X find ,now tna the ' way. has been marked out by my pre decessor and (hat the college has only to go to the completion of the tasks it has Already set before Jtsetf. The structural break with the past caused by the Civil War and succeed ing events has made difficult and im portant our political readjustment and the jignt mediation of the present be tween our past and our future. .But apart from any considerations of -is-tory and without regard -tpany theory or schoo of politics muat be plain to us ail that, i a democracy where everything Is determined by majori- ties, every intelligent man should care tjijly. enquire into the merits 'of all questions upon which he is to cast his ballot and should vote his matured convictions, 'rather than settle these questions as if they were matters of course, off-hand and in obedience to ancient sentiment In the part .of the South .with which this .College Is im mediately concerned, freedom of speech and freedom of action in poli tics is ..today complete. Put here as everywhere else in, the country .we need to intensify the sense of respon-s...-lity that Is imposed by the rate to vote upon every thoughtful and - up right man. And here perhaps more than elsewhere in America We need the courage and moral energy which compel a man to speak the thoughts that are in him, and, when the time comes, to stand up land be counted, whether girt by friend or foe. Just as for many years it has been teach ing, Trinity college will con tine, both by precept and example, to teach this sort .of resolute doing of one's public duties. v . Upon the college in the. South rests the further duty of mediation between the religious conservatism of this re gion and the great intellectual ferment of the age. Again the problem is to keep the good that has come to us out of the past and adjust it to the condi tions and needs of the present.. The influential place which the church holds in the South i should like to see, not only abide, but grow and extend; for it is the business of the church . to guide the spiritual forces that con trol the world. The .Southern college, if it be wise' enough to understand its opportunity, will work in hearty co operation withNthe churches. It will not seek to make friends with the churches for the purpose .of using them as hill-boards on which to advertise its war.es; it will not court their good will in jorder to rally its constituency , hut in all sincerity it will labor with them Just to the end of strengthening and sweetening human life. The aim of Trinity College is . stated by the words on,. its seal, jaeiigum and Edu cation," not two but one and insepara ble: religion that comprehends the whole of life and education that seeks to develop all. the facilities or men. . One of our first tasks is the material uplifting of the section, the develop ment of all kinds of business, the cre ation 01 weal tn, and the building of vital forces of civilization. We are now in toe midst of a great industrial awakening; even in the old business of agriculture a new day has arrived. In solving .tne problems of the new in dustrialism education has a part to play; and am not now thinking of industrial education. While every in dividual ought to be trained with some reference to the kind of 1-e he is go ing to live, but I for one do not wish to see money-maning set at the heart of the education of any considerable portion of Southern people. Greed is already perhaps our characteristic na tional vice, and it does not need the fostering of education. While South-1 ern people are poor and ought to be encouraged by every right method to get their share o -ae wealth and phy-J Bicai weii-oemg that aye been more Widespread in other parts of America, yet to educate a race of mere money makers would hurry in an era of sor did materialism that would be a more deadening blighlto right ands worthy living than . ignorance and. poverty have been. Let us have wealth ana the training of wealth producers; but let us not give to industrial training an undue emphasis in the education of youth. Of all the confusions of tragedies that fouowed the Civil War in the South, perhaps the most pathetic have been the chaotic educational condi tions of the last, half-century. Tnere has been progress in the. direction of a rational .system of education, but we are not yet out of the wilderness. In all educational reiorm, the college J should rurnis its full share of leader ship. And this means that it must not be content to ride upon whatever may happen to be the popular : w,ave, but It must resist fads and bad tendencies as well as encourage and direct right tendencies. Trinity College will al ways throw itself unreservedly into the doing of the supreme duty of the hour. A while ago it was at any cost to break the shackles of politics and tra ditionalism." Today it is to put within reach of every child the opportunities of the elementary schoo 1, the grammar-school, and. the nig school, .This task is made extraordinarily . ditucult by the double system of education that I must be maintained for the two races; and in this great task every, bit qf: strength the State can command from all sources for' the next ten years should be concentrated. To consoli date all the forces in the State for this purpose anaS to utilize them, so that the largest and . most beneficent results may follow ls a proposal that should command the heart and hope of all enlightened men and women. I believe that every college should give itself to the doing of the hard tasks of society, and that every edu cated man should do his full stint of work. Attention ought also to be paid to the gentler side of Southern civili zation. It was the graclousness, the hospitality, the beauty and purity of the social life that "was the best char acteristic of the old order. The grace and charm of our elders in their best estate have gone, and have been suc ceeded by much that is crude and raw In our life. But tin right kind of edu cation will nourish the poise and fine ness .of temper that form an essential part of every cultivated man, - These are some of the -ways in which a college may promote the Interests of society, if it is controlled by . wide sympathies and a spirit of construc tive helpfulness, it is not, however, Rmnn sr. the "direct Alma nf tha onlleea to ".educate publicists or ministers ; or skilled', workmen or., teachers, but, to send cut: graduates who have been trainea ior mca.ency ; ana --who r equipped avlttt. trustwortnr character, VBS.90ege vna is aomg mosv w f v dues these qualities of efficiency and character is rendering the largest ser ried to the world. These are precise ly Uie qualities that are needed in .poll tics; in the church, in business, In edu cation, and in society. Many linesof business and some other fprms, of en deavor in America hive grown faster than men have been developed to man age them. Ahd this failure of Ameri can civilization to develop an adequate supply of efficient and . trustworthy men gives "whatever of justification there may be for the 1elief held by a good many foreigners and others that our form of government is breaking down at some points.- , ':U ,i There Is a feeling ratief widespread, though I am not sum it is just, that the college of today 4es not make as. purely for emeiency and character as did the. college .-of otaer aamyrne college has certainly in some ways gained, and perhaps In others it. has lost, ground. The old curriculum with its fixed studies and severe disciplines has . been liberalized and enriched American colleges have grown andJiaeais ana even ngnt ror inem wnen have.improved their facilities for edd- neecssary and at the same time to cation until, in the matter of-educa tionai opportunities, the best of uem are perhaps unexcelled in the world But it is becoming increasingly clear that it is not enough for the college IU uoui out i icu uppui tuiivueo to lis students and then unconcernedly leave them to use or neglect the opportu nities as they may see Ut Ways and means must be found to make educa tion take effect. The educational ap- Dliances must somehow be brought in to live connection with undergraduate callowness. There is a saying cur rent in German universities that one third fail, one-third go to the devil, but that the remaining, third govern Eu rope. ' This ' survival represents too great a loss of human life. Freedom of opportunity, must mean freedom to go to destruction, but in the case of college youth, freedom miist.be hedged about with restraints. The fine old phrase 'cure of souls," if extended to include cure of minds and bodies, would define the function of the col lege. The four years in college ought to be very appy years in every, man's life happy not because , he spends them in icieness or luxury, but . be cause uaey are years full of effort and achievement, of generous friendships and inspiring ideals, lull of youth and hope. A normal man, if he once get a taste of it, enjoys vigorous work and wholesome living, 'a he educational op portunities offered by the prosperous colleges of the East or the big state universities of tne West are unques tionably far .superior to the opportu nities that can be offered by the strug gling colleges of the South. But there are evils of prosperity as well as evils of adversity. And, despite all our limi tations, it as probably no .more dijhcult for us than for them to secure vigor ous intellectual wqt& jand, wholesome Uving; in fact, I am .encouraged to be- ueve that the conditions are ripe lor the building of some great colleges in the Souui. But we shall have to profit by the experiences of colleges elsewhere by their successes and by their failures. Espec.ally must we learn how to bring the processes of education erfectively to bear on a large proportion of students. -The growing importance that secondary .concerns hold in the thought of, undergraduates is more and more tending to obscure the true ends of a college'-course. If we can take command pf j the situa tion before the tyranny s.Vof public opinion is fastened upon- tss by stu dents, young alHmni, and .Communities taught to demand this sort of enter tainment at the hands of colleges, then I believe It will be possible for us to shift the center of interest, from ath letics and other equally irrelevant un dergraduates absorptions on to the in tellectual pursuits and wholesome rec reations that are proper to college life. This shifting of the center of gravity will be helped by adequate regulation and due subordination of athletics; by demanding strict attendance upon col lege duties: by. exaounga. reasonable amount of intellectual work; and . by enforcing , rigorous standards of scholarship. In developing .our col leges we nave the chance, to put upon self-cultivation and wholesome living an empuasis they do not now .unusual ly get In American coyeges. Our opportunity consists partly, too. in magnifying the , function of the teacher. For its teachers the college needs men of ideas and power rather tnan experts in the several '.branches of learning, 'ine almost exclusive use of scholarship tests in the selection of teachers is, in my judgment,' one of IUB RiancBi utuctvo 111 ALUtJl lCfcUl CM' can' universities. Scholarship enters es sentially into the making of a good teacher, but so do also a genuine in terest in young men and some gift for teaching. Graduate-school ideals have worked themselves down into the col lege to the serious : detriment of the college: , J haye nothing but praise' for the painstaking investigawon and thorough-going honestyhat belong to the pest choiarship of pur time. Unceas ing search for. truth is necessary to en sue the continued progress , of tHe race; and every ; wise man will -keep an open mind towards iiutu in all its phases. : I, of course, believe in perfect freedom to teach and freedom .to learn. But I do not regard the speculative pursuit of new truth as the main end of college education. The search- for trutn is in itself profitable! but . the searcn is most profitable when it. re sults in finding truth and in making the widest applications of It to human we and ., human conduct. An. under-: graduate ought not to be ev.er learn ing, and never ab.e' to come to tbe knowledge of the. truth. The thin air or highly speculative knowledge can4 not nourish nardy&nd robust man hood. Probably everyb,ody knows truth enough to savejhis life if he would use what he knows. Some things, after ill, are known, and there is np neeu for a -man to stop and build his ow bridge every time a bridged rive Crosses his path.- If a perfect college currjcuium couia .s.iramea i oeileve it would insure; to every student fa miliarity wtlh the oesttthat has" been wrought out of "the experience of the raSe and ciose-contact --with such studies as are fitted to produce In him soberness;; righteousness,, and wis dom"; and then it would leave room So rindividual tastes and, aptitudes. 1 ..To give the proper oversight of the studies of undergraduates , is not enough, but ; their living conditions, their conduct and their habits must be looked afterV , The minds need rec tifying, but Just aVVofteu the liyei need to be renovated. ; What pro'fitieth it a man tfto.uga he apeak wiui the tongues of .men and angels, and leave vouege a dyspepM;;. iapugh be ,under-J stand all knowledge and have the h.ablt of spending money that does not -be long to hlni, or pe confirmed m ; any of me other ratal vices that beset col lege youth?' Conduct, as Matthew Ar-j ngiup. jsmu, is more tnan iiiree fourths of uxe. If their work is to be of the highest value, colleges must find and control '. the. motive-powers that lieat ue oasis oi - character. I adm it is hard to keep other things equal; but, otner tnmgs being equal, the so- called small college, "with its intimate contacts ahd direct methods, probable has the best .chance tp .do the, port pi teaching' that forms', as well as in forms. " t -.. V:- - S r.: .'f'n .v i i" ; If the Southern colleges is to :be a leader for conservative. nrbetess in this generation. It must be given a free hand. t To. stand , against reaction- on the - one side and radicalisni on the other, it needs a great 'deal of cower. It must by Its organization be safe guarded against the dangers-of mob opinion and the possibilities of . inef ficient, control. To stand for . correct keep in sympathetic relations with, the people whom it would serve. Is, per haps, the most difficult problem that a Southern coege in our time has to solve. . Regard for the voices of political expediency and pliant opportunism has time and? again proved disastrous to the Southern states as it has often proved disastrous to other American states. .Minds unpracticed in cogent thinking usually seek to catch the nearest way and follow the , line of least resistance. Tne college "that as pires to a place of leadership in the service of the Republic must at times resist with all its power the mighty local . influences that . would sway, it from its true course. To have faith In the future of America at all, or, for that matter, to contemplate human life with any degree of patience, one must believe that the people wish to do right and in the long run and In the main will do right; and more and more" are we going to rely upon the people. But this does not mean, that they have the expert knowledge to manage a college any more than it means that they are competent to ar gue 1 a , ' point of " law before the Su preme Court of the United States, or to treat an. acute case of pneumonia The Kiisepnit .hilitv of a nliable demo cracy to periodic attacks ot nattonaLTa or .sectional hysterics, the of truseqf power of sensational newspapers and alarmist popular leaders to msur rect the public mind" ought in the colleges always ' to find bulwarks against which they dasn themselves In vain. Only the college that, is strong enough to survive these fearful test ings can fuinil in our civilization the mission that great,, colleges should ful fill. Such - colleges must also occasional ly rouse tnemselves.to the sti more ungracious task of resisting the impo sition upon them from the outside of ideas that would hurt them. There are competent and conscientious edu- cauonai experts in our time wno seem to ignore the fact that a college must be in large part the product of develop ment and not a forced growth; and that it should follow tne lines of its own development anu not be made to form itself on some wholly extraneous model, i Forced conformity to types of organization that prevail elsewhere and are then, regarded as ideal would unfit Soutnern - coneges for doing tne very, service to which tney seem" by circumstances to be ordained. Against tuis subtle danger I believe that Trin ity College will set itself with all Its might Another temptation from which our colleges should turn is the temptation to stnve for bigness. The vicious doc trine of numbers us i think, never been more overworked than in Ameri can educational institutions. he de sire to be ig ratner than great is re sponsible for many ot the evils, from wiiicB merican coueges are suner jug today. Some of tae evils are. due to quick growtn and the inability of the colleges at once to" adjust them selves to the new conditions. We at the South have not suffered from this cause, "but we are in danger of deuDer p.tejy taKmg over 1 some of the evils from which circumstances have kept us free. One-result of this over anxiety for size and numbers Js the ruinous tendency for colleges to be concerned primarily about -their immediate in terests more students, bigger build Jngs, increased' appropriations,, .larger gift rather than to serve, and when necessary to 'suffer , for, the .' great causes of men. This kind of striving nust benumb " the noblest aspirations are subject to "the. immutable law oi greatness through service. The great ness of-the college depends not upon the size of its plant or tue number of its students, but upon the quality of the men who teach and the quality of the ' men who learnupon its ideals and its mnuence. we here have no ambition to be mis called a university; we are not even concerned that this shall - be a "big" college; ''but we are. immensely con cerned that it shall be a shining place wnere iign-m,inaea youxn . may - cacu aspiratSdns tor true character and -gen uine excellence, and whence into this vast experi.meni In democratic govern ment that is being tried out on tile American continent, -there shall go a Jorig succession of 'men who have been trained to think straight and to think through to" right conclusions, and made stnrag by the power , to know the truth and the will to Mve it. ." : , ',.
