Hayakawa Faced Problem “Japanese Canadian Teaching English In United States”
By S. I. Hayakawa:
<i
When I was at the University
of Wisconsin working on a Ph.D. in English, people kept aski
ng me, “What do you want a de
gree in English for? No one is
going to hire a Japanese to te
ach English!”
In the years following my do
ctorate, I often had to wonder
if my friends were right. No
body seemed ready to
hire a
Japanese — even , a „Canadianborn Japanese like myself, who
couldn’t read or write Japanese
— to teach English. I must have
written to a hundred
colleges
and universities looking for an
opening. No luck.
ONCE I GOT an apologetic le
tter from the chairman of the
English department in a great
midwestern university explaini
ng why he couldn’t offer me the
job I had applied for. “Your qu
