To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
That is the enterprise of knowledge, an enterprise that is the common undertaking of all men who pray for the greater enlightenment of the ages to come. If you do anything to mar this process, this organic integration of the university, what have you done? You have destroyed the Princeton idea which for the time being has arrested the attention of the academic world. Is that good busi- ness? When we have leadership in our grasp, is it good business to retire from it? When the coimtry is looking... to us as men who prefer ideas even to money, are we going to withdraw and say, "After all, we find we were mis- taken: we prefer money to ideas?" This may be as good a point as any at which to make it clear that the anti-Wilson sentiment was far from general among the alumni; it was 148 WOODROW WILSON practically confined to the cities of the East.
In the Board of Trustees, fourteen out of the "thirty took their stand against him; the deciding few wavered. The fine body of faculty mem- bers engaged in graduate work were practically unanimous in their support of the president's sound, scholarly, and practical plans, and en- tirely unsympathetic with the ornate dreams of the dean.
