This book presents the report and findings of a commission established during the reign of Queen Victoria to assess the state of higher education at the universities of Aberdeen. The document opens with a detailed account of the political and social factors that led to the establishment of the commission and includes the original text of the royal mandate that formed its legal foundation. The commission's members were tasked with investigating the full scope of university affairs. They sought to examine internal governance, curricula, resources, endowments, and any other relevant factors contributing to or impeding educational quality. The included testimonies from prominent professors and administrators offer invaluable insights into the internal dynamics of university life. The report concludes with a series of recommendations intended to address perceived shortcomings, including a proposal for merging the two historic colleges into a single unified institution. The book's appendices include supporting materials such as financial and administrative records, further illuminating the inner workings of the universities at the time.
