With the strictly occupational training are included those general education subjects which help the student understand the world in which he lives, which assist him to express himself, live harmoniously with other people, and to assume responsibility and community leadership. There are a number of characteristics peculiar to California State Polytechnic College Which should be mentioned. Among them are “the upside-down plan” of instruction and the pro- duction project method of instruction. 7
