Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the evolution of the concept of a university as seen through the lens of one of the United States' oldest and most distinguished institutions, Rice University in Texas. The author takes a deep dive into the archives to reveal the hopes and dreams of its founder and…the challenges faced in his quest to build a world-class institution in the early 1900s. The author shows how Rice has stayed true to its founding principles, while also adapting to the changing tides of society during the past century. The book chronicles the fascinating stories of past and present presidents, students, and professors, capturing the vitality, diversity, and spirit that have guided this remarkable institution. Through the in-depth examination of the history of Rice University, this book offers a broader perspective on the history of higher education in the United States and the ongoing debates over the purpose and value of a college or university education in society.
