This book explores the efforts of educational reformers who sought
to link secondary and higher education in the decades after 1870.
Through various state, regional, and national initiatives, these
reformers created a hierarchical system, laid the foundation for a
growing standardization in education, and influenced who would have
access to college. Neither higher education nor the secondary
branches dominated the other in creating this educational system.
Rather, through debate, argument, and accommodation, the two levels
mutually shaped each other in a time of significant political and
economic change. Reformers today wrestle with this legacy as they
continue to forge connections between the two educational levels.
