Book excerpt: Excerpt from Status of Certain Social Studies in High Schools It has been suggested that the introduction of courses dealing with modern social and economic problems, particularly with questions of income, wages, strikes, and similar subjects, would be dangerous and cause considerable criticism. The replies indicate that this is not the case. In response to the question, Have you received any suggestive criticisms of any of these courses from parents or others outside the school? Only 527 out of the replying answered yes, and of this number the majority (346) indicate favorable criticism. There were, in all, only 182 adverse criticisms, and a large proportion of these (69) dealt with technical aspects of the course. For instance, one critic believed more time should be given to marketing problems; another that the use of statistics in sociology was a waste of time; one said that economics dealt too much with problems of the city in comparison to rural problems; and another that the daily papers do not provide reliable material for reference work.
