Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The History of Goucher College The personality of a college is the product of the intelligent and generous loyalty of its members and friends. Balliol, Harvard, Yale, Vassar, Smith each has a personality resultant from such contributions of thought and act. When we think of Balliol College we think of scholarship and not just of John of Balliol. When Harvard is mentioned we think of that university which is prominent in learning as in American educational history and not only of John Harvard and Charles W.Eliot. When Yale is named we think not just of the name Elihu but of the great twentieth century institution and all it stands for. Vassar now connotes the college by the Hudson and all that it has become since Matthew Vassar founded it. Smith means a great college for women and not only one individual of an innumerable clan. The story of the efforts of many devoted persons forms the history of the institution, the tale of how its personality developed. Goucher has a personality. From its beginning as the Woman's College of Baltimore it has been affectionately and intelligently served by a noble host -trustees, members of the faculty and staff, students, alumnae, and friends. From time to time changes come. For the most part these are superficial such as changes in costume or social custom, always interesting to the student of educational history and frequently amusing. Always there has persisted a splendid spirit. That, I hope, will be made clear to readers of this book. Personal and contemporary observation recorded in letters and diaries forms the very foundation for the work of the ultimate historian.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The American College But in this region the American college merges itself into the university, and it may be fairly asserted that in the last year and in some colleges in the last two years the student is really a university student.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Lawrence College Lawrence College has just, passed what President Nicholas Murray Butler has called "one of these invisible lines which the imagination draws across the chart of changeless time." The seventy-fifth anniversary of the founding of an institution of learning is really no more important than its seventy-fourth or seventy-sixth, but custom has underscored some of the lines on the chart of Lime so that they stand out in bold relief and are given corresponding significance in our imagination. We, therefore, have our golden and our diamond jubilees when we stop to consider the work of pioneers and founders, and note the progress and achievements of institutions they have established during the procession of the years. Lawrence College at its last commencement, by historical addresses, an elaborate historical pageant, and the inevitable banquet with toasts and good cheer, celebrated such a milestone - its seventy-fifth birthday. Because of this and doubtless because the work of our colleges and universities, although a quiet force not much thought about by the masses, is among the most potent in molding the sentiments, formulating the ideals, and determining the characteristics of our civilization, the writer has been asked to prepare this article on the history of one of the two earliest institutions of learning in Wisconsin - Lawrence and Beloit having come into existence the same year. There were various factors or influences which conspired together for the founding of Lawrence College. One of these was the missionary activities of the Christian church. It has been said of the fathers of our nation, "They had hardly erected shelters for themselves and for their households before they were thinking of a college."

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A History of Macalester College: Its Origin, Struggle, and Growth My aim has been to present an accurate narra tive of the origin, struggle and growth of the college. I have kept in mind Ranke's rule that the historian must show how events came to pass, Wie es eigentlich gewesen ist, and not be a mere chronicler of events. I am aware, however, that the realization of such objective history is conditioned by the mental pecul iarities oi the writer, and that every narrative is really a description of events as seen through the mind of the historian. I offer this book to the pub lic realizing its imperfections, yet conscious that I have made an earnest endeavor to write an unbiased account.

Download or read book The Ritual Significance of Yellow Among the Romans (Classic Reprint) written by Francis Marion Dana and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-02 with total page 44 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Ritual Significance of Yellow Among the Romans The conventional significance of color occupies an important and little-understood position in the human thought of all ages, but it is only within recent years that any detailed study has been made of individual colors as being religiously symbolic. Among the ancient Romans, religion was almost entirely a matter of convention, and we should therefore expect to find that their religious rites were, in a large degree, fettered by a formalism which tended to produce an intricate system of symbolism. Such being the case, it has been for centuries the task of scholars to attempt to discover the meaning of certain religious rites, a meaning which the Romans themselves were far from understanding. In all these researches, however, there is but little mention of the significance of color, and it is the aim of this study to examine a part of this phase of Roman religion. A recent study by Dr. M. E. Armstrong, of Goucher College, has accounted most satisfactorily for the use of scarlet, purple, black and white, and gold in Roman ritual, but no study has been made of the use of yellow, which is important particularly in the marriage ceremony. Of what natural phenomena was yellow the visible sign or representation, and what was the underlying idea which the Romans wished to express by its use? These are the questions which must be confronted in an investigation of this kind. In this connection the words found to be of the greatest importance are luteus and croceus. First of all, therefore, we have tried to collect, as nearly as possible, all the passages in which they occur, in order to decide the difference, if any, in their color denotation. Though it has been impossible to make separate mention of all the references collected for this purpose, those have been quoted which seem to bear especially upon the final decision. A brief study of the word flavus revealed the fact that, with perhaps one exception, it has apparently no symbolical significance; therefore references to its use are few, and the discussion is confined for the most part to passages in which luteus or croceus occurs.

Book excerpt: "What does it mean to be Taiwanese? This question sits at the heart of Taiwan’s modern history and its place in the world. In contrast to the prevailing scholarly focus on Taiwan after 1987, Becoming Taiwanese examines the important first era in the history of Taiwanese identity construction during the early twentieth century, in the place that served as the crucible for the formation of new identities: the northern port city of Jilong (Keelung).Part colonial urban social history, part exploration of the relationship between modern ethnicity and nationalism, Becoming Taiwanese offers new insights into ethnic identity formation. Evan Dawley examines how people from China’s southeastern coast became rooted in Taiwan; how the transfer to Japanese colonial rule established new contexts and relationships that promoted the formation of distinct urban, ethnic, and national identities; and how the so-called retrocession to China replicated earlier patterns and reinforced those same identities. Based on original research in Taiwan and Japan, and focused on the settings and practices of social organizations, religion, and social welfare, as well as the local elites who served as community gatekeepers, Becoming Taiwanese fundamentally challenges our understanding of what it means to be Taiwanese."
