Description:Excerpt from The '85 Address: Together With Some Newspaper and Magazine Articles Discussing the Amherst Idea The Class of 1885, at its Twenty-fifth Reunion in Amherst last June, impressed by the progress of the College, and profoundly convinced of the value of those ideals which Amherst has ever set before its students, appointed a committee to present to the Trustees the question whether, at a time when education is so largely assuming a technical character, and when in the universities the work of teaching is to so considerable an extent performed without relations of personal contact and influence between teacher and student, it is not at once the opportunity and the duty of Amherst College to take a distinctive public position as a representative of that individual training and general culture which once was the purpose of all American colleges. We believe that the College should take this position, as a duty owing to its students, as an opportunity for a great public service, and in its own interest as a matter of self-preservation. Twenty-five years ago Amherst had a definite and necessary position in the educational scheme.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
