It is fitting that the Government of the United States should assume the obligation of the establishment and maintenance of a first-class university for the education of colored menand I wish to put in this caveatthat the colored race today, all of them, would be better off if they all had university education....

University presidents should be loud and forceful in defending the university as a social good, essential to the democratic culture and economy of a nation.
