COLLEGE AND BUSINESS.
''I'MIK latest opinion on the much disputed
question of the business value of a college
education is that of Mr. diaries M. Schwab,
president of tin- United States Steel Corporation.
In an address t the students of St, George's
Kveninj; Trades S:!iool li'says:
BuceHti i not money making alone, And I want
to statu that of the truly great men I know in indus
trial and manufacturing lines none an-college bred
men who recievedan Industrial or mechanli al educa
tion, anil who worked ii l y perseverance and ap
plicantlon. Let nu! advise you all to an early start in life. The
boy wiiii die manual training and tin- common
school education who can start in life at sixteen or
seventeen can leave the hoy who goes to college till
he i- twetney or more so far behind in the race that
he can never catch up.
No doubt Mr. Schwab correctly reports the
results of his own experieno , but other men oi
dilli rent experience reach exactly the opposite
conclusion. Many a man of great wealth ami
high position who started with a common school
training or no lxiok learning at all is thoiOUghly
convincecd that he was handicapped in his strug-
gel, and determined that his children, though they
begin at the lowest round of the industrial lad
der, shall have the liest college education before
entering upon their business careen The differ
ing authorities suggest that probably it is all a
matter of point of view. One man sees the col
lege hred success. Mr. Schwab particulars says
that he does not count money making alone as
success. Therefore the inquiry concerning the
comparative accomplishments of the educated
and uneducated man in business is not to le an
swered by mere figures of salary or relative rank
at forty years of age. We must see which is the
happier and more useful in all the relations of
of life. When success is so measured, talk alxnit
one being so far ahead at the beginning of the
raise that toe other can never catch up is idle.
He may uot " catch up", but he may be the bet
ter rounded, more useful man, the one fur whom
life U the better worth living. The college bred
man may not fill some places in business as readily
as his common school trained rival, but other
thing! he doea better. To him and his knowl
edge of science and matheiuatices some of the
greatest advances and economies of manufacturing
arc due. Thetra'toeJ ah mists and electricians
are absolutely essential to industrial progress.
Wise nu n In every line of business are on the
lookout for assistants who will have not merely
efficiency and executive ability, but large intelli
gence, and hring to their aid not only technical
learning, but cultivated thinking capacity.
I )oul it less a college education which turns a
youth out on the world with the notion that he
is a superior being who is fitted by his college
diploma for al least a junior partnership in a
business which he knows nothing alioiit is not a
fit nrepration for industrial BUOOeat. This edu
cation is too often the stock in trade of many well
meaning Imivs, hut thousands of others leave col
lege with earnest purpose and alert minds, ready
to learn a business from the liegining as they
would a profession, and prepared to use in that
business as they learn it brains Well developed
by conscientious use of the advantages of a col
lege course. Success in business is largely a mat
ter of individual character. The college man
with the right stufl will get on, and the office
boy with the wrong stufl will fail. A flabby
college education is perhaps a worse prep irtions
for business than no education at all, and the col
legian's failure is much more conspicuous than
that of the office boy and creates a stronger pre
judice in the employer. The number of college
men in business is small compared with the wtn
mon school boys, so it is not remarkable that the
latter should predominate among the great men
of industry. That does not prove, however, that
the earnest college graduate willing to enter bus
iness in the right way has not a fair chance and
will not throughout his life find the college train
ing a BCOUrce of strength and happiness.
find so many admirer and approvers as it did in
earlier generations. The ruthless logic of the
survival of the fittest and the long agony of the!
aged and ficble who are trampled under foot ns
Dalit are tempered in these days by impulses of
eompassion and goodwill.
