Out of the Shadows ... 60 Years Ago The following is a description of the Academy given in the 1927 Petit Jean: ACADEMY The Academy occupies a very important place in the educational plan of Harding. It is here that an attitude toward study is given and habits of study formed. Adolescent boys and girls have many difficulties in adjusting themselves to their places as responsible individuals of the community. High school instructors cannot teach them how to meet every situation that everchanging conditions bring, but they can instill in hearts and minds of pupils principles that will guide them in conducting themselves properly under any circumstances. Many of the pupils show their increasing ability to proceed without having to be told what to do or how to do it, whether it be a personal problem or one that affects the group. The ability to discharge personal responsibility to the group is developed in many kinds of work. The success of the "Midget" basketball team depended on this cooperation. The senior class play, "Kentucky Belle;' could not have been presented had not the class and the directors given up personal preferences for the benefit of the group. Parties, picnics and hikes of the diffemt classes were made enjoyable by this same spirit of hearty cooperation, which is one of the foundation stones of good citizenship.
