Book Description

Excerpt from Eleventh Annual Report of the President of the Johns Hopkins University, Baltimore, Maryland, 1886: With a Review of the Ten Years From 1876 to 1886 At the risk of repeating some of the phrases which have often been employed in our public announcements, I beg leave to add a few words upon the distinction which has here been made, in accordance with the best traditions and usages of other institutions, between collegiate and university instruo tion. In the confused nomenclature of American education, each institution needs to explain its own vocabulary so that the youth of the country and their guardians, in selecting places of study and schedules of instruction, may know exactly what they may expect.
