5.0 out of 5 stars
Fascinating for all concerned about higher ed, then & now,
By A Customer
This review is from: Wesleyan University, 1831-1910: Collegiate Enterprise in New England (Paperback)
Though targeted for an academic audience, this book is spellbinding for anyone interested in the history of higher education in America, not just those with a special connection to Wesleyan. David Potts interweaves institutional history and analysis of broad social trends to document the first seventy years of Wesleyan University.Among the narrative threads of interest to the general reader, Potts shows that questions of coeducation and "racial diversity" have a much longer history than one is led to believe. This reader eagerly awaits the upcoming Vol. II--1910-1969. |
