What reading level is University Problems in the United States book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The Peabody Museum, the Win- chester Observatory, with its far-famed heliometer, and the Street School of the Fine Arts shed their light, like the sun, on all the university ; but the gift of George Peabody especially contributed to the growth of a school in which mineralogy, geology, and zoology were prominent subjects of instruction.
Still, Sheffield has not been held by the leading- strings of its mother. It has had a large amount of independence. Its funds, buildings, appoint- ments, have b...een its own. The professors have been its governing board, controlling its courses and its funds, subject to the oversight of the presi- dent and fellows. On one occasion, at least, the faculty asked permission of the astonished corpora- tion to reduce their own salaries, and the request was granted!
Thus it has come to pass that no "conflict of studies " has been heard of ; no hostility between science and letters ; no " warfare " between science and religion. The Sheffield School has always stood for the idea of a liberal education in which scientific studies should predominate, but in which a moderate amount of Latin and of modern lan- guages is required ; history and economics are also taught.
