Marital School at Vassar Gives Harvard Men Chance to Study "Complex Problems" of Husbands--Fine Nurseries Provided

An entirely new field of post -graduate research for Harvard men has been opened up by Vassar College, which has announced that it will hold a summer school for husbands.

Twelve men, whose wives attended the school of engineers last summer, have already registered and been accepted for the coming season.

The aim of the school is "to supply scientific knowledge of the complex problems of adjustment between individuals and environment, emphasizing home and family; to produce women better trained for leadership through intensive study of their own peculiar opportunities and responsibilities; and to make men letter husbands and fathers."

Such a statement seems to be on a feminine bias, to indicate that the Vassar regime emphasizes too heavily the leadership of wives, while husbands are simply taught to be 'better'.

The students will be given quarters in the college dormitories, and their children, if any, are allotted suites in scientifically run nurseries.

Whether the teaching of the technique of making the home run more smoothly, will be taught from the angle of rearing healthier progeny or whether it merely means teaching a scientific style of handling the rolling pin to enforce domestic law, was not revealed in the announcement of the marital school.

As yet the school is apparently not open to prospective husbands, put if the experiment works out well, in all probability that will be the next step in this newest educational field. In the future it may very easily become a difficult task to win a bride without a degree from the Vassar school for husbands.
