According to Karl Menninger there are two broad headings which might best describe the goals of psychiatric education. The first provides for the inculcation and development of a certain philosophy, point of view, and a scale of values. The second provides for the transmission of experience and knowledge with respect to certain technical activities, so that the novitiate can act with competence and responsibility. The student of psychiatry must be exposed by plan and design to the right doctors, the right atmosphere, the right books, the right staff of instructors, the right patients, and he must be exposed to all of these at the right time. 'There will always be differences of opinion among thoughtful teachers as to the meaning of the word "right" as here used, but it is a step forward to recognize that whatever is considered "right" must be that to which the psychiatric resident is systematically and sufficiently exposed.'
