1. Is there still an elitist sense in schools such as the Ivy League that looks down upon knowledge that can be immediately utilized (page 14 of Traub) and if so, are their students negatively impacted by this?

2. Did the idea of having an institution with only the “purest intellectual elite” do anything for City College in the 20s and 30s besides increase its prestige?

3. Is the teaching method that involves primarily lecturing with little input from students hindering the original notion of students increasing intellectual wisdom, or is this style effective and necessary for the large student populations?
