ThecharacterofEuropeaneducationdemands

thatthestudentdevelop36andsocialindividuality.TheAmericanstudentisgivenachoicebetweenrelyingonhimself37onothers.

 Scholastically, the fundamental difference is 

between the European lecture system and the American discussion system. The European system is both the strength and the limit of European education. Thestrengthisthechallenge38thestudenttorelyonhimself;thesystemimposesalimitbecauseitis39,andattimesevencruelly,qualitative:

onlyafewareabletosurvive.

A second difference is the American campus, a term which has no 40 in Europe. There, the campus is formed 41 by the various classrooms, faculty offices and laboratories. No extracurricular activities are carried on. The students andthe professors go to the universities when they have classes and leave as soon as they are 42 .

TheEuropeanuniversitiesprovidenosociallife;onthe 43 , it creates an asocialatmosphere. Thestudent44 never organizes campus activities:

 everything is left to the 45 of the individual students. 

In the 46 of these considerations, I think I can answer the challenge of that pretty coed, though my answer is bound to be incomplete. My 47 to the American educational system are two. The first 48american students. What 49  me most about them is their conformity and their fear of 50 . Perhaps campus life 51 by necessity to conformity. Almost every student belongs to at least two organizations. What is the 52 of this associative mania, 53 not the basic to be supported by people who think 54 and sympathize with the same idea?

 Nobody likes being alone, but it seems to me that Americanstudents like 55 too much.
