Excerpt from The Citizen in His Relation to the Industrial Situation: Yale Lectures Somewhat more than two years ago, Mr. William E. Dodge gave to Yale University a fund whose objects are conveyed in the accompanying causes, "I desire to mate a gift to the University for the purpose of promoting among its students and graduates, and among the educated men of the United States, an understanding of the duties of Christian citizenship and a sense of personal responsibility for the performance of those duties. "For the furtherance of the purpose in view, it is my desire that the income of the fund thus given should be paid each year to a lecturer of distinguished attainments and high conception of civic responsibilities, who shall deliver a coarse of lectures on a topic whose understanding will contribute to the formation of an intelligent public sentiment, of high standards of the duty of a Christian citizen, and of habits of action to give effect to these sentiments and these standards. The lectures thus provided are to be known as the Yale Lectures on the Responsibilities of Citizenship." About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
