THE PURPOSE OF COLLEGE TRAINING.
NOT A DEVELOPMENT OF THE MONEY MAKING
FACULTY.
TO the Editor Of The Tribune.
Sir: have just read IN The Tribune this morning
the letter In which college men are accused OF not
having squarely met Mr.. Carnegies charges against
the universities. In my opinion, Mr. Carnegie declares
not only that college education Is not essential 10
business success but also that for this reason.
college education Is useless, and even worse tlan
useless in that It's tendency is to turn men into "Ich
oilers, These are Mr.. Carnegie's own words As
to the first charge that college education Is not
essential to business success, perfectly Wiling
TO admit that without argument, and believe all
college men are equally willing to do the same There
Is no I'm compiling lists OF names; we grant al
once that the majority OF millionaircs would not BE-
found on the side of the college educated men, III
we grant this without argument am sure we have
met the charge as suuarey ms possible; and If Mr..
Carnegie stopped there, nobody would wish TO dis
pute his word But he gocs further and says, there
fore, the colleges useless Here is where we amer
from him. AS we are willing to allow tilat a conegc
education is not essential to success In business, SO
we claim that in business is not essentai 10
successful life In the best sense
Institutions OF any kind should be judged by the
manner in which they attain their avowcd objects
We are satisfied with the Military Academy Mt West
Point il Il gives us good soldiers We do not call
1t failure because 1t does not als provide US WIN

vldng shOemakers. In the same way, no cohege 'ha'
know Of except the socaled business co'e ei
makes any pretensOns to turning out successiu Dus-
ness men. They do provide us with succcsstul pro
iesona mem and scholars as your correspondent Is
willing to allow. outside Of these the OBJECT vi ue
colleges is to send forth into the world gentlemen OF
cultivation and refinement who VIII snow themselves
gentlemen in whatever situations they may hnd Them
selves. Their success in making money depends on
something entirely outside the training thsy nave It,

Such a fate. however. is not in store for the
