Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Proceedings of the First Annual Meeting of the National Conference on University Extension: Held in Philadelphia, December 29-31, 1891, Under the Auspices of the American Society for the Extension of University Teaching
It seems almost incredible, looking back, that within one year of the time when the first centre of Extension teaching was established in Philadelphia, on November 3, 1890, more than two hundred such experiments were being carried on in nearly every State of the Union. We can attribute this only to the well-developed system of Extension teaching which had grown up in the course of more than a score of years' experiment in England, and the possibility of transferring it bodily to our soil.
