520    "In celebration of the 200th anniversary of Amherst 
       College, a group of scholars and alumni explore the 
       school's substantial past in this volume. *Amherst in the 
       World* tells the story of how an institution that was 
       founded to train Protestant ministers began educating new 
       generations of industrialists, bankers, and political 
       leaders with the decline in missionary ambitions after the
       Civil War. The contributors trace how what was a largely 
       white school throughout the interwar years begins 
       diversifying its student demographics after World War II 
       and the War in Vietnam. The histories told here illuminate
       how Amherst has contended with slavery, wars, religion, 
       coeducation, science, curriculum, town and gown relations,
       governance, and funding during its two centuries of 
       existence. Through Amherst's engagement with educational 
       improvement in light of these historical undulations, it 
       continually affirms both the vitality and the utility of a
       liberal arts education"--|cProvided by publisher.
