Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Reciprocal Obligations of Professors and Pupils: An Introductory Lecture
In the further consideration of this subj1 ct, 1 shall take a cursory view ofthe following propositions. First: It is an imperious duty of professors; to be prepared to communicate the requisite instruction in the department'which it is their province to fill.' This may appear, and certainly is, a mere truism; and it may be deemed a trespass on your time to introduce it. But, gentlemen, there have been instances in'all countries where med: cal schools have been established, of the appoint ment of unqualified teachers and what rs yet more to he lamented, the incumbent has often been defective in those habits of study and appli cation, the prompt and persevering exercise of which might countervail very much, that inherent, native deficiency, which is the calamity and not the crime ofits victim.
