  • 3 the Morrill Act of 1862 and Coordination Shaping the American University and the American State
    3 The Morrill Act of 1862 and Coordination Shaping the American University and the American State A variety of forces drove the emergence of the American university, the expansion of the American national state, and their shared devel- opment. While no single event was the catalyst, the origins of such development can be traced to the passage of the Morrill Act in 1862. Beyond being the most extensive and ambitious federal education pro- gram undertaken to that point in time, the Morrill Act helped spur the coordination and entrepreneurship that would be essential for the for- mation of research universities and for these universities’ evolving ser- vice both to and with the national state. The Morrill Act and the Origins of Entrepreneurship The American university’s fundamental contribution to policy and governance stemmed from institutional coordination and entrepre- neurial maximization of resources. The roots of this contribution lay in a Vermont congressman’s stubborn pursuit of agricultural legislation. A shopkeeper from Burlington, who received no formal education beyond the age of fifteen, Justin Morrill originally introduced his plan to establish agricultural colleges in 1857. The legislation passed both houses but was vetoed by President James Buchanan. Five years later, Morrill tried again. With the southern delegations having already seceded, Morrill’s legislation this time passed as the first piece of an extensive Republican development program.1 47 48 Ivory Towers and Nationalist Minds The Morrill Act provided land grants
