Free school summery.
“Free school” by Dewitt Clinton summarizes his thoughts and views on the different educational reforms. He believes that free education would be create equality among people from different classes. He stated , the fundamental error of Europe has been to confine the light of knowledge to the wealthy while the humble and the depressed have been excluded from its participationâ He is saying that if Europe were to give education to the humble and depressed then it would create equality with everyone. H also claims that extreme ignorance is the cause of the bad governments. He says that New York has a different eligible plan by having a fund that accumulates to the support of common schools and will never be destroyed or diverted. I really enjoyed reading this story and one sentence that caught my attention was âin those state it is an uncommon to find a poor man who cannot read and write, as it is rare to see someone in Europe who can.
