Abstract

The student generation has never been known for stability and singleness of purpose. Sharp swings in mood, indecisiveness, and fickleness in professional intent may be regarded as normal psychological phenomena. Yet there is a growing concern among teachers in our ministerial training schools. The present student generation seems to be suffering from an unusually aggravated case of rootlessness and indecision. Many students find it extremely difficult to project themselves into their future parish situations.
