Tóm tắt
In tracing the history of Huntington College during the Vietnam War, Jeffrey B. Webb provides a detailed examination of the religious underpinnings of the institution associated with the Church of the United Brethren in Christ, where a middle ground between liberalism and fundamentalism was sought in the growing evangelical movement. Within this context, Webb examines how world events in the postwar era came to impact the way faculty and students engaged their studies in the liberal arts tradition. Furthermore, he examines the way American politics interacted with the curriculum and co-curricular activities, as the college sought to encourage forms of democratic participation. He shows that the campus community was largely conservative, but the politics of the era turned some students toward liberal ideas and Democratic Party activism. Elements of the late-1960s counterculture also made their appearance in their own unique ways. Dissent against the Vietnam War, as Webb shows, did exist; however, it existed in a way that fit within an ethos of temperate debate and disagreement. The kind of disruptive campus activism characteristic of other institutions was not embraced by student leaders or other members of the campus community. © The Editor(s) (if applicable) and The Author(s), under exclusive licence to Springer Nature Switzerland AG 2022.
