Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from State Aid to Higher Education, Vol. 18: A Series of Addresses, Delivered at the Johns Hopkins University It has sometimes been asserted, and at other times been assumed, that the policy of supporting higher education by the State is in this country practically a new policy, or one which does not rest upon a traditional or historical foundation. While everyone at all familiar with the trend of educational affairs must admit that the growth of State universities is one of the most remarkable features of recent educational development, very few seem to be aware of the fact that State assistance to education, in all its branches, has been the traditional policy of the country. Not long since I heard an eloquent address on State universities, in which the speaker admitted that the movement was irresistible. He declared that it could no more be stopped, either by denominational prejudice, or by outcries against socialism or by the advocates of laissez faire, than the building of railroads and the running of trains across the plains can be stopped by the shouts of Indians or the showers of Indian arrows. Occasionally, he said, an engineer or a fireman may be shot down, but his place is at once filled and the work goes on as before. So it was, he said, with the inevitable progress of the State universities. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
