The Mansfield University Council of Trustees reaffirms the purpose of Mansfield University, as stated by former President Simon B. Elliot in 1912, to Strive to make education universal; that the rich and the poor, the child of those who have power and place, and of those who tread the lowly paths of life, shall receive alike the blessings of education … and invite equally and alike, without distinction of sex, or color, or race, or creed, or party, the children of all who may desire to participate in the opportunities here offered. That is the highest purpose for which Mansfield may be praised. 1 of 1 10/12/2020, 2:49 PM
