Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Facilities for Study and Research: In the Offices of the United States Government at Washington Sir: I have the honor to transmit herewith a report prepared by President Hadley, of Yale University, on the facilities for advanced study and research in the offices of the National Government at Washington, and to recommend its publication as a number of the Bulletin of the Bureau of Education. Especial interest attaches to this publication, and I am confident that it will be widely useful. It sets forth, in compact form, information which has frequently been sought by institutions and individuals engaged in scientific research, both in our own land and in foreign lands. In particular, it will answer numerous inquiries which arise in the graduate departments of our American universities. The question has been asked repeatedly in the course of the collection of materials for this number, whether it is intended to have some bearing upon the effort to secure the establishment at Washington of a National University. It. seems proper accordingly to make the following statement: That, this publication is intended merely to convey accurate information concerning a matter of the highest educational interest, and not to serve as an argument, either pro or con, in any special propaganda. Its immediate purpose is to furnish information to advanced students and directors of research. It is inevitable that it should have an important bearing upon any discussions which may be had in the immediate future touching the establishment of a National University, but it is my intention that its part in any such discussion shall be simply that of a source of reliable information. In pursuance of this purpose, President Hadley in his editorial comment has limited himself to such guarded reference to the National University movement as seemed necessary to the completeness of his brief survey of the materials offered. This definition of the nonpartisan purpose of the publication, with which President Hadley is in bill accord, is the only limitation which was proposed when the collected materials were placed in his hands for editorial arrangement and review.
