Dear Dr. Ogman:

In response to your recent call for papers for the 1967
meeting of the South Atlantic Philosophy of Education Society,
I enclose a paper for your consideration. I am sure that it
cannot be classified as philosophy of education. Perhavs with
some allowances it can be considered as dealing with foundations

of (higher) education. In any case, I shall appreciate you
considering it.

The paper I am sending you is a condensation of a

paper of something like twenty-five pages, including footnotes,
which I prepared for a history journal and which is to be
published sometime during the next eighteen months or so. In

any case publication would be after our fall meeting. In the
interest of time I am not including documentation in the shorter
version I am sending you. I can supply it, however, should you
wish it. I have spent much of my limited spare time over the
past two years in researching the paper, which is based almost
completely on primary, including manuscript, sources.

I have given the questionnaire concerning philosophy of
education courses to the chairman of our Department of Education.
