Famous quotes containing the words university and/or presidents:

    “The most important function of the university in an age of reason is to protect reason from itself.”
    —Allan Bloom (1930–1992)

    “A president, however, must stand somewhat apart, as all great presidents have known instinctively. Then the language which has the power to survive its own utterance is the most likely to move those to whom it is immediately spoken.”
    —J.R. Pole (b. 1922)
