    https://rdc.reed.edu/v1/resources/bb3a44a7-9867-41e4-b0b3-f553f29249b7/thumb/128.jpgThis thesis examines the founding of Reed College as a problem in the history of education during the Progressive era. The author studies the intentions of the men influential in the college's early years, and the nature of the institution itself as it functioned. She concludes that this approach to educational history is more fruitful than the traditional attempt to classify a college or university as "progressive," and suggests that this approach be generally employed in studying the history of education in the early twentieth century
