ABSTRACT
In Scotland, for instance, where higher education has been within reach of the people for many years, and where the people have reached a high degree of civilization, it is not out of place for the young people to give their time and attention to the study of metaphysics and of law and the other professions. Anybody that knows anything about industrial education knows that it teaches a person just the opposite-how not to work. It teaches him to make water work for him, air, steam, and all the forces of nature. That is what is meant by industrial education. If education means anything at all, it means putting brains into the common affairs of life and making something of them. That is just what students are seeking to tell to the world through the work of the institution. There are many opportunities all about students where they can use their education.
