Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from State Universities: Some Recent Expressions of Opinion Unity in Our Educational System: The Eastern States of the American Union are less fortunate than are the Western States with respect to the unity of their educational institutions. In the Eastern States the higher institutions are private foundations, and the primary and secondary schools are for the most part public, although there are numerous private preparatory schools and academies. The result is that we have parts of a whole not closely related and adjusted. Every state in the Union, however, west of New York has a unified educational system in process of development. The primary and grammar schools lead to the high schools, and the high schools lead to the university. The full advantages of this unity are not yet generally perceived, because the West is a new country; but they are becoming apparent to all close observers. It is clear, that, in the higher education, the West is to become more and more influential. But as time goes on, the West must mean more and more, both absolutely and relatively. The West will, in the next century, embrace the great bulk of the population of the United States, and with its activity, energy, enterprise, and trained intelligence will control the destinies of the country. Youth is always most interesting, and it is this developing part of the country that deserves special consideration. Education and the State: It is most fortunate that the whole education of the citizen has been conceived by the entire West as a public function.
