Philosopher Talks on Art Imagination
Man’s rationality lies not In his ability to Ret as an efficient calculating machine but In the free Imagination of his art, was the thesis of William S. Snyder m a lecture to the Pholosophy Forum yesterday.
Warning his audience of about fifty people that it’s less than 30 years to George Orwell's 1984." the philosophy Instructor said we will approach Al-dous Huxley's "Brave New World" if artists lose their creativity and conform to society.
“Art in our society is apt to be neurotic," conceded Snyder. 'But the sickness is the society's, not the artist's.”
Coleridge Cited Snyder cited Coleridge's "stately pleasure domes” in the poem ‘K'ubla Khan’ as an example of an imaginative synthesis of creative activity.
“Only through the study of the erratic, capricious nature of the artists who create such works can we understand the significance of human nature," he said.
A recent graduate of Princeton University, Snyder warned the audience that he would “stick my neck out today, and not try to please everybody.
Labeling himself a naturalist and an empiricist, Snyder said that our age is the only one which does not attempt to con-sidei' the problems of human relations as central to understand ing of man and philosophies of man. t
‘The understanding of Imagination is the key to understand-ng man’s action. The key to un derstanding imagination la un derstanding man’s art."
Factor* Outlined The three factors of man's spiritual life were outlined as scientific knowledge, moral life, and the production and enjoy mont- of art. Snyder said that art is more typical of man’s spirit and nature than either science or morals. •
"In art there is no question of accepting or rejecting the work. Either It stimulates your imagination^ ,r it falls-that’s all The most trivial and lnar.e thing one can say about art is ‘it's good’ or 'I Ilk« It'.”
Snyder said that philosophy has reached an Impasse between philosophical schemes which have no relation to the real world and rigid dogmas.
"We have abandoned an at tempt to see man through his works, and see the world as a whole. No ’vonder our students balk at philosophy courses."
at most large universities and colleges, will be a supplement to the examinations regularly administered to freshmen and other incoming students.
Add Prestige v "Other schools In our ares which give the test include Pomona, Caltech, California, liC-LA, and Stanford. By giving this examination at SC, it will give added prestige to the university,” he said.
The tests will be given at SC on the following dates at 8:45 a.m. in 133 FH: Saturday, MRr. 17; Saturday, May 19; and Wednesday, Aug. 8.
Michael stressed the point yesterday that students planning to enter SC In the fall should contact the Educational Testing Service at 4640 Hollywood Boulevard, NOrmandy 3-1181, to sign up for taking the Scholastic Aptitude Test.
Pay FI rat "Students will not be permitted to take the test unless they have contacted this organization and have paid $6 to be tested," he said.
After the fee has been paid to this Hollywood firm which devises and grades the test, the students also will tv> allowed to take the standard SC entrance examinations, Michael said.
Ways Listed The SC testing director added that the initiation of this test to SC will now make it possible for freshmen to enter the university three ways. They are (1) by being In the top half of their ciass or receiving 10 units of A or B in the academle studies at high school, (21 by getting a satisfactory score in thé regular SC entrance examinations and (3) by receiving a satisfactory grade In the Scholastic Aptitude Test.

Rxams Classify
The present SC examination is a classification test and questions the tester's ability In English, reading comprehension, etc. It Is given only sfter the prospective student fills out his application forms and pays a $5 fee.
