To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
and A.B. ; and soon after President Wayland's retirement in 1 855, the former was restored to the position it had formerly held and four years were required for the degree of Bachelor of Arts. But, despite some disappointments which at- tended the introduction of the new system, a principle was involved which could not fail to have extended application in the development of our educational meth- ods, and its emphatic indorsement by Wayland has had a permanent influence. Plainly it was not Way- ...land's intention to dispense with strict discipline. An indefatigable worker, he desired to inculcate habits of C 185 J Brown University thoroughness, and to enrich as well as to extend the courses of instruction. At the very beginning of his administration he had insisted that the officers should " be actual residents within the walls of the college" in order to insure proper supervision; and text-books, ex- cept in the languages, were not allowed in the recita- tion rooms. His intense desire was to increase the ser- vice of the institution to the community, and almost his last words — at the one hundredth anniversary of the college — expressed this thought: "I hope that you, gentlemen, may see these views familiar as household words to the whole civilized world, so that every semi- nary of higher education shall scatter broadcast, over the whole community, over every rank and every class, over every profession and every occupation in life, the benefits of knowledge and the blessings of religion." Wayland's keen and vigorous intellect, his strength of will, his tremendous energy, his profound religious convictions, the constant display of his masterfulness, left a lasting mark upon the character of his pupils.
