Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Plea for the Smaller College: An Address Delivered on Founders' Day at Alma College, June 16, 1897 Founders' Day, which we now inaugurate, suggests two ideas, viz: first, the history of this institution. Second, the aims of those who participated in laying its foundation. In rehearsing anew the history of Alma College it shall be my purpose, omitting lengthy details, to emphasize the fact that this Institution was born of God and was not the contrivance of man; and then, by taking as my theme 'a plea for the smaller college, to embody in that theme the motives and aims of those men whom God chose to employ as instruments in carrying out his design. You have now become acquainted with the fact, the knowl edge of which has so long been kept in such abeyance as to be almost forgotten, that the idea of a college under the auspices of the Synod of Michigan is not a new one, but as old as the history of the State. The name of John P. Cleveland, D. D., you must have noticed, appears in the Minutes of Synod as the second in the roll of Moderators in 1835, and again as Moderator in 1843. The honor to have been thus twice chosen appears never to have been conferred upon any other man, an indication of the high estima tion in which he was held by his brethren. He also acted as Stated Clerk from 1834 - 7. In the year 1837 Dr. Cleveland resigned his pastorate of the First Presbyterian Church of Detroit and was installed pastor of the church at Marshall, and took charge of a preliminary school as President of the Institution. Marshall was at that period prospectively the most promising interior town of the State, scarcely excepting Ann Arbor. It was near the center of the Lower Peninsula, on the line of its only railroad, in the midst of a fine agricultural region, and peo pled by stalwart men, of whom the Hon. Charles T. Gorham, at one time Assistant Secretary of the Interior under Senator Chand ler and subsequently our Minister at the Hague, stands as a fair representative. He still remains among us, vigorous in health and staunch in his devotion to our beloved church. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The strengths and failures of the American college, and why liberal education still matters As the commercialization of American higher education accelerates, more and more students are coming to college with the narrow aim of obtaining a preprofessional credential. The traditional four-year college experience—an exploratory time for students to discover their passions and test ideas and values with the help of teachers and peers—is in danger of becoming a thing of the past. In College, prominent cultural critic Andrew Delbanco offers a trenchant defense of such an education, and warns that it is becoming a privilege reserved for the relatively rich. In describing what a true college education should be, he demonstrates why making it available to as many young people as possible remains central to America's democratic promise. In a brisk and vivid historical narrative, Delbanco explains how the idea of college arose in the colonial period from the Puritan idea of the gathered church, how it struggled to survive in the nineteenth century in the shadow of the new research universities, and how, in the twentieth century, it slowly opened its doors to women, minorities, and students from low-income families. He describes the unique strengths of America’s colleges in our era of globalization and, while recognizing the growing centrality of science, technology, and vocational subjects in the curriculum, he mounts a vigorous defense of a broadly humanistic education for all. Acknowledging the serious financial, intellectual, and ethical challenges that all colleges face today, Delbanco considers what is at stake in the urgent effort to protect these venerable institutions for future generations.
