Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from How Can Canadian Universities Best Benefit the Profession of Journalism, as a Means of Moulding and Elevating Public Opinion?: A Collection of Essays One of the most important functions of universities has always been to prepare candidates for the professions of law, medicine and theology. In recent years, however, a new force has made its appearance, namely, the Press; and the question has naturally been raised as to whether it is to remain outside the university or be in some measure brought within its influence. Is it not desirable that the relations between the press and the university should in some way be better established? Can the university hope by means of the press to be of more direct advantage to the public at large? Led by these considerations the Chancellor of Queen´s University, Sir Sandford Fleming, at the Alumni Conference in 1902, after consultation with the late Principal, announced his intention of instituting a prize essay competition on the following subject: "How can Canadian Universities best benefit the profession of Journalism, as a means of moulding and elevating public opinion?" Principal Peterson, of McGill, Principal Hutton, of University College, and Mr. Willison, the representative of the Canadian Press Association, aided the Chancellor and the Principal of Queen´s in making the award. After a careful examination of the thirty-two essays sent in, it was decided that Mr. Colquhoun and Mr. Houston should divide the prize, each of these writers receiving $125.
