191:, a well-known (analytical) philosopher of education from the London Institute visited Althouse College and spent several days lecturing and visiting with faculty and students. He helped change the instruction of philosophy to philosophy of education, offering several course outlines of philosophy of education courses taught at the University of London. The faculty at Althouse College also began experimenting with a new way of bringing philosophy to bear on educational practice - the teaching of philosophy of 'subjects,' e.g. philosophy of mathematics, philosophy of history, etc., but also philosophy of the elementary years for the elementary school teachers.

The students were not encouraged by this and complained the content was not relevant to their daily practice as teachers.
