Abstract | Describes how Robert M. Hutchins became the president of the University of Chicago while still in his early 30s. Points out that Hutchins subsequently became a leader in educational reform. Observes how the conflict between tradition and change manifests itself when new leadership is chosen, stating this offers an opportunity to define the purposes of an institution. (NL) |
