Excerpt from University of Virginia, Vol. 1: Its History, Influence, Equipment and Characteristics, With Biographical Sketches and Portraits of Founders, Benefactors, Officers and Alumni

Account must be taken of all the vast elements and interests which enter into the prob l'ems of modern politics on the largest scale, national and international, and which demand the exercise of the highest powers and broadest sympathies. The dealing with such interests and handling of such instruments is a great trust, the exercise of which will require a strict account before the tribunal of history. All these considerations were in the mind of the Father of the University of Virginia. The plans which he formulated and the spirit which he inculcated at the beginning were such as to require no other changes in the clays which followed after the close of his work, save those growing out of increased knowledge in special departments.
