The article focuses on the prevailing condition in the U.S. universities. There is a need to have intellectual and spiritual leadership in universities in the U.S. But it seems that the existing universities cannot perform this task with full effectiveness. It is hoped to introduce among the students the same freedom and cooperation as among the faculty. Candidates for the higher degrees will be given a chance to prove themselves in seminars, and, if worthy, will be retained, but the work of professors will not be to grind academic machinery, and that of students will not be merely to do assigned tasks.
