The four essays which are now gathered into this volume were originally written for different audiences, and have already been published in different magazines. The paper on The Development of the American University was read before the Round Table of Boston, and that on The Place of the Fitting-S chool in American Education before theN ewE ngland Association of Colleges and Preparatory Schools. A request from the editors of the Andover Review to reply to the presentation, made by a friend and colleague, of another system of higher education than that of which I was the chosen advocate, led to the article onE ducation, New andO ld. The occasion of its production, therefore, accounts for the more special and polemical character of the third essay. The address on The Essentials of aM odern Liberal Education was delivered before the Association of the Alumni of Western Reserve University at the Commencement of 1895. All four of these essays are here published with very few and unimportant verbal changes.
