Taking as its primary point of emphasis the three-year doctoral program of George S. Counts at the University of Chicago in the years 1913-1916, this study examines the role which this great institution of learning and the city of which it was such a vibrant part played upon his later social, political, and educational thought. The investigation places the experiencs of "Metropolis and Academe" within the broadest possible cultural context, and the implication is made throughout that without the "Chicago experience" George S. Counts would not have emerged with quite the same intellectual attributes which seemed to characterize his distinguished career. Part I of the dissertation describes the intellectual crosscurrents which had impact upon Counts from the moment of his birth in 1889 until his graduation from the University of Chicago in 1916. Alone among institutions of higher learning in the United States, Chicago's Department of Sociology was in the vanguard of the great reform movement which had been spawned by the school of social pragmatism. Counts took courses in the Department of Sociology as well as in the School of Education, where there was a concerted effort to "professionalize" education. The paramount philosophical foundations of both sociology and education are discussed in Part II of the research to place Counts' training at the University of Chicago within a framework of American intellectual history. By far the largest section of the paper is Part III where the author discusses the sequential academic program of George S. Counts--courses and instructors. Not only are cameo biographies of his eighteen professors and their intellectual contributions presented, but an introduction is also made to six "hidden persuaders" who the author feels had a great intellectual influence upon Counts, even though they were not classroom instructors. Chicago's urban and academic environment is treated as a vibrant and colorful expression of American society. The actual graduation of George S. Counts from the University of Chicago in 1916 was actually on the occasion of the Quarter-Centennial Celebration of its founding. The importance of this event is depicted as a symbolic watershed in Counts' own life. Part IV, or the conclusion of the dissertation, is a discussion of eleven generalizations about the career of George S. Counts which were presented in the Introduction of the paper. . . .
