This article describes the school that Johnathon Rice and his colleagues from Rollins college created in 1933. It was the only US college at the time that had no trustees or president. Attendance in class wasn't required by students, but they were allowed to help cultivate the school through farming and voting at school meetings with similar authority to the professors.
In this article, Johnathon Rice is described as hard to get along with. He wrote a book called "I Came Out of the 18th Century" in which he says his disposition would've been better suited to life in the 18th century.
Johnathon Andrew Rice talks about the "Extraordinary Student" of the time. Rice describes this student as quite lost in modern curriculum, and really not all that "extraordinary." This journal article functions as a satire of the educational system that replaced a classical education.
