Excerpt from Arbutus, 1909 However, by the statistics above quoted, Indiana University stands eleventh among the twenty-five leading colleges and uni versities graded according to the total attendance in the Liberal Arts Department, and sixth, by the same standard, among all the State universities.

The argu ments raised at the beginning of the last century by some of the scientific giants of that period greatly influenced college curricula, especially in America. Since the beginning of the utilitarian cam paign we have yielded more and more to the demands for useful education, for education that will fit men and women for the par ticular kind of work which is to be their vocation in life. This is the day of specialists has been the cry, and the universities have listened to the cry. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
