The Connection Between Glass and Good Design

JSGT 1935 V19 T005-T009

There is a movement on foot which I think is a little dangerous, and that is for purely vocational education. In other words, a good many industries want people in their employ who know just what is going to be useful to them, and little more. Personally, I think this to be a possibly mistaken policy. What are wanted in industry are the finest minds that can be got, and these are not going to be obtained through the medium of a limited vocational education.
