What reading level is Prejudices: book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Behind him there is absolutely no tradition pf aristocratic Digitized by Microsoft® EDUCATION 255 aloofness and urbanity, or even of mere civilized decency. He is a hind by birth, and he carries the smell of the dunghill into the academic grove — and not only the smell, but also some of the dung itself.
What one looks for in such men is dullness, super- ficiality, a great credulity, an incapacity for learning anything save a few fly-blown rudiments, a passion- ate yielding to all popular crazes..., a malignant dis- trust of genuine superiority, a huge megalomania.
These are precisely the things that one finds in the typical American pedagogue of the new dispensa- tion. He is not only a numskull; he is also a boor.
In the university president he reaches his heights.
Here we have a so-called learned man who spends his time making speeches before chautauquas, cham- bers of commerce and Rotary Clubs, and flattering trustees who run both universities and street-railways, and cadging money from such men as Rockefeller and Carnegie.
