From Sergei Grushko, a look at the choic­es of Quak­er insti­tu­tions in a time of war:

> World War II pre­sent­ed a severe chal­lenge for Amer­i­can col­leges. But per­haps no group faced a more dif­fi­cult dilem­ma than the insti­tu­tions of high­er edu­ca­tion found­ed by Quak­ers. How could they rec­on­cile a centuries-old wit­ness to peace with the need to survive?

I didn’t know much of this his­to­ry and nev­er thought about the exis­ten­tial threats to high­er edu­ca­tion in the 1940s when cam­pus­es were large­ly emp­tied of their male students.
