Riassunto

Excerpt from Notes on Polytechnic or Scientific Schools in the United States: Their Nature, Position, Aims Wants

Second - The general English sense, of corporate institutions, intended for purposes of instruction, and surrounded by colleges, as incorporated and endowed lodging places; but to which the university has quite abandoned the work of instruction. Thus the university is a blank form, and the colleges have advanced from merely, each, giving instruction in some one or two branches, to the rank of competitors, with each other, in giving an entire collegiate course, mostly under tutorial instruction, for an academic degree, or a professional degree, in the old professions. Efforts have been made, however, to reform the English Universities in this respect.
