V. Maris, director, Oregon Extension Service, at the 1931 AAACE meeting in Corvallis, Oregon. Reported on efforts to raise money for the Oregon college station. "I feel that the conclusion is warranted, therefore, that the needs of the Land Grant Colleges from the standpoint of rendering a localized service cannot be met by commercial stations."
