Description: The author argues that the American educational institutions should clearly define their intellectual and moral purposes and strive conscientiously to fulfill them. He points out that Americans have placed their trust in certain schools, colleges and universities who have not always reciprocated.
Synopsis: In this work, the author points out that Americans have placed their trust, not in an abstract concept of "American education", but in particular schools, colleges and universities. These institutions are therefore obliged to bear that trust faithfully. To do so - and he argues that many have not - educational institutions must clearly define their intellectual and moral purposes and strive conscientiously to fulfill them.
