Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book, written in the early 20th century, provides a historical account of student life at Yale, seen through the eyes of the author who spent ten years at the university as a student and faculty member. The author provides a firsthand account of the widespread use of tutoring among students. He argues that tutoring is unfair to students who cannot afford it and that it prevents students from developing their own critical thinking skills. Additionally, the author explores the idea of insanity, arguing that universities create both lunatics and maniacs. Lunatics are characterized by their inability to concentrate, while maniacs are characterized by their obsessive focus on a single idea. The author believes that the best minds are those that can alternate between these two states. The book provides a unique and thought-provoking perspective on the challenges and opportunities of higher education. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item.…
