Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book chronicles the history of Berea College, founded in 1855, and the life of its fifth president, Francis Hutchins. Against a backdrop of civil war, racial division, and profound social change, this institution and its leader played a unique role in shaping American education for almost a century. By offering educational opportunities to students from all backgrounds, Berea challenged traditional norms and championed social justice. Its founder, a devout abolitionist, created a place where free and enslaved people could learn and live together. During Hutchins's presidency, Berea expanded its reach by integrating college-level programs into its offerings, ensuring that future generations would have access to higher education regardless of economic or social status. The author's exploration of the motivations behind these transformative achievements provides a valuable perspective on the history of American education and its continuing struggle for inclusivity and equity.
