Only a century ago, almost all state universities held compulsory chapel services, and some required Sunday church attendance as well. Today the influence of religion in the intellectual and cultural life of America's preeminent colleges and universities has all but vanished. Marsden explores how, and why, these dramatic changes occurred.
