Signed and inscribed by the co-editor, Gary S.Hauk, with blue pen on the second title page. "This book celebrates men and women whose spirit of inquiry - their sense of curiosity and ways of thinking - nudged them down paths that tested their mettle. Most passed the test. Sometimes risking social disfavor or finding themselves at odds with academic convention, occasionally doing nothing more than inhabiting the scholar's lonely solitude, most of the characters who fill these pages also filled their lives and those of their friends and colleagues with a quiet courage that shaped their world for the better. Their courage also made a better Emory. Institutions. like individuals, do not always manifest the ancient virtues of fortitude, moderation, justice, and wisdom, as the latest news reports confirm. Institutions draft charters, credos, mission statements, and mottos, just as individuals adopt philosophies and creeds. When institutions succeed in meeting those high standards, it is because of the men and women who live up to them. Emory University, now close to the end of its second century, has sought to square action with rhetoric and model the best aims of education. Whether establishing new programs or undermining long-held assumptions, moving to another city or pausing campus development to examine principles, the institution has asked difficult questions. Emory has endured because of the virtue and stamina of individual men and women who knew where this courageous inquiry should lead. The forty-four chapters in this book tell story after story of an academic community striving to exercise the courage of its ideals and its questions." - from the inner front jacket flap.
