Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Work and Aims of the University of Rochester: An Address Delivered on Commencement Day, June 28, 1876 I do no more than justice to Rochester and to our beautiful Western New York, when I say that our location is inferior to that of no institution in our land. The population of our rural city has doubled since the University was founded. We are surrounded by a rich farming region, and by ﬂourishing towns and villages, filled with such a population as furnishes the largest percentage of college students of the best character. We are at the gateway of the West. Our facilities for communication with all parts of our country, are abundant. Our city is healthy; its population, as a whole, cultivated and moral. It combines with singu lar felicity, most of the advantages of a country and city location. We have, on our part, brought within the reach of the great body of our citizens, the Opportunity of giving their sons a liberal education at a slight expense. We have also given from the funds of the University, free tuition to three pupils from each graduating class in the High School as prizes for excellence in scholarship - thus putting a liberal education within the reach of many who could not otherwise attain it.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Report to the Board of Trustees of the University of Rochester: On the Plan of Instruction to Be Pursued in the Collegiate Department; Presented September 16, 1850 There are Obvious reasons why instruction in the higher branches Of knowledge cannot be furnished at a cheap rate. The most important of these is one which is not always fully estimated in the consideration Of this subject, and that is, the absolute necessity Of teaching students in small classes, in any effective plan Of education. It will be admitted by expe rienced instructors, that if a class has over thirty scholars in it, it should be divided, in order to prosecute, vigorously and critically, the study of mathematics, of the ancient languages, or, indeed, of almost any branch taught in a college. The classes in the Military Academy at West Point are divided into sections Of twenty each. The fact that medical schools, as conducted upon the loose, popular plan, will, when highly successful, yield large profits to their managers, has no bear ing upon the case. For in 'them the Professor has little to do but to deliver lectures, receive the fees from the large numbers who attend them, and confer diplomas at the expi ration of the course. He does not aim to educate each indi vidual mind. Strictly speaking, he does not teach. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Eloquent, urgent, and inspiring, The Constant Fire tackles the acrimonious debate between science and religion, taking us beyond its stagnant parameters into the wider domain of human spiritual experience. From a Neolithic archaeological site in Ireland to modern theories of star formation, Adam Frank traverses a wide terrain, broadening our sights and allowing us to imagine an alternative perspective. Drawing from his experience as a practicing astrophysicist and from the writings of the great scholars of religion, philosophy, and mythology, Frank locates the connective tissue linking science and religion—their commonality as sacred pursuits—and finds their shared aspiration in pursuit of "the True and the Real." Taking us from the burning of Giordano Bruno in 1600 to Einstein and on to today's pressing issues of global warming and resource depletion, The Constant Fire shows us how to move beyond this stale debate into a more profound experience of the world as sacred—a world that embraces science without renouncing human spirituality.

This book was released on 2010-01-27 with total page 383 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: James Anderson critically reinterprets the history of southern black education from Reconstruction to the Great Depression. By placing black schooling within a political, cultural, and economic context, he offers fresh insights into black commitment to education, the peculiar significance of Tuskegee Institute, and the conflicting goals of various philanthropic groups, among other matters. Initially, ex-slaves attempted to create an educational system that would support and extend their emancipation, but their children were pushed into a system of industrial education that presupposed black political and economic subordination. This conception of education and social order--supported by northern industrial philanthropists, some black educators, and most southern school officials--conflicted with the aspirations of ex-slaves and their descendants, resulting at the turn of the century in a bitter national debate over the purposes of black education. Because blacks lacked economic and political power, white elites were able to control the structure and content of black elementary, secondary, normal, and college education during the first third of the twentieth century. Nonetheless, blacks persisted in their struggle to develop an educational system in accordance with their own needs and desires.

Book excerpt: "The Reflector is a humanities-based companion to the medical school's scientific dissection manual. The authors (Jennifer Battaglia, Margie Hodges Shaw, Susan Daiss, and Martha Gdowski) say The Reflector resonates fully with the biopsychosocial values central to the University's medical school. The publication encourages the students to think more broadly about the cultural, political, legal, ethical and personal issues connected to dissection. Says Gdowski in the preface: "You will never know your donor in the way you may know the lab partners with whom you share this dissection experience. . . . Yet, you will come to know them in a memorable way." Although it not required reading, it appears that a majority of medical students opt to read it (online) and find it useful"--

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Your Children Are Very Greatly in Danger, the veteran journalist Justin Murphy makes the compelling argument that the educational disparities in Rochester, New York, are the result of historical and present-day racial segregation. Education reform alone will never be the full solution; to resolve racial inequity, cities such as Rochester must first dismantle segregation. Drawing on never-before-seen archival documents as well as scores of new interviews, Murphy shows how discriminatory public policy and personal prejudice combined to create the racially segregated education system that exists in the Rochester area today. Alongside this dismal history, Murphy recounts the courageous fight for integration and equality, from the advocacy of Frederick Douglass in the 1850s to a countywide student coalition inspired by the Black Lives Matter movement in the 2010s. This grinding antagonism, featuring numerous failed efforts to uphold the promise of Brown v. Board of Education, underlines that desegregation and integration offer the greatest opportunity to improve educational and economic outcomes for children of color in the United States. To date, that opportunity has been lost in Rochester, and persistent poor academic outcomes have been one terrible result. Your Children Are Very Greatly in Danger is a history of Rochester with clear relevance for today. The struggle for equity in Rochester, like in many northern cities, shows how the burden of history lies on the present. A better future for these cities requires grappling with their troubled pasts. Murphy's account is a necessary contribution to twenty-first-century Rochester.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Part scholarly psychological research, part self-improvement book, Th e Path to a Meaningful Purpose helps you answer four existential questions: Who am I? What matters in life? Why am I here? How do I successfully fulfi ll my life purpose? Author Luis A. Marrero uses psychology to help you understand the meaning and purpose of your life, and how to succeed. Marrero introduces foundations of a new movement in psychology called logoteleology, chiefl y a blend of logotherapy, psychological theories of motivation, and teleology, that he calls the science of meaningful purpose. It provides a basis to help you understand why people suff er and institutions fail to reach their potential despite the availability of practical solutions; discover who you are by learning about identities and how they are formed and improved; realize what is meaningful and meaningless in life; resolve to make decisions that set you up to make the best of what life off ers; fi nd and commit to a meaningful purpose that serves as a guiding compass for a fulfi lling life; learn how to set goals and make choices that are compatible with what is meaningful to you; and determine how you can select and use the right type of motivation that builds and strengthens your mental stamina and the confi dence to win in life. Th e Path to a Meaningful Purpose, a foundational guide, is the fi rst in a planned anthology. It explains why you behave the way you do and how your behavior impacts your ability to enjoy life to its fullest, off ering ways to help you grow and succeed.
