Joseph W. Pennypacker enjoyed reading Theodore Roosevelt’s recent article, “A Noteworthy Project in Higher Education,” but wishes to point out what he views as an omission. In addition to the categories of state university, private university, and technical colleges, Pennypacker points to liberal arts colleges as a fourth type of institution of higher education, and argues for their importance.
