Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Higher Education in Indiana Sir: The monograph which I have the honor herewith to submit gives a sketch of the history of Higher Education in Indiana. It con tains an outline of the free common school system of the State, a brief account of the State's educational history in the development of its common schools; and a historical account of the origin, growth, and development and the present condition of Indiana's various institutions for Higher Education. It calls attention to the early land legislation of the Continental Congress, and to the important influence of that legislation upon the future States of the Northwest; to the incidents and causes leading to the adoption of the Ordinance of 1787, and to the great Importance of that Ordinance in the subsequent educational de veiopment of these commonwealths; and the sketch shows that from the earliest Territorial days until the present time, the relation of the State to education, both elementary and higher, has been close and constant. At no time has the State acknowledged that any department of education, from the elementary schools to the university, was beyond its province.

Management of Permanent Funds. It will thus be seen that the Indiana School Fund has been gathered from very diverse sources, is unequally productive, and variously iranaged. The preceding chapters have aimed, primarily, to present the question historically, tracing the moneys from their origin as State investments, deposits, or proceeds, through their more important modifications, and chiefly for the first period. Some of the funds, as that derived, or supposed to be, from the sale of swamp lands, and certain of the contingent funds, resting upon more recent legislation, have been followed down to the present. This seemed necessary, to make the view complete. As has been seen, however, the new Constitution provided for the consolidation of all the endowments of elementary education into one "Common School Fund." In so far as this relates to the Congressional Township Fund, it had been repeatedly urged by Prof. Mills in his messages to the Legislature (1846-'50), and again in his letters to the convention. The experience of Michigan, admitted a State in 183, almost twenty years after Indiana, but with a school system from 1837, emphasizes the unwisdom of the Indiana policy during that first generation of Statehood. It was advocated also in the convention by friends of a State-controlled system, and particularly by leading members of the Committee on Education. Hence the provision of the new Constitution. Such policy, it was argued, would greatly simplify the management, the disbursement of revenues would be more economical, resources would be equalized for the State--the richer and the poorer localities sharing privileges and responsibilities alike--and the standard of general intelligence uniformly...

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Higher Education in Indiana, Vol. 10 The direct work Of the State in higher learning is to be especially noticed. The most interesting phase in the history and development of edu cation in the West is to be seen in the attitude of the State. There never has been a time when the right of government to provide for education Of some kind has been called in question by any considerable body of thinking people. Both the elementary and the higher educa tion were provided for by many Of the early colonies, especially by those of New England. And from the time of the first land grant for common school purposes by the Congress of 1785, State aid to education has been an acknowledged principle of the American people - even those Of the most conservative individualism conceding, in some measure, the right and duty of the State to educate.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Indiana Schools and the Men Who Have Worked in Them Introduction. - Being one year older than my native State, I have witnessed its rapid transition from a wilderness, mainly inhabited by savages, to a rank in civilization and intelligence surpassed by but few of her sister states. While Indiana is the twenty-fourth State in area, she is first in her invested school fund, which amounts to $8,799,191; the fifth in population and in the number of her schools; the sixth in churches; the seventh in wealth; and the twenty-second in bonded indebtedness. These items may be taken as the best index of the character of her people. I have seen the old-fashioned teacher behind his desk in true "Ichabod" style, just as he came across the ocean, who taught reading, writing, and ciphering as the full common school curriculum. I have witnessed the neighborhood sensations when English grammar, geography, history, and philosophy, were introduced.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Contribution of the Society of Friends to Education in Indiana Among the more comprehensive and more valuable studies made of educational activities under religious denominations in the early history of Indiana is that of Mrs. Ethel mcdaniel, of Wilkinson, Indiana, on the contribution of the Society of Friends. This intensive study of education among the Friends in Indiana is the story of pioneer hardships and endurance, of heroic efforts and sacrifices. Some of their history has never been written and it is now impossible to compile because of the destruction of records and the passing of interested persons. Nevertheless, from scattered records and from survivors who had a firsthand knowledge of early Quaker schools in Indiana, it has been possible to piece together a more complete and accurate account of the activities and accomplishments of this important element of our population than heretofore.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Civic Education in Elementary Schools As: Illustrated in Indianapolis Sir: From the inception of the tax-supported public school systems in the United States, one of their most important functions has been to give the instruction and training necessary for the intelligent performance of the duties of citizenship. Indeed, this work of preparation for citizenship has been and is still one of the strongest arguments for making education a function of the State and in justification of the levying of taxes for the support of schools. As the government and industrial and social life become more democratic, the importance of this function of the schools becomes more evident and necessary and the means of giving the necessary instruction and training becomes keener and more general. For several years the public schools of the city of Indianapolis have had a reputation for unusually good work in this direction. Since example adds much to the effectiveness of theory, and may be even more useful in results, I requested Mr. Arthur W. Dunn, the bureau's specialist in civic education, to make a careful study of this work in these schools for the purpose of making a concise report of its more important features. This Mr. Dunn was the better able to do because of the fact that he was at one time connected with the schools of Indianapolis as director of instruction and training in civics. The manuscript transmitted herewith is the result of this study. I recommend that it be published as a bulletin of the Bureau of Education. Respectfully submitted.
