Dr.. Andrew s. Draper, New York COM
missioner OF education. addressing q
meeting Of teachers In New York CITY
recently. had this to say Of the weakness
Of American universities:
The lust for riches and higness and
social influence and political power Is q
weakness in American universities. II Is
very American. but II Is not scholarly.
II Is not meant that American stands for
grossness, but IL cannot be denied that its
spirit and predominant attributes make
for commercial prosperity. for business
success for the acquisition Of houses and
barns and riches rather than for scholar
ship.
The ambition OF American universities
Il to secure gifts and appropriations. to
erect sumptuous buildings; and to multi
ply teachers and matrtculants has be-
come 90 common and pronounced as to be
q msnaoa Tho president Is often chosen
because he can get money! The poten-
TALLY Of the organization goes into this
quest for higness. this consuming <rneri-
can desire to be first In the race or at the
top OF the heap. The passion and
the trend set up standards that misIead
youth and confuse the common thinking
Of tS> country. That Is . decided weak
ness In our American universities and II
Is in considerable sense peculiar to
them"
DR.. Draper defended vocational instruo-
ton In universities and said that institu-
tons opposing II are certain ito be
menaced by the advancing waves of COM
mon intelligence even to the point when
the honored lights Of q hundred or q
thousand years must be submerged"
