Read the following passage and choose the best answers to the questions.
By the end of the first quarter of the nineteenth century, a number of Eastern Institutions- Harvard, Yale,
Columbia and Pennsylvania- had some of the necessary ingredients of a university, but hardly yet the
point of view. They were little clusters of school and institutes. Indeed, after the Revolution, the schools
of Pennsylvania and Harvard had assumed the somewhat pretentious title of university, and shortly after,
the University of Virginia was founded under the guidance of Thomas Jefferson. In the South, Georgia
and later North Carolina began to rise. The substance in all these was mainly lacking though the title was
honored. There were rather feeble law, medical and divinity schools, somewhat loosely attached to these
colleges. It has been commonly recognized, however, that the first decade after the close of the Civil War,
that is, from about 1866 to 1876, was the great early flowering of the university in America.

a. the University of Pennsylvania b. the University of Virginia c. the University of Harvard d. the University of Columbia
