The Origin of American State Universities is a historical text written by Elmer Ellsworth Brown and published in 1913. The book explores the development of state universities in the United States and their role in higher education. Brown examines the origins of these institutions, tracing their evolution from colonial colleges to the establishment of land-grant universities in the mid-19th century. He also discusses the impact of the Morrill Act, which provided federal funding for the creation of state universities, and the challenges these institutions faced in their early years. The book provides a detailed account of the founding of state universities in various states, including Michigan, Wisconsin, and California, and analyzes the factors that contributed to their success or failure. Overall, The Origin of American State Universities is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of higher education in the United States.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world’s literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
