  1. ^ [I]n 1937, Thomas Mann remarked that a plaque bearing the inscription "To the Living Spirit" had been torn down by the Nazis from a building at the University of Heidelberg. He suggested that the University in Exile adopt that inscription as its motto, to indicate that the "living spirit," mortally threatened in Europe, would have a home in this country. Alvin Johnson adopted that idea, and the motto continues to guide the division in its present-day endeavors. link, New School for Social Research Diarsipkan 2014-08-11 di Wayback Machine..
