Suggestions as to an Unitarian College . 513
Untitled Article
Sir , Torquay . AS the idea of a new Unitarian College seems to have engaged the attention of several of your readers , I take the liberty of sending ; you a few remarks on tifc&t subject . In the first place , it appears to me highly desirable that all the efforts of ofcr body , m this way , should becoa ^ centraited on one institution . I need
hardly go into much argument in support of this position , because it will Ue evident , to a very little reflection , that the advantages or a place of education depend most essentially on ita aflbrdikig the best instruction and liberal Competition . Now , though all our contributions should be devoted to one
academy , and all our studetets brought together there , it would still not be on so ample a scale but that it might , very advantageously , both with respect to tuition and competition , be much enlarged . How undesirable is it , there , that we should divide our efforts in
attempting to support a plurality of these institutions i If we do this , we cf * n assuredly never ^ ive to any one of them that respectability and permanence , and those superior advantages , as a plaee of education , which Vve ought to aim at , mid which we certainly can tittaSn * if we unite all omr exertions in the advancement of a single establishment . This , then , is
