Description
Excerpt from President Eliot and Jesuit Colleges
Mr. Charles W. Eliot, President Of Harvard University, published some time ago in the Atlantic Mont/?y, an article advocating the extension Of his elective system to secondary or high schools. Before dismissing his subject he saw fit to transgress the proper scope Of his paper, as indicated by its title, in order to express his views on Moslem and Jesuit Colleges. What peculiar as sociation Of ideas is responsible for the yoking''of Moslems and Jesuits in the same educational category it would be unprofitable to inquire, since it is a question Of merely personal psychol ogy. The present writer, having no brief for the Moslems, is concerned only with the strictures on the Jesuit system. These he thinks are unfounded, sin gularly inexact, and merit attention solely from the fact that they are the pronouncements Of a man standing high in his profession.
