Sinopsis
Excerpt from The Study of Statistics in Colleges
I have enumerated. With all the training of the schools, the European statistician lacks the grand opportunities which are open to the American. Nowhere has the former been able to project and carry out a Census involving points beyond the simple enumeration of the people, embracing a few inquiries relating to social conditions: such inquiries rarely extending beyond those necessary to learn the ages, places of birth, and occupations of the population. Such a Census, compared with the ninth and tenth Federal enumerations of the United States, appears but child's play.

Excerpt from The Study of Statistics in Colleges
America has no counterpart to the continental school of statisticians, whose members have entered their particular field of science after special training by a systematic course of instruction. We have our statisticians, to be sure, but they have taken up their work accidentally, and not as a profession. Men engaged in the practice of law or of medicine, or in the other learned professions, enter them only after careful preparation. Our government trains its soldiers and sailors; our colleges and higher institutions of learning fit men for various special scientific and professional labors, but we have not yet reached the advanced stage of educational work in this country which comprehends administration in its broadest terms. The European has an advantage over those engaged in statistical work in this country. Many of the leading colleges and universities of the continent make special effort to fit men to adopt statistical science as a branch of administration, or as a profession.
Korosi, Neumann-Spallart, Ernst Engel, Block, Bohmert, Mayr, Levasseur, and their score or more of peers, may well excite our envy, but more deeply stimulate the regret that one of their number, from his brilliant training and his scientific attainments, can not present to you today the necessity of copying into the curricula of our American colleges the statistical features of the foreign school.
