The Purpose of Education – MLK Day

The Purpose of Education – 1947

“The function of education, therefore, is to teach one to think intensively and to think critically. But education which stops with efficiency may prove the greatest menace to society. The most dangerous criminal may be the man gifted with reason, but with no morals.”

Read the entire article, written Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. while a student at Morehouse College.
