Excerpt from History of Cotner University: Including the Early Religious and Educational Movement of the Christian Church in Nebraska
The spirit of adventure and speculation entered largely into these new enterprises. They were joint stock companies created for financial gain. The towns started universities in order to advertise the locality. The high ideals of the true educator seem to have been lacking in most cases although the object as set forth in the charters was worthy enough, to promote the general educational interests and to qualify students to engage in the several pursuits and employments of society and to discharge honorably and usefully the various duties of life.2 The propagation of religious denominationalism was not their great object although the charters read thus: The profession of any particular religious faith shall not be required of those who become its students.2 There was doubt in the minds of some, however, as to whether the non-christian had a right to attend such schools because the profession of any particular reli gions faith shall not be required, indicating that all students must profess some religious faith.
