Historical Foundations of Education: Bridges from the Ancient World to the Present
Today, Harvard is considered an institution of liberal-elites perpetuating power among the few in business, government, and non-profit worlds. Truth always lies somewhere in the middle. Veritas, however, gives the reader insight in how the current thinking about the university evolved throughout American history. It provides some interesting historical facts about not just the school but also the fashions of thinking in its past eras. It brings to like what people did not because they attended Harvard, instead because they had beliefs in themselves and their purposes that the school nurtured.
Readers will learn as much about American history reading the book as about Harvard. What caught my interest was their evolution on admitting and graduating blacks and women. Whatever one may think of Harvard, it is a groundbreaking place, and there are some interesting stories told about not only the liberal-elites, but the everyday men and women, whose names are not know outside of the school's history, who made an impact on America.
