EXCELLENCE ENGAGED

“The wealth of nations now depends on the performance of higher education as never before, through its contributions to building human capital and accumulated knowledge; and so does the military competition among great powers - potentially, quite literally, a matter of life and death. The political health of nations also now depends, as never before, on higher education to help create greater opportunities throughout the population, to help break down hereditary class lines.” Clark Kerr

“A university, like all other human institutions - like the church, like governments, like philanthropic organizations - is not outside, but inside the general social fabric of a given era . . . it is . . . an expression of an age, as well as an influence operating upon both present and future.”

Abraham Flexner
