Samuel James Campbell - Early Life and Education

Early Life and Education

Campbell received a certificate in music from Shimer College in 1909; although it was then almost exclusively a girls' preparatory school, Shimer allowed occasional male day students.

Campbell subsequently studied at Beloit College through 1913, and received a bachelor of arts in economics from Stanford University in 1914. On October 10 of the same year, he married fellow Stanford graduate Ileen Bullis.

Famous quotes containing the words early, life and/or education:

    [My early stories] are the work of a living writer whom I know in a sense, but can never meet.
    Elizabeth Bowen (1899–1973)

    The light of memory, or rather the light that memory lends to things, is the palest light of all.... I am not quite sure whether I am dreaming or remembering, whether I have lived my life or dreamed it. Just as dreams do, memory makes me profoundly aware of the unreality, the evanescence of the world, a fleeting image in the moving water.
    Eugène Ionesco (b. 1912)

    As for the graces of expression, a great thought is never found in a mean dress; but ... the nine Muses and the three Graces will have conspired to clothe it in fit phrase. Its education has always been liberal, and its implied wit can endow a college.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
