The Great Books program The Great Books <http://wiki/Great_Books> program (often called=simply "the Program" or "the New Program" at St. John&=39;s) was developed at the University of Chicago <http://wiki/University_of_Chicago> by Stringfellow Barr <http://wiki/String=ellow_Barr> , Scott Buchanan <http://wiki/Scott_=uchanan> ,Robert Hutchins <http://wiki/Robert_Hutchins> , and <http://wiki/Mortimer_Adler> in the mid-1930s as an alternative form of education =o the then rapidly changing undergraduate curriculum. St. John's adopt=d the Great Books program in 1937, when the college was facing the possibi=ity of financial and academic ruin. The Great Books program in use today w=s also influenced by Jacob Klein <http://wiki/Jacob_Klein_(philosopher)> , who was dean of the college in the 1940s an= 1950s. The four-year program of study, nearly all of whi=h is mandatory, demands that students read and discuss the works of many o= Western civilization's most prominent contributors to philosophy, the=logy, mathematics, science, EFTA_R1_01672103 EFTA02529752 music, poetry, and literature, such as Aristotle, Shakespeare <http://wiki/Willia=_Shakespeare> , Descartes <http://wiki/Ren96C396A=_Descartes> , and Einstein <http://wiki/Albert_Eins=ein> . In line with the views of the program's found=rs—who complained of "vocational interests" that "clutter=quot; other colleges' curricula—"Johnnies", as St. John I-=;s students style themselves, usually value intellectual pursuits for thei= own sake, regardless of whether they have practical application. Tutorial= (mathematics, language, and music), as well as Seminar and Laboratory, ar= discussion-based. In the Mathematics tutorial students often demonstrate =ropositions that mathematicians throughout various ages have laid out. In =he Language tutorial student translations are presented (Ancient Greek is =tudied in the first two years and French for the last two). The tutorials,=with Seminar and Laboratory, constitute the "classes". All class=s, and in particular the Seminar, are considered formal exercises; consequ=ntly, students address one another, as well as their teachers, only by the=r last names during class.
