A Small Secession?

THE MEDIEVAL WORLD is evoked more and more among us. Now Mr. Paul Goodman, a very “progressive” writer, commends the idea of the college which was a reality in the ages of faith, arguing that it was a true community of learned men and earnest students. And he sees the modern American college as sham and failure, with few honorable exceptions.
