Ray Peat, "Letter correspondence with Bertrand Russell", p. 88

Dear Mr. Russell, I am sending you a copy of the Blake College bulletin. I think you will be interested to know of this school, for several reasons. The school is organized as a faculty owned corporation. Thus a high degree of instructional freedom is maintained. It is located in Mexico, and admits both U.S. and Mexican students, to reduce nationalistic bias as far as possible. The school places most emphasis on science (as defined, e.g., in your article “Science and Culture”), philosophy, and art. Our philosophy department, incidentally, is dominated by “Wittgensteinians,” rather than by “Blakeans.” The college cooperates directly with the World Committee for a Constitutional Convention, The American Life Sciences Foundation, The School of Living, and other active liberal organizations. The average IQ of students is now well over 145. The enclosed sheet indicates the level of achievement maintained, although the average student has had only two years of “higher education.”
