“Arising out of this situation and out of the spread of
science in every field, including education, have come two
streams of influence, powerful in nature and impelling in their
forcefulness. These two streams, however, have been actuated
by the same purpose or motive,—that is, the careful, method-
ical, and (so far as possible) scientific study of every matter
and of every problem in the field of higher education. One
of these streams of influence arises out of public opinion,
which is demanding a stricter accounting of the claims of edu-
cation, and the other flows directly from the spread and the
increasing popularity of science everywhere, including the
field of education. The result is that college and university
administration and instruction are now for the first time com-
ing under the spotlight of scientific scrutiny and inquiry.”

“Higher Education in America” enables all students of
education to follow intelligently one of the major educational

movements of today.
