‘England is the best place in which to begin this work. The excellence of the University of Oxford is without doubt the training of the ready gentleman who cannot be pushed off his feet by an attack upon the weaknesses of his personality. His training at Oxford gives him that secure self-possession and self-respect which commands the respect of his fellows. Our American students need have no fear that they will lose their nationality at Oxford, for they will find the English ideal of a gentleman exactly fitted for Anglo-Saxons everywhere. The more perfectly they accept its training in this regard the more ready they will be for the great work of extending our American influence in the councils of the world.’
Stubbs said, in his inaugural address as Professor of History at Oxford, ‘We want to train not merely students but citizens; and citizens of the great communities—the Church and the civilized world; to be fitted not for criticism or for authority in matters of memory, but for action.’ Oxford has long been the training-school for the great men of England, but she has of late years made it more and more her endeavour to conform to this ideal—that is, to train men for action. Whatever the defects of the system, it nevertheless remains true that the Oxford student is brought under the influence of the same scholastic training which the rulers of the British Empire have enjoyed; and he not only sees and feels the working of that machinery, but he is, as an undergraduate, intimately associated with the men who will within the next half-century lead in English life and thought.
Add to these opportunities and influences the advantages of travel in England and on the Continent during the half-year of Vacation, of becoming familiar with modern European languages, of studying political thought, the Press and public opinion, the institutions and customs and characteristics of the different countries, of getting a first-hand acquaintance with contemporary Europe (not to mention the advantages for the study of history and art), and of looking at American and Colonial affairs through European spectacles. The Japanese are sending students in great numbers from one country to another, students who observe and compare and test—and they are choosing and adopting the best which they find in each. Why should not other nations learn more from one another? Wider experience and wider knowledge mean broader and saner judgements, a truer perspective, a clearer vision, a juster and more sympathetic appreciation of the achievements, the methods, the objects, and the ideals of the contemporary nations, together with a better understanding of one’s own country and a better equipment for and a higher ideal of the duties and possibilities of citizenship.
