Summary "The History of University Education in Maryland" by Bernard C. Steiner is a historical account likely written in the late 19th century. The work delves into the evolution and establishment of various educational institutions in Maryland, emphasizing the complexities and challenges faced throughout the colonial era and beyond, highlighting both successful and failed attempts at higher education. The opening of the text outlines the attempts to establish collegiate education in Maryland during the colonial period, illustrating the state's progressive yet tumultuous journey toward educational advancement. It details specific initiatives, such as the founding of Maryland’s first college, Washington College, and various other colleges, both enduring and extinct, including St. John's College and the Methodist-affiliated Cokesbury College. The narrative reflects on the social and political landscapes that influenced these developments, emphasizing the interplay between education, culture, and the burgeoning sense of identity in early Maryland.
