About This Item
Yale University Press, 1997. 1st Edition 1st Printing. Hardcover. As New/As New. As New copy in like dustwrapper. First printing with full number line. Practically brand new book except for gift inscription at first page. Otherwise crisp, intact and unmarked. 214 pages with Notes, Bibliography and Index. Since the late nineteenth century, a number of American universities - Harvard, Yale, Princeton, the University of Chicago, the Claremont Colleges, and the University of California at Santa Cruz - have attempted to organize students and faculty into small undergraduate residential colleges similar to those at Oxford and Cambridge... This book tells the story of these efforts - some successful and some not - adding a new chapter to the history of higher education in America.
