Description
"Robert F. Pace looks at the world of male student college life in the antebellum South. Through extensive research into records, letters, and diaries of students and faculty from more than twenty institutions, Pace creates a vivid portrait of adolescent rebelliousness struggling with the ethic to cultivate a public face of industry, respect, and honesty. These future leaders confronted authority figures, made friends, studied, courted, frolicked, drank, gambled, cheated, and dueled - all within the established traditions of their southern culture."--BOOK JACKET.
First Sentence
AN ASSESSMENT of college students: "They attend classes but make no effort to learn anything"; "They frequently learn what they would better ignore"; "On obscure points they depend upon their own judgment . . . so they become masters of error."
