Excerpt from Lehigh Alumni Bulletin, Vol. 12: February, 1925 So far as I am aware, at no place has higher education ever been, self-supporting. It is subsidized through the generosity of individuals, by the church and through public taxation. Colleges and universities spend annually upon each of their students an amount varying from $300 to more than the student himself pays in fees. In each college graduate, therefore, there has been a cash investment on the part of the intsitution of from $1200 to $4000. This willingness to subsidize the education of individuals strikingly illustrates the es teem in which educational processes are held and the recognition of the need of modern society for an adequate number of individuals who are trained to cope with problems of civilized life.
