Book Description
Excerpt from Universities and Their Sons, Vol. 2: History, Influence and Characteristics of American Universities, With Biographical Sketches and Portraits of Alumni and Recipients of Honorary Degrees The sketches which are presented in this volume are not intended as biographies of the persons who are made the subjects of representation. The purpose of the book is to bring together in a single group the names, faces and condensed records of the wise founders, generous benefactors, earnest teachers and faithful officers who have established, fostered and developed the great institutions of learning to which this series of volumes is devoted. The number of men who have at one time or another filled positions which entitle them to a place in this galaxy is so very great, that merely to record their names would itself fill several hundred printed pages. Not only therefore is the collective representation which has been attempted in these pages necessarily incomplete, but from similar necessity the life-records given are in the main very brief. Yet it is believed, at least is hoped, that the work of selection and presentation has been done with a sufficient degree of intelligent judgment, painstaking thoroughness and historical accuracy to fulfill the plan outlined with reasonable completeness, and to secure results both interesting and valuable to all University Sons. From the very nature of the work herein attempted, any omissions or shortcomings must be too palpably evident and conspicuous to escape notice. Criticism therefore as to general incompleteness, methods of selection, manner of treatment and matter treated of, is anticipated; in fact, is inevitable. That the strictures of the critics may be based upon just grounds, with a clear understanding of the limitations of the undertaking and the difficulties involved in its performance, this brief prefatory statement is made. It may also be properly added that while authors may write and publishers may print whatever they please about the dead, they are debarred from taking such liberties with the living.

Book Description
Excerpt from Universities and Their Sons, Vol. 3: History, Influence and Characteristics of American Universities; With Biographical Sketches and Portraits of Alumni and Recipients of Honorary Degrees The time is past when a University education necessarily implied a strict following of what was known as the learned professions. Indeed, this term itself has had large extension within recent years. Law, medicine and theology, which made the noble scope of the mediaeval Universities, no longer bound the activities of the great schools which have inherited their name and still bear their prestige transported in place and broadened in scope. Journalism; literary authorship; teaching, in its various lines and grades; engineering, in the construction and handling of the fast developing applications of modern physical science; even more, perhaps, research, exploration, invention, in all fields of observation, and among the elements, forces or laws of action, whether in the physical or psychical spheres, all these demand a preparation for which the means and encouragements of the highest schools are none too ample. The successful prosecution of any of these aims may well deserve the rank of a learned profession. In fact, we might warrantably say that in these modern days science, philosophy and art have all enlarged their content and their scope. Geology, geography, meteorology, astronomy, have each revealed new aspects of the worlds; biology, new reaches of life; chemistry and molecular physics have opened to us glimpses of wondrous modes of action which we scarcely dignify by calling them laws, inasmuch as they seem like generative powers; the problems of psychology are investigated on new lines, and even the traditions of history in its monu ments. Relics and languages are tried by new tests and lead to new grounds of conclusion. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
