Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from A National University: Review of the Paper Read Before the Higher Department of the National Educational Association at Elmira The first act of this Association touching the subject of a national university was to declare the conviction that a true university is "a leading want of American education." This act was not done in a corner. The declaration was made in the hearing of our most famous schools, and in the face of the whole country. It was the unanimous voice of as large a body of distinguished educators as I have ever seen assembled. The resolution thus adopted provided for the appointment of a national committee to consider how this want ;should be met, and to report at the next meeting of the Association, in 1870. Owing to the lateness of the date at which the chairman received the list of appointees, the calling a full meeting of the committee could not be attempted. Even correspondence with any but the nearest members was impracticable. The report submitted at Cleveland was only preliminary, therefore, and, by agreement of the few members present at that meeting of the Association, was signed by the chairman alone. The report presented at the St. Louis meeting, in 1871, sufficiently outlined the institution that was in the minds of the committee, as well as of many other educators who had been consulted, and bore the name of each and every member of the committee present at that meeting of the Association. It did more than to outline the proposed university. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
