Excerpt from Six Letters Addressed to the Editor of the Oxford Herald: On the Subject of an Address Presented by Certain Noble and Other Distinguished Individuals to the Heads of Colleges, in November, 1845, and Now Printed Privately, (Not Published,) for Distribution Among a Limited Number of Persons Most Interested
If such a plan of improvement be entertained by the authorities of Oxford, the details of its execution would remain to be considered. On these we do not venture to enter; but desire to record our readiness, whenever the matter may proceed further, to aid, by personal exertions or pecuniary contributions, in the promotion of a design which the exigencies of the country so clearly seem to require.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. An 1846 text examines the necessity of improving England's education system, specifically for lower and middle-class students. The author claims that affordable education opportunities are lacking between secondary schools and university. He proposes that the universities either add new departments to existing colleges or found new institutions entirely to meet this need. Such institutions should offer a university education for 80 pounds per year. This text is a thought-provoking contribution to a historical discussion that continues today about the proper scope and cost of higher education.
