“In our dreams, people yield themselves with perfect
docility to our molding hands. The present education conventions of
intellectual and character education fade from their minds and unhampered by
tradition we work our own good will upon a grateful and responsive folk. We
shall not try to make these people or any of their children into men of
learning or philosophers, or men of science. We have not to raise up from them
authors, educators, poets or men of letters, great artists, painters,
musicians, nor lawyers, doctors, statesmen, politicians, creatures of whom we
have ample supply. The task is simple. We will organize children and teach them
in a perfect way the things their fathers and mothers are doing in an imperfect
way.” ~ First mission statement of the J.D. Rockefeller-endowed General
Education Board in 1906
"We want one class of persons to have a liberal education, and we want another class of persons, a very much larger class, of necessity, in every society, to forgo the privileges of a liberal education and fit themselves to perform specific difficult manual tasks.” —Woodrow Wilson, then president of Princeton University.
