| 520 | |a This article portrays early Princeton through a history of the College of New Jersey (which was then its official name) during the era of the American Revolution. It details how the untimely deaths of important leaders nearly brought the school down before it really got started, but then how the leadership of conscientious trustees and President John Witherspoon revived the institutions' fortunes. Princeton endured many trials and traumas in these years, including battle, military occupation, a disastrous fire, and student rebellion. Yet under the leadership of Witherspoon and his successors, Princeton forged a strong educational vision made up of republican political principles, Christianity in a moderate Presbyterian form, and learning that incorporated many features of the Enlightenment. The enduring power of this vision exerted a strong influence in the nation and an even more far-reaching influence in the Presbyterian church. | ||
