Patrick J. Healy - Elbert Hubbard - Bog

The book ""Patrick J. Healy"" by Elbert Hubbard is a biography of the first African-American president of a predominantly white college in the United States. Patrick J. Healy was born into slavery but went on to become a Jesuit priest and a scholar, earning a PhD from a prestigious university in Europe. He then served as the president of Georgetown University in Washington, D.C. for over 20 years, during which time he transformed the institution into a respected center of higher education. The book explores Healy's life and achievements, as well as the challenges he faced as a black man in a predominantly white society. Through interviews with Healy's colleagues, friends, and family members, as well as archival research, Hubbard provides a detailed and insightful portrait of this remarkable figure in American history.THIS 24 PAGE ARTICLE WAS EXTRACTED FROM THE BOOK: Olympians: Elbert Hubbard's Selected Writings Part 2, by Elbert Hubbard.
