Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Informal Talks It had sustained a remarkably high standard of teaching. Its University College had, through all vicissitudes, been true to the ideal of an orderly and organized course of liberal education. It had not been led astray by the doctrine of unlimited election of studies. Yet it had not limited itself by tradition. It had made a reputation for initiative. It welcomed new ventures freely, while holding fast to historic educational principles. Its newer professional schools, particularly in Commerce and in Pedagogy, opened an unlimited vista of educational advance. I was keenly interested in its Hall of Fame, which promised to become an inspiration to the youth of all schools and colleges in the land, stabilizing the American ideal of American character. Finally, the oppressive handicap under which, with all its greatness, the institution was then laboring, a handicap in the form, chiefly, of res angusta domi, had created such a situation as would appeal to the imagination of any man who had a drop of sporting blood in his veins.
