Eisinger makes appeal for 'radical thinking'
by Lyndon LaRouche

Robert Eisinger, Professor of Political Science, recently asked his Quantitative Research Methods last Friday to be creative in their hypotheses. "Let's think outside of the box for a minute," Eisinger requested.

The students in the class were initially surprised by Eisinger's request. "I wasn't sure what he meant by 'the box'," confessed one junior Communication major after class. But after the initial reluctance, class discussion soon took off, discovering new, innovative answers to age-old questions of quantitative research.

As class discussion became more enthusiastic, however, Eisinger chimed in again. "Wait! Let's not think too far outside of the box," cautioned Eisinger, "That could be dangerous."

This remark came after International Affairs major Robert McCracken hypothesized that polls would always be tainted by subjectivity and "can never be an accurate measure of reality."

Robert Eisinger, assistant professor of Political Science, draws a steady bead on conventional wisdom. Eisinger's advice to students? "Think outside the box." Eisinger's experiment with bold thinking was met with bold reproach.		Later that day, Eisinger met in an emergency conference with Curtis Johnson, Dean of the Social Sciences, and Dianne Nelson, Professor of Cultural Anthropology. The three decided that Eisinger's experiment in education that morning had failed. "This never should be repeated again," stated Johnson. Also, they decided that McCracken should change his major to So/An or consider transferring to another college, such as Evergreen, that could more appropriately meet his educational needs.
