Within College Walls is a book written by Charles Franklin Thwing and published in 1893. The book provides a detailed account of college life in the late 19th century. Thwing, who was a prominent educator and president of Western Reserve University, offers an insider's perspective on the daily routines, social customs, and academic standards of college students during this time period. The book is divided into several chapters, each focusing on a different aspect of college life. Thwing discusses topics such as the history of American colleges, the role of athletics in college culture, the importance of extracurricular activities, and the challenges faced by students and faculty alike. Throughout the book, Thwing emphasizes the importance of character development and moral education in the college experience. He argues that a college education should not only prepare students for their future careers, but also help them become responsible citizens and moral leaders in their communities. Overall, Within College Walls provides a fascinating glimpse into the world of American higher education in the late 19th century. Thwing's insights and observations are still relevant today, making this book a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of education or the development of American society.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
