EDITORS COMMENTS
James McCosh: A Pioneering Scottish-American Philosopher and Educator at Princeton University This evocative portrait captures James McCosh (1811-1894), a prominent Scottish-American philosopher and educational leader who left an indelible mark on Princeton University. McCosh was born on October 15, 1811, in Ayr, Scotland, and immigrated to the United States in 1833. He began his academic career at the University of Virginia, where he studied under Thomas Cooper and John Holtzclaw. In 1868, McCosh was appointed as the sixth president of Princeton University, a position he held until his retirement in 1888. During his tenure, he led the university through a period of significant growth and transformation. McCosh oversaw the expansion of the faculty, the establishment of new departments, and the construction of several new buildings. He also played a key role in the development of Princeton's graduate program, which helped to establish the university as a leading center of advanced scholarship. McCosh was a prolific writer and scholar, publishing numerous works on philosophy, education, and theology. His most famous work, "The Philosophy of the Human Mind," was first published in 1865 and went through several editions. McCosh's philosophical views were influenced by Scottish Common Sense Realism, and he is known for his emphasis on the importance of experience and the senses in the acquisition of knowledge. Despite his many accomplishments, McCosh faced significant challenges during his presidency. He was a controversial figure, and his strong opinions on various issues, including religion and politics, often drew criticism. Nevertheless, McCosh remained dedicated to his work and left a lasting legacy at Princeton University. This photograph captures McCosh in later life, with a serious expression and piercing gaze. The portrait serves as a reminder of the remarkable life and contributions of this pioneering Scottish-American philosopher and educator.
