UIu-rlin made nine first downs while State was accumulating five. 1929 In line with past changes, Oberlin came close to turning itself into a university, complete with various graduate schools in music, theology, business, and science. But the faculty voted down the university idea whenever it came up. Instead, Oberlin began in the early 20th Century, during the long presidency of Henry Churchill King, to play the role it has been playing ever since with spectacular success tthough the role has always had its criticsi: that of a pre-professional liberal arts feeder school to the country's leading post-graduate universities. Wheras in the 19th Century Oberlin graduates typically headed in large numbers into the ministry or school teaching, now increasing numbers of them went on to graduate school to prepare for careers in law, medicine, social work, government service, and above all - higher education: scholarship and teaching. Two Oberlin graduates would one day receive the Nobel Prize for their distinguished research in physics and in medicine. They were not alone in their quest for new knowledge. Since 1920, Oberlin has been a larger source of students headed on to the Ph.D. than any other college in America. 23
