Book excerpt: Excerpt from Education Abroad and Other Papers For our youth, American schools are better than European. To send our boys or girls away to foreign boarding schools is a great mistake, or rather, one of the fashionable follies which is just now having its day. With fashion one cannot reason. I do not object that this fashion is costly in money, for that is one of its attractions, but costly in what is worth vastly more than gold, namely, character and practical culture. This fash ion of to-day, experience and a wiser self-respect will surely rectify when the comparative results of the two systems come to be better understood. The fond hopes so often wrecked in foreign lands will at least serve as beacons in the future. It is not in France alone that a moral malaria pervades the atmos phere. The example of other cities besides Paris and Naples refutes the plausible but pernicious aphorism of Burke, that vice loses half its evil by parting with all its grossness. In these luxurious centres a voluptuous refinement veils the gross est immorality under simulations of delicacy, if not under the sanctions of law, and licenses vice herself, if only robed in the semblance of propriety. A thin veneering covers the foulest corruption. To offend against taste is worse than to break the ten commandments, and vice has less to fear than vulgarity.

Download or read book Schools at Home and Abroad Classic Reprint written by R. E. Hughes and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-01-14 with total page 348 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Schools at Home and Abroad These essays and addresses on educational topics have been prepared at various times, and for varying audiences. Several of them were prepared for gatherings of. Primary teachers, others for gatherings of parents and persons interested in education. Some repetition and apparent diversity seem almost inevitable in a collection of essays written under these circumstances. Yet the writer thinks that, beneath this repetition and diversity, the essential unity of attitude, so to speak, is preserved. There will be noticed too in the text local references, but the reader will see that the argument demands such local point, and he will be able to vary the reference to suit the environment. The purpose of the writer is not an ambitious one. He makes no claim to originality in any respect. His aim throughout has been to make available to teachers and others interested in education, the valuable mass of material that, in the form of educational statistics and reports, has been collected both by Government offices and by private individuals. Were a list of the many writers consulted added, it would seem pedantic; and, as the author claims no originality for himself, it is hoped that the omission of such a list will be excused.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Guide to Study Abroad: University, Summer School, Tour and Work-and-Study Programs; 1962-1963 Edition But 20th century man, and especially the 2oth century American, is called upon to strive for greater objectives than mere individual pursuit of knowledge or even service to his own nation. Catapulted into the jet and space age, confronted with fantastically expanded horizons, he can no longer think in terms of national boundaries or natural barriers. Rather, he must think on a scale of global involvement and interdependency. The mutual exchange of students between nations is a vital part of any program to attain world peace through better understanding, to distribute technical knowledge from developed to underdeveloped countries, to share more equitably the world's social and economic bounty, and to promote an exchange of information and ideas. These goals can be ignored only at our peril. They must be met with a sense of compelling urgency. As Americans, we have been so preoccupied for so many decades with developing our own land and with solving our own national problems that we have neglected the study of other peoples, other languages, and other cultures. Whatever the justification for this mental isolationism in a by-gone age, it is a luxury we can no longer afford. At a time when many of our government agencies lack the skilled manpower to discharge our international commitments, we find Russia and China deploying hordes of students and technicians abroad in order to acquire vital skills of speech and technology, to get the feel of other countries, and to understand the thinking of other peoples. These emissaries are also in a position to explain the vagaries of Russian and Chinese policies; nu doubtedly they leave their imprint, particularly upon the intelligentsia with whom they associate in the colleges and universities they attend. As I look ahead to the challenges confronting America, I would strongly urge our qualified young men and women to consider the prospect of some study abroad. In our position of world leadership, we need citizens with a knowledge of foreign countries and fluency in other languages to ad minister and carry on our global commitments: to run our far-flung aid programs, to enable us to communicate effectively and advantageously with other countries, and to interpret our policies and programs directly to those with whom we deal. In short, we must speak to other peoples in their tongues and within their own terms. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
