Please announce to your classes the Harry L. Taylor Prize in the Humanities for 1976-
1977. The essay is to be based on C. P. Snow's thesis that the intellectual life of the
Western world is increasingly being split into two polar cultures which can hardly communicate with each other -- the scientific culture and the literary (or humanistic) culture.
In the essay, the student is to consider the following questions:
1. Discuss Snow's thesis.
2. . Evaluate the thesis.
3. State the implications of the thesis for education today.
The Taylor Prize is a $250 cash award to be given on Awards Day, May 1977. It is
open to any full-time undergraduate student at Stetson University. Any student desiring
information should see one of the Committee members as soon as possible, but no later
than February 7: Mrs. Marjorie Gilbert; Mrs. Kathleen Johnson; Dr. William Thomason.
Deadline for submission of the essay is April 18, 1977.
Please note that the February 2 chapel service will run from 10:00 to 10:50 a.m. This will
be one of a series of lectures on Christian theology. Information regarding these lectures
was run in the Faculty Bulletin for the week of January 9.
There will be no convocation or academic procession held at this time.
On Sunday, January 16, the Student Union Board will present The Circus Kingdom. This
unique and highly acclaimed circus is distinct in that all its 25 performers are of college age
and many are receiving college credit for this work with the circus. The two hour
performance will begin at 1:00 p.m. beside the Hat Rack patio. This is an event your
entire family will enjoy.
