Excerpt from The College Course and the Preparation for Life
Sive, one to whom the disciplines and disappoint ments of added years have not brought the dimming of the imagination, nor the loss of the power to think one's self back again into the free and joyous morning of human life. That comrade I would most ardently desire to be. And hence these ensuing chapters, which were first spoken informally before the undergraduates of Wil liams College, are not, I hope, essays of the didao tic and moralizing sort, such as teachers and preachers might impose upon their passive and receptive hearers. They are just friendly talks of one man with some younger men. They are intended not so much to edify and instruct as to interpret and reveal. A. P. F.

Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book explores the myriad rites and challenges of student life as seen through the eyes of young men in an undergraduate college setting during the early twentieth century. The author positions this time in an American college as one of profound and rapid change, an era when students wrestled with the transition to a personal and intellectual freedom hitherto unknown to them. From social and academic pressures, to artistic appreciation and the realities of religion, the author, an American educator and minister, delves into the ethical, intellectual, and social concerns of the era and how they manifest in the lives of undergraduates. Of particular note is the author's deep empathy for the inner lives and aspirations of young people, his book is a reminder that 'problems' faced by college students then are strikingly similar to the ones faced by young people today.
