Here in America, such institutions, grounded on a belief that a wide gen eral knowledge of the arts would enable a man or woman to face the world a more complete man, a more complete woman, have climbed the ladder not perhaps to the very sum mit, but to a ledge so close that there is little difference. For today there is much freedom in the. American university and college. In these places of learning, young men and women have at their finger tips the knowledge of accumulated ages, the written wisdom handed down by the wise men who long ago pored over their parchments.
