Book Overview

Collegiate Education in Colorado is a historical book written by Thomas Nelson Haskell in 1874. The book provides a detailed account of the state of higher education in Colorado during the late 19th century. Haskell explores the history, development, and current state of the colleges and universities in Colorado, including the University of Colorado, Colorado College, and the Colorado School of Mines.The author delves into the challenges and opportunities that faced these institutions during their early years, such as limited funding, lack of resources, and the need to attract qualified faculty and students. Haskell also examines the curriculum and educational philosophy of these institutions, highlighting the importance of a broad liberal arts education in addition to specialized training in fields such as engineering and mining.In addition to discussing the colleges and universities themselves, Collegiate Education in Colorado also provides insights into the broader social and cultural context of higher education in the state. Haskell explores the role of education in shaping the identity and aspirations of Colorado's citizens, as well as the ways in which higher education was intertwined with the state's economic and political development.Overall, Collegiate Education in Colorado is a fascinating and informative historical account of the early years of higher education in this western state. It provides a valuable perspective on the challenges and opportunities that faced these institutions during their formative years, and sheds light on the role of education in shaping the identity and future of a young and growing state.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
