In Yunnan, students at the uni- versities, Dr. Fu stated, have had to come in contact with reality. A graduating thesis cannot be prepared from the usual library
and reference book sources, and libraries of Limited size do not per- mit of a liberal enough education from books.
Students, therefore, have to sup- plement lecture course material with research at first hand, and have to go out into the country and into the neighbouring villages and aborigine districts to collect data for their theses.

One student prepared paper
social institutions `among the Lolos, and students of the graduating classes have begun a first-hand study of the life and social institutions of the province.
