Book The McGill University Magazine  1905  Vol  4  Classic Reprint

Download or read book The McGill University Magazine 1905 Vol 4 Classic Reprint written by McGill University and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-10-24 with total page 402 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The McGill University Magazine, 1905, Vol. 4 Speaking of universities, there are some questions at least which might very well be discussed by their representatives in conference, questions which bear vitally on the emciency of their teaching, inasmuch as they concern means accessible to the lecturer. Take, for instance, the procuring of new works written by recognized authorities. If such happen to be in French or English and are not of strictly technical character they are submitted to a duty of 10 per cent. Of their value. Could they be bought exempt from duty by professors, they would be procured in many instances, whereas at present the duty is felt to be a burden too heavy to be borne by those whose salaries can scarcely do more than furnish the means of respectable living. It is true that works cited as text-books in the calendar of any university in Canada are admitted without duty, but it would be obviously utterly impossible to make such a regulation apply to the case in point. A protest from any single university weighs lightly with the government for the simple reason that no political force lies behind it, whereas a conjoint protest might be made effective, especially if it were felt that universities were throwing themselves seriously into an endeavour to remove an iniqui tous, if legal, grievance, and were using all the influence that widely scattered and numerous graduates could be made to exert. There is, perhaps, something unacademic in turning to the mere calculation. Of votes and parading it, but that seems to be the only effective method of bringing about a change that would certainly affect the higher edu cation of the country for the better. And then there is the unanswerable argument that the reform suggested has nothing to do with the pub liebere, because the mere attempt to publish large works of an advanced and sometimes abstract character would result in insolvency. If it be claimed that popular or elementary academic literature has to be pro tected by an enactment which bears heavily on a small but highly responsible class, so much the worse for the argument.

This book was released on 2015-07-16 with total page 680 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The University Magazine, Vol. 13 For many years Canada went quietly, doing a safe, snug business, meeting conditions as they arose, cultivating old markets, and finding new markets when old ones were closed. Then the spirit of finance came upon us and delivered us over to the delusion that a man becomes rich by spending, and a nation great according to the greatness of the burden of taxation which it bears, when, in reality, the only source of national wealth is the labour of the community. And all this was done in the name of development of the country, under the influence of leaders whose idea of develop ment was the expenditure of money, so that they themselves might retain a share. Having little money of our own, we were induced to borrow it, and the way to borrow was to advertise. Croakers and niggards were reminded that ome lets cannot be made without breaking eggs. Now, we have all discovered that breaking eggs does not in itself make an omelet. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book The McGill University Magazine  Vol  1

Download or read book The McGill University Magazine Vol 1 written by Mcgill University and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-01-18 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The McGill University Magazine, Vol. 1: Dec., 1901 Our statements are not intended to refer to history or literature merely they are equally applicable to science. Personally, we con fess to knowing but little of the work that is being done by the scientific societies of the university; however, an echo of it reaches our ears now and then from our colleagues. We have not the faintest sympathy with scorn of science any more than with scorn of litera ture. The methods of scientific research and of true literary criticism coincide at more points than one; indeed, we quite agree with the modern critic who says that the proposition which seems to stand most in need of assertion at the present moment, is that there is an inductive science of literary criticism. To turn elsewhere, the brilliant discoveries of which Philology can boast have been made by the appli cation of strict scientific method, and by minds in no wise inferior to those regarded with honour by men of science. This is not the place to dwell on these questions, and we may leave them in remarking that some whose pursuits are not now scientific, are thankful for having read in youth John Stuart Mill's statement that no man who did not know one science well could be said to be properly educated. To those whose chief concern is literature, the summary of a paper on some purely scientific matter of general interest ought, if couched in suficiently popular terms, to prove acceptable. Again, the proceed ings of the Medical Society, if they happen to touch on matters that bear on the life of the ordinary citizen as a member of a civic com munity, might very well find a place in our pages. Briefly, we are convinced that there are many undergraduates who would prefer to have the more serious diversions of the undergraduate world recorded.
