"During
the 1500s, the Spanish came to America (we were told in history
classes) for "gold, glory, and gospel." Merchants made money; soldiers
distinguished themselves in war; Catholic priests spread religion.
Surprisingly
enough, when we jump forward four centuries, we find that we can use
this mnemonic to understand our Education Establishment, one of this
country's more peculiar and inscrutable subcultures."
[American Thinker]
