Comment on Booker's educational philosophy at Tuskegee.

Washington and Davidson shared a vision to teach their students far more than books, including bathing, caring for their teeth and clothing, diet, table manners, keeping their room's clean, and the practical knowledge of some industry that would allow them to make a living. Since agriculture was such a large part of life in the South, they wanted to ensure that graduates returned to their plantation districts and showed their communities how to improve farming with new ideas.
