To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
This is done in the first place by the instruction of pupils. Experience has certainly demonstrated that with rare excep- tions, those men are most learned who produce most. The process of acquiring seems to be pro- moted by that of imparting. The investigator who is surrounded by a bright circle of friendly inqui- sitors and critics, finds his best powers developed by this influence. Next to its visible circle of pupils, the university should impart its acqui- sitions to the world of scholars.... Learned publications are therefore to be encouraged. But beyond these formal and well recognized means of communicating knowledge, universities have innumerable less obvious, but not less useful opportunities of conveying their benefits to the outside world. 5 These general principles I propose to illus- trate by asking you to go with me around the circle of the sciences, that we may observe the part which universities have taken or should take in respect to various departments of knowledge^ 20 Universities and Civilization.
