What reading level is What the War Means to Education; Convocation Address book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
We learned that our governmental machinery was rusty with age and circumlocution. We discovered that, far from having unlimited agricultural and mineral resources, a few months, or even a few weeks, might bring us to national starvation and death from cold.
WAR AND EDUCATION 7 And we found ourselves compelled to take exact stock of our human energy, to count it out, indi- vidual by individual, for service in battle, in the factory and on the farm, and, to our increasing alarm, we are discoverin...g that those human resources have a very definite limitation both in numbers and in fitness for the tasks that they must do. So, practi- cally for the first time in our haphazard American life, we are facing the inexorable fact that we have been a nation wasteful beyond all others and that this waste must stop. And that stopping can come only through an education which is no longer waste- ful, and through a focusing of that education to a large degree upon the problems of preventing wastes.
Education, after the great War, will no longer be, I believe, a spendthrift in itself and a praiser and promoter of extravagance.
