Excerpt from Inaugural Address: Delivered by the Rev. Stephen Olin, President of Randolph-Macon College, on the Occasion of His Induction Into Office, 5th March, 1834 The general diffusion of knowledge, whether produced by the progress of liberty or by other causes, leads by sure and obvious tendencies. To the establishment and support of the higher seminaries of learning, It multiplies the aspirants for literary distinction and the rewards and employments of lite rary men. It discovers latent genius and slumbering ambi tion and directs them to Colleges and Universities, as the pro per field for their cultivation and display. Common educa tion produces intellectual tastes and wants in a community, and these must be supplied by the labours of educated men. The works of able writers are appreciated and their ef forts rewarded.
