This book argues against the conventional idea that Protestantism
effectively ceased to play an important role in American higher
education around the end of the 19th century. Employing Princeton
as an example, the study shows that Protestantism was not abandoned
but rather modified to conform to the educational values and
intellectual standards of the modern university. Drawing upon a
wealth of neglected primary sources, Kemeny sheds new light on the
role of religion in higher education by examining what was
happening both inside and outside the classroom, and by
illustrating that religious and secular commitments were not neatly
divisible but rather commingled.
