This is a collection of excerpts from the public addresses of
Robert F. Goheen during his twelve years as President of Princeton
University. The emphasis is on the people whose responsibility it
is to promote and defend the principles underlying the modern
American university-students, faculty, administrators, trustees,
alumni. Several fundamental themes emerge the theme of individual
responsibility, and the ever-present need to join rational
intelligence with moral commitment, for example. Dr. Goheen sees
the university as a continuing institution with long range goals,
responding conservatively (in its best sense) to the human needs of
the times. He seeks to define its institutional relationships in
the context of the university's tasks in educ1tion and research,
which must be understood and kept in balance if universities are to
serve their functions effectively Originally published in 1969. The
Princeton Legacy Library uses the latest print-on-demand technology
to again make available previously out-of-print books from the
distinguished backlist of Princeton University Press. These
editions preserve the original texts of these important books while
presenting them in durable paperback and hardcover editions. The
goal of the Princeton Legacy Library is to vastly increase access
to the rich scholarly heritage found in the thousands of books
published by Princeton University Press since its founding in 1905.
