“The term "informatics" was first defined by Saul Gorn of University of Pennsylvania in 1983 (Gorn, 1983) as computer science plus information science used in conjunction with the name of a discipline such as business administration or biology. It denotes an application of computer science and information science to the management and processing of data, information and knowledge in the named discipline.” FirstsUsedNamesTermInformationDisciplineComputerManagementUniversityDefinedAdministrationDataBiologyPlusApplicationComputer ScienceProcessingPennsylvaniaConjunctionsInformation ScienceBusiness AdministrationUniversity Of Pennsylvania Author:Saul Gorn
“For the establishment, philosophy is both an elitist and an idealist discipline: In high school, it is a compulsory subject; at university, they teach the idealist line.

“Violence or the threat of violence [must] never be permitted to influence the actions or judgments of the university community.

“Children whose curiosity survives parental discipline and who manage to grow up before they blow up are invited to join the Yale faculty.

“College football is no more of a minor league than, say, the universities' schools of journalism, engineering or music are. We can argue at another time whether football should occupy the same space on campus as those disciplines, but for now, it does. The critical point is that a coach is less concerned with preparing athletes for the next level than he is with molding them to fit a system that helps him win games, keep his job and, eventually, move on to a position with a more prestigious program.” ShouldDoeHelpingSchoolJobsMovingNextGamesWinningSpaceLevelsPositionFootballCollegeDisciplineFitConcernedProgramUniversityAthleteCriticalArguingCoachesJournalismLeagueEngineeringMinorsPreparingCampusNext LevelAnother TimeCollege FootballPrestigiousMolding Author:William C.

“Computing has gone from something tiny and specialized to something that affects every walk of life. It doesn't make sense anymore to think of it as just one discipline.

“I've been on a faculty in a university, and I felt it was incumbent on me to deal with the Bible not as something I was attempting to convert people to, or to have them enter into my religious experience, but rather as an academic and scientific discipline.” PeopleFeltReligiousDealsDisciplineUniversityFacultyAcademicAttemptingIncumbentsReligious Experience Author:Hershel Shanks
“It needs more than ever to be stressed that the best and truest educators are parents under God. The greatest school is the family. In learning, no act of teaching in any school or university compares to the routine task of mothers in teaching a babe who speaks no language the mother tongue in so short a time. No other task in education is equal to this. The moral training of the children, the discipline of good habits, is an inheritance from the parents to the children which surpasses all other. The family is the first and basic school of man.” MenNeedsFirstsChildrenSchoolMotherSpeakLanguageParentMoralTeachingHabitDisciplineEqualTrainingTasksUniversityTongueCompareRoutineInheritanceStressedTruestEducatorBabeGood HabitsMother Tongue Author:R.J.

“A university is not, primarily, a place in which to learn how to make a living; it is a place in which to learn how to be more fully a human being, how to draw upon one's resources, how to discipline the mind and expand the imagination; how to make some sense out of the big world we will shortly be thrown into.” WorldLifeMindHumansBigsImaginationHuman BeingsLearningDisciplineDrawsResourcesUniversityThrown Book:On the contrary Source: On the contrary
“The discipline of colleges and universities is in general contrived, not for the benefit of the students, but for the interest, or more properly speaking, for the ease of the masters. Its object is, in all cases, to maintain the authority of the master, and whether he neglects or performs his duty, to oblige the students in all cases to behave toward him as if he performed it with the greatest diligence and ability.” IfsInterestAbilityCasesObjectsStudentsCollegeMastersDutyDisciplineAuthorityBenefitsEconomicsUniversityEaseBehaveNeglectDiligenceColleges And Universities Author:Adam Smith
