Abstract:
While on sabbatical leave from Teach ers College, Columbia, New York City, in 1950, Dr. Rugg, Chairman of the Com mittee on Social Foundations, National Society of College Teachers of Education, held round-table discussions in 35 uni versities and colleges in some 18 states. Five additional round tables had been held during the previous year, making a total of 40 centers in which he discussed the problems of the Foundations of Edu cation with about 1200 staff members. These conferences varied in personnel from 15 to 75 members. In most instances the groups were drawn from three areas of college faculties-professors of educa tion, of the social, natural, and physical sciences, and of the arts; in a few the membership consisted only of professors of education. The discussions were based on the Committee's printed report, THE EMERGING TASK OF THE FOUNDA TIONS OF EDUCATION, which was dis tributed to all members of the Society in January, 1950. The present brief report is confined to Dr. Rugg's work as Chair man of the Committee since January, 1950.
