Our Mission

Modern graduate schools have grown out of two nineteenth-century developments:  the emergence of German research universities, which prized advanced knowledge, and the development of American land-grant universities, which sought serviceable knowledge.  Graduate schools constitute the community where the most lively and rigorous minds of several generations work on the central problems of the time and of the disciplines.
