Abstract

Liberalism in the Colleges

Blanshard, Paul | September 17, 1924 issue

add to cart   close window

No section of America is more victimized by undiscriminating generalizations than the college community. A peculiarly vicious murder is contrived by two young college graduates and editorial writers lay the murder at the door of "too much education." A sophomore girl runs away with a station master after a fox trot and this proves the shallowness of college training. A college president turns out the lights on a radical lecturer and establishes the fact that free speech in the colleges is crushed by capitalism. A few courageous Methodists confess their Christian pacifism and the colleges have become centers of bolshevism and treason.
