GUTENBERG COLLEGE 2020-2021 CATALOG I think with you that nothing is of more importance for the public weal, than to form and train up youth in wisdom and virtue... wise and good men are, in my opinion, the strength of a state far more so than riches or arms. ~ Benjamin Franklin, 1750 ~ Gutenberg College 1883 University Street, Eugene, OR 97403 Telephone: 541-683-5141 Email: [email
