Synopsis
This book proposes nothing less than the establishment of a national university in the United States, which the author argues should be a project of true national importance. The author believes the time is right for such a colossal institution that will surpass all other educational establishments across the globe for centuries to come. The author suggests it should be located in a new educational metropolis near Washington DC, where it will benefit from the advantages of proximity to the nation's capital yet maintain intellectual and moral vigor unsullied by the distractions of commercial or manufacturing ventures. Drawing on historical precedents and projecting a vision many hundreds of years into the future, the author makes a compelling case for the establishment of an institution that will create the optimal environment for the pursuit of knowledge for generations to come. This captivating and ambitious proposal offers deep insights into the role of education in a democracy and the urgent need for cultivating the intellectual development of the nation's citizens in an ever-changing world.
