Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Commencement Annual of the University of Michigan, Vol. 12: June 30, 1892 Each age in the life of the Christian church has been marked by some striking and distinctive characteristic. The age of primitive simplicity was followed by that Of struggle and Suffering. There was a period in which in great councils the intellectual giants of the early church laid deep and strong the theological foundations on which the church builded her confessions. There was a period in which the monastic life with its profound meditations on spiritual things and its inestimable services to learning was the most conspicuous feature in her history. During the last hundred years the missionary spirit has largely pre vailed and has carried the gospel to almost every nation.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Literature in Account With Life: An Address Delivered at the Annual Commencement of the University of Michigan, June 25, 1885 The day Which calls together the sons of a College to cele brate the privilege of their calling as scholars is bright beyond most other days in the calendar. It is sacred to thought, to rea son, to inquiry, to good learning, to liberal culture, *to one of the first interests of life. It is the birthday of a new generation of students, who fill the vacancies Which the years leave. It calls back the students of other days, many of them perhaps remem bering studies which more exacting pursuits long ago brought to an end, but while mourning the disappointment of their young dream, feeling for a day at least that they were once scholars, and have a name and a place in the goodly fellowship. It brings here the guardians, the authorities, the graduates, the students, the friends of this great University, to exchange congratulations, to auspicate the future, to praise the scholar's calling and work.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Culture and Service, 1904: An Address Delivered at the Sixtieth Annual Commencement of the University of Michigan It was my task on that occasion to demolish Taine's philosophy of art, and to do it in six minutes. I pleaded hard for ten, but the inexorable reply was: "No; boil it down. The world will never miss what you leave out!" What I have to say this morning will relate to the ethics of work, - a subject of immense and universal interest, seeing that work is the great law of life for us all. You who leave the University to-day as graduates, are presumably looking forward to a life of labor. You do not expect to be idlers. The vast majority, no doubt, will find themselves face to face with that same interesting dilemma that has confronted the human species since the days of our arboreal ancestry, - the dilemma, work or starve. And you will work. There may be some who are conscious of a special talent for leisure, and who would welcome a chance to exercise the gift rather frequently. Still, even they do not seriously envy our so-called leisure class who live to amuse themselves; for the victims of perennial leisure, whether they wear the clothes of a gentleman, or of a tramp, form one of the most unfortunate elements of the entire population. I think it safe to assume, moreover, that the great majority of you not only expect to work, as a matter of course, but are fairly cheerful over the prospect. You may not feel exactly the eagerness of the hero rejoicing to run a race, but you are not worrying. You are already accustomed to labor in one form and another; and while you may not always have found it exhilarating, it has been in the main quite tolerable. You have no misgivings as to your ability to make friends with what appears to be the natural order of the world, and all you ask is a fair chance to show what you are good for. And all that is well.

This book was released on 2017-11-28 with total page 30 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The University of Michigan, the Sources of Its Power and Its Success: An Address Delivered at the Annual Commencement of the University of Michigan, June 25, 1896 Mechanical Engineering; the tsical Laboratory; the Anatomical Laboratory; the two buildings for heating plants; the Library Building; the Tappan Hall; the Gymnasium; the enlargement of the Law Building; the enlargement of the Engineering Building; and the repeated enlargements of the Chemical Laboratory. Other Universities have made larger expenditures, but it may safely be said that no one has erected or enlarged so many buildings, or enclosed so much of the space of heaven for the money. The ingenuity of the clear mother during this period has been sorely taxed. So faithfully has she obeyed the Scriptural injunction to increase and multiply, that she has not only required new clothes for her new children, but she has had to turn over the old'garments from one child to another, taking in a tuck here, letting out a seam there, setting a patch on the part that is most worn, and putting in supports where there have been signs of giving way. The result has been an educational wardrobe of great usefulness, even if, it has not always been in accord with the latest fashion. But fashion every where seems to be the prerogative of small families. The necessities of this very rapid growth remind one of the necessities of Fred erick William I. You remember that when some. Benevolent ladies presented him with a gorgeous dressing gown, the old king stuffed it in the stove, declaring that he had no use for anything but useful duffel. Surely the University has nut been tempted to imitate this royal example by burning any costly gift, but something of his spirit has been an ever present necessity. 'i he State would not have her sons and daughters sent away for want of shelter; nor would she have'them packed like sardines in the old boxes. With the means at the disposal of the University, the problem has been the mathe matical-zones of how to enclose the largest possible amount of space with the smallest possible amount of money.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Higher Education: A Plea for Making It Accessible to All: An Address Delivered at the Annual Commencement of the University of Michigan, June 26, 1879 The wise men who shaped the organization of this State steadily cherished the idea which was inherited from the fathers, of building a University in which their children, whether pooror rich could obtain the higher culture 'of their mlnds. The plan of a university marked out by the territorial govern ment in 1817 was one which for breadth and completeness of conception we can even now only admire. The language of the Constitution of 1835 shows that its framers had the broadest and most generous views of public provision for the support of libraries, education, including higher education, and especially of the University. We may say, therefore, with strictest truth, that this idea of large and liberal supply of facilities not only for common school training, but also for University education, was inwrought into the very conception of the State of Michigan. It has from the beginning formed a part of the life of the State. It has never been lost, but has grown with the growth of the State, and strengthened with its strength. And it has, I believe, never had so firm a hold upon the State as it has to-day. In the light of accomplished results, when we consider how little the total cost of the University has been to the State, less than half a million of dollars, not more in fact than these build in gs and grounds and museums and libraries are worth; when we remember that it has sent forth graduates, most of them persons of humble means, equipped for duty in all worthy call ings of life; that the names and the works of its professors are known and respected on both sides of the Atlantic; that it is re. Cognized, we may modestly say, as taking rank with the best Universities in. The land, and that it has helped in no small de gree to make the name of Michigan known wherever the culti vation of science and letters is respected, may we not gratefully and truly declare that the fathers, whose legislation made this career of the University possible, had an exalted and statesman like conception of the duty of the State to the higher education.

Harris and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-02-02 with total page 22 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Complete Education: An Address Delivered at the Annual Commencement of the University of Michigan, July 1, 1880 Hardly less cruel is the introduction of a false utilitarianism into education\/ In education, the usefulness of a study is not to be measured by its availability for the business purposes of later life; but solely by its fitness to develop or educate the student's powers. Till that is completed he should never be required or permitted to learn a thing simply because he hopes to use it to make money with. The object of education is not to learn useful things, but to become able to learn and to use them; and it is a great wrong to the student to intrude the in struments and the spirit of mere money-getting into his educa tional life. Permit me to say that the practical denial or neglect of this is working unnumbered evils to this generation. In too many cases education is dwarfed or perverted by a prevailing tone and temper of false utilitarianism. The allurements of mammon and worldliness are too often permitted to call our ingenuous youth away from the pi'oper business of the school and college. Short roads and by-paths are opened up to tempt them to abandon the proper work of education, and to go prema turely to schools of professional and technical instruction. The consequence is the sending forth of half-educated men, and in experienced men to plead the causes, and heal the diseases, and lead the thinking of the generation. Let us all protest against this great evil; for unless it is counteracted it will lead to the impoverishment of the age. Let our colleges and universities make men first, and then make lawyers, and physicians, and teachers of them. Ordinarily, so far as education is concerned and we are confining our attention to that now - the only path to thoroughly complete manhood is through thorough educational training. The study of Latin and Greek and the higher mathe maties, of rhetoric and logic, and mental and moral philoso phy; these are the useful studies while a man is being educated; these are the studies by which such men as Newton and Bacon, and Butler, and Stephenson, and Gladstone were made. I rejoice to know that steadfast adhesion to this principle is ruling in the councils of this institution more and more. I rejoice to learn that the number of students who take the full classical and phi los0phical course, is steadily increasing. I rejoice to believe that utilitarianism, so called, is being discouraged here; and I hope that the day is speedily coming when none but those who have taken their bachelor's degree, will expect to be admitted to the professional schools of this great University.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Debt of Civilization to Literature: An Address Delivered at the Annual Commencement of the University of Michigan, Thursday, June 28, 1883 The honor you have done me in giving this opportu nity to address you imposes, I am well aware, some serious responsibility in the choice of a theme. And if I come before you with no discussion of what are called the burning questions of the day, it is partly because I dis trust my own ability to handle them still more, because I have noticed that our men of affairs are often glad to forget such questions in these hours consecrated to aca demic memories; and most of all, because of the convic tion, that such occasions demand, with rare exéeptions, discussion of topics that lie more closely Within the range of scholastic themes and pursuits. I venture the more confidently upon my chosen line of thought, because ot the assurance that any word worthily spoken on topics re lating to the interests of general culture will be sure of a patient and kindly hearing in this centre of thorough aca demic training. My subject then, let me say without fur ther introduction, is literature considered as a social force, the part which literature has played in our modern social progress.
